I did that a couple a weeks ago and now I'm bombarded with email-ads for selling stuff. Really a turn off(not your fault) but you should know what you are promoting.
Purchased a Stanley/Bailey No. 4 from the early 80’s yesterday at an estate sale for $10!!! Spent 60 min cleaning it up and sharpening the blade and it is perfect.
the grumbling from the plane purists about planes post war is strong, I started with a cheap refurbishes set of Stanley handymen planes (3,5,block) and it taught me so much about plane care and sharpening now that I have some more sturdy planes its certainly easier to use but it really taught me the best plane is the one you have and know how to sharpen
Sweet plane, I own a Stanley 127 , cleaned her up like you did and am totally happy with it too. Glad to see your coffee cup made it through its fall, and do I see a Sawdust Women’s hammer used by you……nice. Always look forward to your videos Erik. Hope you made a video on your recent Japanese plane build. Enjoy your day.
For someone without a jointer and thicknesser, wooden jointers are an absolute lifesaver. Dimensioning rough lumber with metal planes would be much more challenging. Couple of notes - 1) if you plan on using it on smaller stock, that big mouth opening will cause you trouble a patch might be a good idea. 2) your stance. since wooden planes lack the front knob, try standing sideways to the workpiece, not behind it. then grab the front of the plane with your left hand, but put your thumb on the side facing you and the rest of the fingers on the side opposite to you, then try to take a shaving. it will make it faster and give you more control.
Yep wood planes have a different ergonomic, look at the old pictures and set yourself the same way, you'll be amazed at the difference, word of warning, once you've mastered wood planes it's hard to go back to iron 😊
@@markhowlett1705 thats right. I have three wooden jointers, three smoothers set at different shaving thickness and a scrub and unless I'm planing something where I need the extra weight of the metal plane or finer setup, I mostly reach for the wooden ones.
Another route home from Down East my wife got wise to. Leaving Gouldsboro down Rt. 1 to Belfast, Rt 3 west, Swing down into Searsmont, take a ride along Appleton Ridge, which is gorgeous, and then Liberty is such a great place to stop and stretch your legs. Of course she decided a quick run to Bangor to catch 95 was more "efficient". That time I stopped for WAAY too long at Lie-Nielsen kinda changed the southern route alternatives too. Enjoy your new plane. Don't wood body planes just feel and sound so nice?
At the first of the video, when you showed going to Liberty Tools, I was like "Wait...that sounds familiar...". I looked around my desk, and sure enough, I have a business card from them where I bought a used plane from them off of eBay a few years ago. :)
Erik, I could see the mouth (viewed from underneath) was larger than we would have on a metal plane. It sounds Sweet 👌 But some.. (yes, I would, that's why I'm asking) would say it's too big. Can you tell me the distance from the blade edge to the front part of the mouth please? If its too large, (yes a mouth close piece could be let into the sole) .. If it is too large then isn't there more likely to be more 'tear-out'🤔 Or The plane could be used for more 'preparation' like a smoother-scrub plane. The surface to then be finished with smoothing plane, scraper or sander. Please, let me know your thoughts. Jamie aka The Worcestershire Cabinet Maker. Cheers ☕ ❤
Woods typically had much larger mouths simply due to how thick the old double irons are/were. Large jack/jointers like this would be mouthed a bit open to handle thicker shavings. Given the iron change, the mouth will be much more open than normal.
I have an old wooden plane I bough at a thrift store years ago, maybe I should refurbish it. The wedge is missing, I'm pretty sure it had one when I bought it so I guess it has fallen off at some time, I'll have to check my boxes of stuff for it. And if it's not to be found I guess I'll try to make a new one.
It is a lovely looking plane and I would be happy to own one. A bit jealous. I wonder what it is like to use a hand plane with arms that are bigger than my legs??
What wizardry hath thou performed with this implement of yore. Aye there’s the rub. This maketh a fine sight to look upon. For this I must express gratitude sir!
Very nice plane. You mentioned that it would cost about $100 if we found a vintage plane etc. basically explaining how even with you buying a new iron it still was pretty cheap. You’re absolutely correct and I’d go even further and say yours is quite inexpensive. Nowadays people are getting crazy with vintage planes. Constantly see old beat up planes for sale and they want $150-200 when nothing is in great shape and if it says Stanley on it…fuhgettabout it!
I'm going to disagree as well. I am confident you can find a good vintage plane that is well under the $100.00 barrier, if you are willing to clean it up. I just purchased a type 17 Stanley #5 for $10.00. I'm in a kind of vintage tool desert out here in Phoenix, but I can get those deals three or four times a year. I have also purchased refurbished Stanley's with new Hock or Veritas sets for between $100.00 and $150.00. So, while I have done what Erik did, I just think it's a fallacy to say you will always invest $100.00 in any vintage plane that will be a user. I agree with you on some of the prices people ask, it does seem overboard.
The plane body shrunk around the iron as it dried out, hence the crack along the top. I doubt the wedge is original to the plane, which is why you had to rework it. It's common for the tote to be loose on these old planes. I think you'd be surprised at how well it will work as a jointer. If nothing else you can use it to flatten large panels. Have fun.
I know some people are jumping out of their socks, "YOU RUINED THE PATINA!" "ALL THE VALUE IS GONE NOW BY REFINISHING IT:" blah bla ba I think you have fulfilled the destiny of a great plane that many people had enjoyed for decades, or at the least one really old dude. Now it can live on as a useful tool, and not a shelf queen. I 👍 your work. Oh yeah, I got the WWoA deal, thanks. Maybe a new channel, Restoring Planes. Think of all the aviators you would trick and all the subs you would get.
Patina in this case of wood is most often dirt. “Lovely Patina” (antique jargon) means your wooded object might need to be cleaned. Now in the case of bronze or copper patina is mostly the result of a chemical reaction
I have a number of these old wood planes, and I want to rebuild them all. The tapered hand forged blades are some what similar to the Japanese style plane irons. A harder 'cutting' metal is hand forged onto a softer and cheaper metal, which is why they are tapered. As for them cracking, I have not seen one yet that is not cracked. To me, that is why you don't build solid wood planes out of 12/4 wood stock because that wood will never reach equilibrium with the center being at a higher moisture content than the outside. Why no one ever drilled about a 1 inch hole through the middle to relieve this imbalance is beyond me. I will be making some of my own design eventually, just because I can, and want to. I did get a steal on a number of those tapered irons. It took me the better part of a day to get all the edges sharp and useable. Now to go make the plane bodies. If you want to see some hand planes that are pretty much orgasmic, check out Stavros Gakos. Eastern European, and his pieces are stunning. All push style planes.
The problem was that your plane was not setup for a blade with a cap iron. The original blade was probably a mild piece of steel with a piece of high carbon steel forge welded to it to form the cutting edge. It would have been quite thick, tapering down in thickness to the striking end, but thinner than the blade/cap iron combo you found on the plane. The original blade would also have allowed you tap adjust the angle. The blade/cap iron refit usually forces you to modify the bed to fit the cap screw, but the mod captures the blade preventing fallout should the wedge loosen. Due to the screw. The original blade with its thickness would have cut very nicely with little to no chatter. The wedge was shaped to eject the shavings, whereas the cap iron acts to break up the chips for ejection. I am personally torn between the old style singe iron and newer double iron style setups. The thicker blade of the former style cuts mighty fine, even if you have to worry about the iron falling out😀
Yay for New Girl references. Also, do you happen to have an email for Liberty Tool? I don't have time to get to Maine, but would love to see if they have some tools they might be willing to ship
Hey Eric do you answer questions for new woodworkers? I'm a beginner and have been studying it but I have questions and need guidance so I can learn it. I love your videos , someone referred to you in a video I
There were so many Stanley copies. I didn't own an actual Stanley plane but I have several copies that are fine. Workable with minimal effort, and more like $40 than $100. A set of modern Buck brothers or irwin chisels are pretty cheap, and you can even make a plane with a 2" chisel.
No need to plane the sides. Just use mineral spirits and fine steel wool to get rid of the grime is enough and you preserve the patina. Otherwise great job. I have restored a very very similar one. 😊
I got a wooden body plane when I bought several other metal body planes. Been debating about getting it usable or just put it on a shelf for decoration. I don't have a jointer yet so.....
Just needs sandpaper. The jointer is very overkill and a bit aggressive. Just get a roll of 120 grit and a nice flat particle board length and you can true the sole up in a few minutes. The same setup can even help you revamp the iron. Troubleshooting the mouth and wedge if they have issue is what is tricky.
I love using wooden planes, Yours will make a good jointer, you can tighten up the mouth with little effort or leave it as is. it'll work great regardless. Normally the makers name will be stamped on the toe. It might be hard to see under the grime but i bet its there and can help date the plane.
Old? OLD? I'm 21 with almost 39 years experience, yet my Doctor told me I was a young man, (or too young for certain vaccines at least) and... AND, I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up. I know wood may well be involved but adulting is off the cards Nice plane by the way, love old tools.
I love my wooden planes. I can't justify the cost of a high end plane like a LN or Veritas, and the metal body budget options are not great to be generous.
Looks like you have not quite finished with that plane. IT could do with re-mouthing. Appart from that very nice and looks like something that was made today.
The mouth absolutely could stand some adjustments. But I have other planes that I can use for more exacting work. This will be a thing to break out and enjoy from time to time.
Man, I don't know if that was a good trip to show me or not... Kinda mean in a small way 🤣There are a few planes I'm drooling over right now. And no way I get there ..LOL!!!
There is just something about that long sniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick sound of a well-fettled big plane that is sex to my ears. Kudos for the save, and don'cha just love Hock blades?

At the age of 27, I recently opened an ROTH IRA and made the full commitment possible for 2024. How long it took me to straighten out my life makes me feel terrible. How to invest the money to grow for retirement is the issue here
You're 27 years old. It is alright. The compound interest period has begun. To build a strong foundation and reduce risk while maximizing gain, I think all investors should begin with ETFs. From there, they should diversify across a range of asset classes and continue to invest consistently and systematically
You do not need to locate the next NVDA to be successful in investing. Simply choose top tier ETFs and work with a financial counselor, as I did. I turned $90,000 into $53,000 in annual dividends, which is a huge accomplishment for me today.
Impressive! I admit I'm scared about retirement as I turn 60 on my next birthday. I need to ensure I have enough money to survive on. How can I consult your advisor? My retirement account isn't performing well
Good stuff. And, I'm jealous. I have been searching for a razee try plane. Secrets o' Woodies: if advancing the iron by striking it is difficult, for whatever reason, Physics says strike the toe of the plane. I do this often because it is a finer adjustment than I can make over striking the iron. Also, I find it easiest to remove the iron by holding the iron and wedge in one hand and using the other to strike the heel of the plane on the top of my bench.

It sure did! Thank goodness.
Very cool, I always had my suspicions about wooden planes but you convinced me they are worth considering
