I just saw the video that Rex did rebuilding this plane. He did a beautiful job of it.

[@joelhollingsworth2374]

So glad the orange paint incident was only kayfabe & didn't actually prevent further collab between you & HTR. Congrats on this project finally coming together despite so many obstacles along the way!!

[@garygill7960]

I watched Rex's video too. Thank you for sharing.

[@robertmcclenning5696]

Bought a ticket for a good cause. Thanks for doing this.

[@orellinvvardengra6775]

I escaped to the room as my pc is busy installing a large quantity of things and I had to much ice cream. Super excited to see this video aaaand I’m starting to get sleepy. Booooo! Lol! I swear I can stay up for this, the only one I’m unfamiliar with is green beetle(?) but I’m going to be checking everybody’s video out. This is an awesome build.

[@theidlehandsworkshop3884]

Got me some tickets, always on board to help my brothers and sisters !!!

[@SalfordCharityWorker]

Enjoyed your video. Good luck with the raffle. Chapeau for the effort on the octagonal knob.

[@ssrattus]

Thanks James!

[@seanallard3659]

You guys are the best. Thanks for supporting thee PHP

[@ianpearse4480]

A thing of beauty. I love the Purple Heart Project. Fantastic. Thank you all involved in this project, we veterans appreciate it more than words can say. Cheers.

[@karolskakes388]

A fine tool that will last the youngest wood worker their whole life! All involved should be proud.

[@nanettil]

You are a fantastic storyteller! Great video!😊

[@upsidedowndog1256]

A very beautiful tool! Purple Heart Project is a great cause.

[@clydebalcom3679]

Thank you for supporting the people who defend us.

[@swiss_2k]

I think the original restored look would have been better looking. But the cutting blade is amazing.

[@TomHaley-cy4cc]

very fun collaboration!

[@notumbusbumbus3871]

Comment on the short you made about a strop - on wood or free-handed. As a shoemaker, and, as did all barbers for ages, the leather strop had a metal grip in one end with a leather tie attached, which you tied to the end of a solid support - like the work bench. The other end was shaped as a sort of handle. One would grip the handle and pull the strop tight, and then begin stropping. Additionally, there was sometime a piece of thick waved canvas the same shape as the strop, that one would turn to the front/top and use to remove any final burrs. Just FYI, thanks.

[@vincenthill3434]

Great job, James!

[@iainmcculloch5807]

OK, so she started out as a plain plane, but now she's anything but plain, even though she is still a plane. That is a beautiful result. Makes me think of proverbial swans and ducklings.

[@triune_blades]

Absolutely gorgeous!

[@JNRII]

Glad you got Rex involved. Because of the project, I found you. Great work

[@paco_vazquez]

Oh dude, just watched all available videos on this collaboration! Green Beetle made me laugh so hard.

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

Love his videos!

[@GreenBeetle]

Beautiful work! Files, rasps, augers, hand saws - such precision.

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

Same to you. That was an amazing piece of blacksmithing.

[@MCsCreations]

You guys killed it! I was already subscribed to most of you and I had no idea you guys knew each other. 😬

[@conormow]

​@@WoodByWrightHowToalso, Green Beetle's video is a red-hot take that you need a short naming all the bits of a plane!

[@dallen521]

Thank you for everyone taking a part in helping veterans.

[@robohippy]

Me, being a lathe person, am wondering if it would be easier to turn the front knob first and then carve it into the octagon..... Nice project.

[@ryanstieglitz8077]

Comment down below! Super awesome collaboration! Watching them all.

[@skateboardist1686]

This is the best video I’ve seen of yours yet.

[@charlesmartin1079]

Great content! Really glad to see these "lost tools" brought back to life to use anouther 100-years.

[@vincethomrenaissanceman1731]

Would be fun if there were a diy kit to make one of these.

[@andrewking1122]

As a veteran I would like to say thank you for supporting efforts to help veterans, good video, love the resto-mod on the plane!

[@jasonfaulkner3215]

Absolutely beautiful

[@billstewart-pd5qc]

Nice work on this project. Many hands make light work. Some one is going to get a great plane. Well dune.

[@terristroh3965]

Restoring a plane is a labor of love for the craft. You gentlemen did a wonderful job.

[@TeamMaJoLP]

so competent yet you make it feel like possible even for beginners. thanke you from beirut!1!!

[@nickmastro9287]

Great project for an even greater cause!

[@J.A.Smith2397]

Ty for your contribution to php!

[@WoodenBoatBen]

A great project and a great cause.

[@davidsmethurst4318]

Lovely job. It would be great to see the japanning part as well. 👍

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

That is on hand tool rescue. There's links to all of them in the description.

[@garyhamlin2595]

the knob was the best

[@hugodesrosiers-plaisance3156]

Thank you for laying out the basic sequences of these builds for us! Very clear, and I especially like the cross-lamitation idea. Cheers

[@bobbenzuly7893]

Congrats to all the makers on this project! Truly enjoyed the collaboration among all of you!!

[@NickLuker]

Beautiful plane and a great showing of what you can do when you collaborate with others. All those personal touches each of you adds that no one person could do as effectively on their own. Much WOW.

[@RexKrueger]

What meticulous work!

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

That was a fun project all around. Almost 3 years of shipping at around the world.

[@rheum976]

This collaboration was such a great idea. Looking forward to checking out the others' perspectives!

[@nerknerk8834]

Definitely worth a comment!

[@mskopets]

Excellent cause, beautiful plane, going to get ticket.

[@scottswineford6714]

Beautiful work

[@timberanvil3788]

Certainly on the subject of Purple Heart Project, you and Rex need to do a collaboration with Rob Cosman. This is a gorgeous piece! Excellent work to all contributors!

[@kz.irudimen]

Rob Cosman, the great chinese tool pusher

[@timberanvil3788]

@@kz.irudimen I'd hardly consider him a "pusher". He demonstrates that you don't need to spend several hundred dollars on a Lie Nielsen when you can get very acceptable performance from overseas variants. I always strive to buy American...but I simply don't make Lie Nielsen money and if that's the type of tools he "pushed" his videos would depict a substantial barrier of accessibility to the craft of woodworking reserving it only for people who have significant disposable income.

[@timberanvil3788]

I'd also like to add that Rob's video on hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery was absolutely priceless - I went from never making such a joint to building a display table for my mother with 16 exquisitely clean and snug mortise and tenon joints.

[@kz.irudimen]

@@timberanvil3788 What's the reason not to recommend Veritas then ? Except for the fact he's had a lawsuit against them and his lawyers told him not to mention them ever even though he's canadian. I don't care about US made, I just find it sad that because of Woodriver's NA exclusivity agreement with Qiangsheng you guys are paying twice as much compared to the prices in Europe/China, where there is competition and those tools are sold under 4 or 5 brands. And instead of realizing you're getting scammed by people like Rob Cosman, you're cheering and asking for more.

[@timberanvil3788]

@@kz.irudimen dude people can buy whatever tools they want. I personally own zero wood river tools. I've got a veritas dovetail saw and Mk-II honing gauge. Everything else is antiques I've restored. I'm not trying to make you like Rob Cosman but in the scope of the Purple Heart Project, I believe Rob has had a profoundly positive impact on the lives of a lot of veterans. As a veteran myself, I sincerely appreciate his dedication to the cause.

[@timothymallon]

"Over The Top" doesn't even begin to describe it. It's become The Plane Of Theseus!

[@stevenolson8504]

Beautiful plane

[@chagildoi]

So beautiful

[@LaverneLovatt]

This plane is very similar to one I was given of my Dad's. Thanks for the memories. I will not do this to mine as it has my Dad;s sweat still in it.

[@danielelse3914]

Awesome support for the Purple Heart Project 💜

[@giveemtheboot5123]

Does it have each of the creators signature/mark on each respective part? I think that would be great to have on the plane

[@מעייןהמלבלבתחייםםםם]

You were all created a beautiful plane together!!!

[@trevdog7945]

Great video as always!

[@davidpetersen4208]

Great project.

[@allenguffey9370]

Beautiful!!!

[@rawr2u190]

That looks really really nice, the grain direction and octagon especially. I like how it all came together too.

[@jonrost5574]

You all are amazing for doing this!

[@c.a.g.1977]

Very cool colab, James! The plane came out awesome!

[@AllanMacMillan]

I wonder how many man hours in total went into this restoration, it is an impressive result.

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

Not completely sure. But it was a few. It was fun as we've been working on this almost 3 years now and it's been shipped back and forth across the world

[@tonyennis1787]

This is a helpful snide comment. Oh,. and the plane is beautiful.

[@vince55sanders]

Wright On!

[@darodes]

Love these collabs! I’ve learned so much from you and Rex and can just soak up all the content lol

[@dereksmith2910]

Super job. I am fascinated by restoring tools with a history.

[@woodworkingandepoxy643]

Bought a raffle ticket for this already. Hoping I can get a few more before the drawing. Y'all did a beautiful job

really great compilation!!

[@mikegray-ehnert3238]

Beautiful work, like the octagonal knob!

[@jimbo2629]

That knob is asking for a brass screw😀

[@alanlewis2241]

Wow that is an amazing Plane. I just recently restored one for a friend of mine, and he loves his exact same model and date.

[@joycewallace7306]

Cool Bobby

[@michaeldoto4673]

Sexification 😳😳... yep, the perfect description of you gentlemen accomplished. Well done. And a huge thank you to all who support the Purple Heart Project. All veterans have earned all the gratitude, love, respect and support we can provide them with.

[@MCsCreations]

Pretty amazing work, James! It turned out beautiful! 😃 You know, that reminds me of something... Once I bought a needle file set from China, but when it arrived... They weren't files, but rasps! (What, to tell the truth, made me happy! 😂) Either way, you should get it as well! Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@RageBarrage]

This looks like a very nice tool for a great cause! Any chance you'd be up for adding a quantity adjuster for adding more than one raffle ticket to the cart, or is it just one ticket/chance per person?

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

Unfortunately because I have it listed as a digital item it won't let you buy more than one at a time. You can buy more but not at the same time you have to do another order. I'm trying to fix that but so far haven't been able to find a way to get around it in the system

[@nelsvantoor5159]

You guys made it into a gorgeous tool, indeed!

[@wouterengels7769]

Does that mean that this is a plane-restoration-video-recreation-video?

[@Apillicus]

Lovely work! I need to try an octagonal Knob

[@tritian5874]

Hey, i'm a long time viewer that is finally able to return to woodworking! I have been slowing re-buying the larger shop tools I had to unfortunately get rid of a while back. (example: just got a 38" wooden lathe today for a b-day present(so, so, so excited lol)) I was wondering if you had an opinion on what are a couple tools that you suggest I should make now that I have a functioning woodworking shop. skill levels needed are not really an issue either. I made a table saw sled, i threw together a crappy little router table, i set up a corner work brench with wrap wround pegboard, ect. maybe you have some suggestions on some hand tools I could make and kill some time with? i would really appreciate it, I need some small projects atm, i'm going through a low time in life right now.

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

usually my answer is make the tools you don't have but would soon need. a hand router is a good one. you could make some hand screw clamps. you can never have enough of those.

[@flashwashington2735]

Thanks interesting.

How can we purchase more than one raffle ticket? Would love to win the plane but want to support the cause even more. I love what you guys do and even more when your kindness and generosity helps others. Fan for life good sir.

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

I wish I could figure out a way to do that. Unfortunately with the system I'm using it won't let you purchase multiple digital goods.

[@5StoryWoodWorks]

@@WoodByWrightHowTo well then maybe a link to donate directly. Good news is, keeps it fair if everyone only gets one.

[@nikmabc]

It seems that everyone else had the harder jobs. I suspect that James has pre-made knobs and handles; and he pretends to make them. ;)

[@PedroPereira-ut6pp]

Racing stripes on a plane? Only needs the rockets ehehe

[@robertspeer]

Sorry to hear your NAS got hacked. I did a bunch of research a while back and landed on using a password manager called DashLane. It’s not free, but it makes having high security and unique passwords for all your login manageable. The family plan is affordable and keeps those on your home network secure so they don’t accidentally creat security issues. There’s also a nice password sharing tool. It’s worth the cost and effort IMHO.

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

I have an industrial grade password system. But it was a problem with the software on the nas apparently around 50% of the ones I had were hacked

[@davidlynn7161]

Comment down below. Very pretty work.

[@willemkossen]

That is one beautiful tool! Is it possible to win it if one lives outside the USA?

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

Yes. I will ship internationally

[@suzz1776]

Is there a way to do things like this if u don't have a vice or bench???. The only space I have to work is on a table outside and I have a wood stump from an old tree with a belt over it to use as a clamp for small things. If there is, can u make a video please showing diff ways to hold down pieces so they can be sawed and chiseled.... Thxs

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

Where there is a will there is a way. There are lots of interesting ways of workholding without a vice. But you may want to think about making a bench on bench. It's basically a small bench top you can store away but you can take it out and put it on top of a table or countertop to do woodworking on. It is all possible to do without the bench but the bench really makes everything so much easier
