    A very clear and informative video. You make no assumptions of your viewer's knowledge of a plane which makes for a good teacher. I was taught by my big brother how to maintain and use my woodwork tools many years ago but still enjoyed watching your video. He also showed me how to make an oily rag tin or Rag-in-a can which I spotted in the background. Nice to see the old tricks carried through the years. Well done.

    Nice Job! One tip: You can adjust the frog (forward and backward) without removing the blade/chip breaker. The trick is to loosen the frog screws just enough to where you can turn the frog adjustment screw. (Paul Sellers makes mention of this as well in a few of his videos.)

    When these planes were introduced at our school carpentry shop in the mid 60's, the technique to set them up, as you demonstrate here, was never properly taught to us young kids. There is a (No.4) going for sale in my area and I will enquire after it as I am building up a small DIY collection for work around the house.. That was a lovely renovation too.👍

    @pemtax557 4 роки тому

    Very well done Jay ... I restore planes as a hobby now that I'm retired. Everything you did was spot on less one thing, when you flatten the bottom of the sole, the plane should be completely assembled with the iron (blade) completely and safely retracted within the plane. The bottom is actually under a certain amount of stress with everything installed and the lever cap tensioned. Great video with one of the best illustrations of setting the iron I've ever seen.
    Thanks for sharing your talent and experience,
    Cheers, Dave

    I appreciate that you take the effort to show us what brands/types of materials you are using. Knowing that you're using window cleaner as lapping fluid and 3 in 1 oil for lubrication is really helpful for beginners (like me), who don't have a good conception of what exactly is meant by "lapping fluid" and "oil".

    I'm about to embark on a restoration project. It's an old Corsair. It would appear that it's not a great plane. Probably a good one for me to begin a restoration project with. Your video is great. It's clear and your preparation is well thought out and logical. Nice to listen to someone who is articulate using the correct nomenclature so that the process is easy to follow. Thank you again for this video. I feel confident to go ahead with my restoration after having watched your instructional. -Bob

  • @clutteredchicagogarage2720
    @clutteredchicagogarage2720 Рік тому

    Great video. I just bought some used planes of various styles that need to be restored. I've only owned small block planes that don't have chip breakers, and I didn't know the right offset to use between the blade edge and chip breaker. This video and a couple others helped me with that.
    In general, your process is very thorough and also practical. I like your usage of PVC pipe to clean the rust off the parts. I'll probably use citric acid solution (comes in powder form that you dissolve in water and smells like lemons) to take off the rust because I hate the smell of vinegar.
    Thanks so much for explaining what all the various screws are for. While I could figure it all out, it's good to know, for example, that the lever cap should be loose enough to allow the blade to be adjusted back and forth while the lever cap is in place. Since I've never used this style of plane, I didn't know if you're supposed to loosen the lever cap when adjusting the blade depth or keep the lever cap loose enough so the depth can be adjusted without flipping up the lever on the lever cap. It makes sense that you're supposed to keep it loose enough to be able to adjust the depth without flipping the lever.
    I believe I saw another video where someone honed the front edge of the chip breaker to ensure that it sits flush with the blade rather than having any imperfections. I think you missed this. It's probably not a big deal if the chip breaker hasn't been damaged.
    I love the style of your videos. You often have really creative and clever solutions for simplifying a particular wood working challenge or finding a way to get good precision out of your builds, but your presentation is always straightforward, matter-of-fact and humble. Thanks for posting all this great content on UA-cam to help others learn!

  • @mmgross144
    @mmgross144 8 років тому +1

    Great job...Rob Cosman would also be pleased. Just a note, although it might be harder to accomplish on such a narrow piece of wood, a slight skewing of the plane while pressing forward produces a slicing effect that makes the plane easier to use. Rob Cosman taught me that.

  • @tenaciousjeebs
    @tenaciousjeebs 4 роки тому +2

    A few other plane restoration videos I've seen (e.g. Paul Sellers) tell you to lap the sole flat with the blade/chip breaker/cap iron installed and under tension (but with blade backed out).

    • @spudpud-T67
      @spudpud-T67 3 роки тому

      Correct, the bed flexes a lot and needs to be ground flat with the same tensions as it will have when being used.

  • @sigguy1361
    @sigguy1361 8 років тому

    Nicely done, Jay. I went into plane-collection mode a year or so ago, snatching up all the "homeless" Stanleys I could find, with hopes of restoring them to working condition someday. I've got about 25 of the regular planes like you have there, ranging from #2 to #8, with multiples of each, and I also acquired a couple of #55's and #45's, with most of the cutters as well. Right now they are gathering dust in the shop, but someday they will be "new" again. Cheers.

(I also noticed my blade was getting easily clogged - so glad you showed how to adjust the frog.) Instead of starting with trepidation, after watching this video, I'm excited to start with confidence! Thank you so much for sharing your method. Awesome work, Jay! Cheers!

    It's really a great feeling restoring unloved old tools, I've done this more than a few times now with planes, spokeshaves, calipers etc picked up at my local market and I think brought back into perfect condition. I use all of them! Some of the engineering/metalurgy seems to have been forgotten - I have an old wood block plane iron forged with something called "tungsten steel" - forget O1,A2, PMV11 this iron would outlast the lot!!

  • @capechronicler
    @capechronicler 8 років тому

    Great video, hope you don't mind if I add a few tips here from a long term Stanley bench plane user. First, there is usually a lot of slack in the depth mechanism. If you back the blade out (reduce the depth of cut) and then use it there is a good chance that the blade will get pushed further back (you simply won't be able to understand why the thing is suddenly not working any more). To prevent this, if you back the blade out just spin the adjuster wheel in the opposite direction until you feel resistance- don't worry, you are not putting the blade back down, just taking out the slack. This locks the blade in position and prevents it from being pushed back in. Second- when you put the chip breaker and blade assembly into the plane and lock it in place, give the angle adjuster a wiggle from side to side a couple of times. This sets the blade to its proper depth in the assembly. If you don't do this what tends to happen is that you set the depth (usually by turning the wheel a mystifying amount) to where you want it, then decide to adjust the angle, at which point the blade depth changes drastically and you need to reset it all over again. Three- and this probably goes for all planes- an alternative to knowing if you have the angle set to dead straight which I was taught. If the blade is straight then the shavings come out straight- if it is not then the shavings tend to come out in the direction of the deepest cut. Fourth, be careful if you inadvertently bang the plane into something whilst using it (like if you are securing a board to the bench with a clamp or something). The jolt can often cause the blade to be pushed out, causing the next pass to be a deeper cut, and this will always be on the final, smoothing pass- causing your hard earned, crisp,clean edge to be a) torn to shreds, b) the blade never comes out straight so the angle will either cause the edge of the blade to dig into a board face, or make your square edge completely skew. This is annoying and time consuming.

    Great video!! I recently received the exact same model of stanley bailey #5 from my wife's grandfather. It needs exactly what you did to this one.

    You have inspired me to purchase a Stanley #5 and restore it. It will be my first hand plane ever. Thank you Jay.

      It went great and I bought a second and restored it, then turned it into a scrub plane.

      When you were restoring your planes, did you ever find the front portion of your frog (the part that gets closest to the mouth) was nicked or damaged from rust? I have some fairly decent gouges on a #5 Stanley I’m restoring and I’m not sure not what to do about it. Hopefully that made sense!

    Fantastic video, the tutorial is engaging and crystal clear, and the production values are excellent. Picked up that exact model of plane for $50AU the other day, coincidentally - I believe I'm looking at my first restoration project!

    This video was super helpful for the whole process. I've used this to restore a few planes now (along with the tip to neutralize the vinegar with baking soda from the comments) and they look good as new. Thanks!

    I've watched this about three times now. Eventually I'll get up the nerve to tackle this. I've got a couple of Stanley #5's that need restoring. Thanks for posting, Jay.

    One tool I've always wanted to learn how to use & one of my favorites as well. I've always had this fear of destroying a great tool so I never bought a really good plane. Watching Paul Sellers, Tom Fidgen, & yourself I can say I think I'm ready for my first great plane & learn how to use it. Great job Jay

    This is just what I needed. I got a Bailey #5 that is complete but very rusty. It looks to have been in very good shape before getting rusty.

    Sometimes when I'm upset, I go to your channel and watch as many videos as I can. Each of your videos always teach me so much. Thank you, Jay! You're an inspiration to watch sir.
