Nice video. I've got a couple transitional planes I want to bring back to life and I picked up a few ideas from you. Lots of good info in this video. Thanks! I just checked your previous videos and lots of videos for me to binge on. I went ahead and subscribed. I have tons of tools that need restoring and with all your instructional videos I now have one less excuse. 🙂
I have my great grandfather’s transitional smoother. Thank you for making this video. Helps me determine what to look for and how to bring it back into usable state.
I picked up a 35 at the weekend for $5 in the same condition as the one you've restored here. Thanks for posting the restoration, I hope mine comes out as nice as yours 👍👊
I’ve always steered away from the transitional planes because of the condition of the wood, but when you find one that’s nice they are a joy to tune up!
Thanks for the in depth lesson, I bought a transitional not long ago and will do a better job on cleaning it up like your lesson. Much appreciated for your time making this video.
Hi Dave, I have a tin of Johnson wax for you. I think it’s really cool to with the wrong patent month. Oh yah, that Howard’s is great stuff, I love it. Pat
That was an amazing find! I'm curious if the Razee style will make it feel more like a metal plane since your hand is lower than a standard wooden plane. How does it feel to use?
Hi Dave. Love your videos. When I saw this I was like hey I have one of those! Went to get it and it looks way different. There is a little wishbone shaped lever behind the blade,and a liberty bell on the lever cap. It is stamped Stanley rule and level no.35. Any ideas what I’ve got?
You have a “Liberty Bell No 135” same size but has the unique method for adjusting the depth of the iron. I believe they were made from 1877-1918. Thank you for watching!
Great video Dave, full of info as always!
Dude! That deep cut about that patent date error just earned you a new subscriber! Awesome video! I really appreciate you for sharing.
I greatly appreciate the subscription and thank you for watching!!!!!

@@red58impala thank you for watching and glad the videos were helpful.

Good luck getting yours tuned up. Certainly makes it a lot more fun knowing the history of the plane.

That’s a heck of a deal, $5. Hope the video helps. Do you know the type?
@@DaveCorinth identical to the one you have. Same condition.
Fine tutorial exceptional
That's quite a tool - I can't say I've ever seen one in action and certainly never seen one refurbished like that. I always learn a lot - thank you.
I haven’t used many transitional planes myself, but I’m giving them a second look. Always wanting to expand my arsenal of planes. Lol
Really enjoy the old transitional Bailey planes I have several
I am starting to find a new appreciation for them myself! Passed many up over the years but not anymore!
You did a great job on this. Gives me some better guidance as I eventually fix up one I bought.

Love these videos Dave! Would love to see more old planes being brought back to life!
I have a bunch to restore and get back up and working.
Love the transitional planes. You found a real gem!
Good job. Very helpful
Thanks for this video. I just got an old 35 and I learned a lot.
Wonderful to hear, good luck getting is to use….
Another great video.

Get it working and enjoy the plane. Thank you
Very enjoyable. I have a nice Razee plane very similar to yours in the video. I will use your instructions when I restore it.
I am very happy with mine, I’m sure you will enjoy yours as well.
The cast iron part of the body is called the top casting. That thing is a beauty.
That is a very appropriate name for that part and I will never forget it! Thanks!
Just a beautiful plane. Thank you much!
Thank you for watching!!
great video! transitional planes are a lot of fun
A most unusual transitional plane. I made a few miniature ones No.35 with a front logo and a heart logo on the cutter. A total length is 2-3/4".
I would love to see the miniatures…..
Thanks Dave
Well now. I guess I need to make my transitional a user !

You can find me on Facebook Dave Corinth and then message me.
I have 3 planes of different styles. I'll have to turn me a new brass adjuster know. Thanks.
That was an amazing find! I'm curious if the Razee style will make it feel more like a metal plane since your hand is lower than a standard wooden plane. How does it feel to use?
It’s a little higher up than a cast iron smoother but it feels about the same. I honestly didn’t give any thought to it while using as it felt fine.

Is there a reason you use this plane on just softer woods, just wondering?
Save the life of the sole. Plus I have a LN, for the harder woods.
