Bjorn.LaSanche Posted December 17, 2021 Report Share Posted December 17, 2021 Great work. I love taking my 6 to this level. Only to come back the following day to small areas of flash rust. Oiling them enough to not rust leave too much oil to contaminate the wood. I read somewhere to use mineral spirits on the metal when using them as that won’t leave the type of deposits other oils will on wood. finding and acquiring old planes is a fun step back in history. Here is one of the sites I use to era date my planes with. https://virginiatoolworks.com/2015/02/16/stanley-trademark-stamps/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Woozle Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 I've recently got a Woden no.5 to restore, one side wing had been broken off and welded back in the past but it looks a solid repair, the handgrip is broken too but repairable. Cleaned up and resharpened, it should be a decent addition to my toolbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
