Record No 50 Combination Plane Restoration

  • In this video I will be restoring a record no 50 plough plane. For this restoration I wanted to try a couple of new things. First was sandblasting and second nickel plating.
    Over the last few weeks I have been destroying and rebuilding my tiny workshop to accommodate a well needed sand blaster. This video was it’s maiden voyage.
    Since I was trying to learn new skills this restoration was a true test of patience. My first attempt at making a nickel electrolyte failed. Thankfully the second attempt was a success.
    After dismantling and blasting all the parts it was time to attempt plating. Prior to plating I cleaned the parts in a 50/50 solution of water and hydrochloric acid followed by a rinse in clean water. Since this was my first time plating I could hardly see any difference in the finish. However the nickel was disappearing so I must have been doing something right. After many hours of plating the parts were done and ready to assemble. As I started assembling I realised the tool was missing a depth gauge. Although this part isn’t always needed I was slightly disappointed in myself for not recognising it earlier. Thankfully the rest of the parts went back together and I was able to plane a relatively nice channel.
    I hope you enjoy the video and subscribe for more restorations.
    Here is a link to the blast cabinet I bought.

    This cabinet didn’t come with instructions. Patience is required to assemble.
    Compressor used: Hyundai HY3150S

    Nic e restoration, but on the video side of things you should never use auto white balance, the colours keep shifting all the time and it is distracting. In video any time the colour or size of an object changes in the frame the camera tries to compensate for the colour change it perceives. Instead choose a colour temperature setting and stick with it as long as you are shooting under the same light source. Or do a manual white balance with a white card (or any neutral surface) and stick with it for the whole scene under that same light source. Other than that, geat work, i didn't kno Nickel plating could work on such surfaces.

    You won't be able to crosscut without sharp nickers. There are other names for the cutter I'm talking about, but it is the little tear drop item under the screw just ahead of the cutting blade on the side of the plane. It was never removed. sharpened, or refinished.
    Otherwise, you did excellent work I could not duplicate without a lot of research and practice.

      @@mytinyworkshop1213 Hiya Great work on the plane. I'm rather jealous I have a 44 and it's no ware near as complete as your 50. Something that might help, your plough plane has two sure cutters, they're held in by the little screws near the base of the handle just before the cutting iron, These help cut the fibers/grain as you work with the plane, might make life a little easier. Sorry if this is stating something you already know.

    Great result. The plating was obviously the best way to go.
    For your next tool acquisition, I would like to see you get a good set of hollow-ground screwdrivers. Modern hardened taper-ground drivers can destroy the slot of an intransigent screw. I have destroyed my fair share of old screws before I learned this.
    Cheers!

  • @tootall5559
    @tootall5559 4 роки тому +1

    let me help you out a little bit. One, the nickel is on there, but has to be buffed to look like it should. Gently, depending on how thick you got it on there, it can be buffed off. Personally I kinda like it as is, maybe just buff a few spots to hightlght them like the name. Two, here in the US in my world that was called a rabbet plane. What you did on that board is only one use. It can also make a rabbet (hence the name) on the end of the board to facilitate making a box frame. You can also make what they call a dado groove, as you did, but stop it where you want to so the piece of wood going in fits exactly. May take a bit of clean up on the inside end of the groove with a chisel to get it just right. Try polishing just say the handle first, see how you like it, then polish or don't with the rest of it. The handle would usually get kind of polished anyway, as it was used. Never set this thing down on the bench with the blade out. lay it upsidedown or if you're done, withdraw the blade. This helps keep nicks and thing out of the blade edge. back when hand planes were commonly used in cabinet shops and furniture shops, you could be fired for setting a plane down on it's blade if the plane belonged to the shop. If it was your plane, they'd usually just bawl you out for it.

    Excellent. I have one of these, and they're a great tool. It's rare to find all the bits (depth stop etc......there were two originally), and it's a pity you don't seem to have the collection of cutters. Not sure you got that cutter sharp enough (you didn't strop, for instance). Nonetheless, that's a great rescue. I'd feared for a second that you'd slather it in paint.
