RE: Pine Inventory - Bob10 - 04-14-2018 You need one of these on the feed to that pit, good work on that clean up just noticed the water tank with a standing pilot RE: Pine Inventory - bandit571 - 04-14-2018 Yep, I share the basement with a gas water heater, and a gas forced air furnace....and the Boss's laundry Room stuff. Plus, half the basement is storage for stuff....need to clear that out...sometime. RE: Pine Inventory - alanealane - 04-15-2018 Hope the toasted spokeshave was restored ok! It sounds like something that would happen to me so forgive me for chuckling a little bit RE: Pine Inventory - bandit571 - 04-15-2018 Rehabbed spokeshave [attachment=9888] Even rehabbed the sole.. [attachment=9889] iron is sharpened back up ( was needing it, anyway) and the logo.. [attachment=9890] Used a Gun Blue paste, instead of black paint.....had to take the item all the way back to bare metal....gun blue worked nicely. been busy on the Rust Hunt Trail....maybe Tuesday, I can go back to making sawdust?

So how is the house hunting going for you? So hope you get a nice big shop in the future. RE: Pine Inventory - bandit571 - 04-18-2018 Afraid we be stuck here for a while....unless something drastic happens.....Spent some time rehabbing one of the trophies from the shop clean up... [attachment=9937] This is what was found...the Stanley #4 is for scale.....made about 1863 or so. Just an old plough plane. Was trying to use it a few years ago, got ticked off with it not hold a setting..tossed it into a corner....and decided to get a Stanley 45 instead... Well..since this big clean-up..decided to try to fix it up, and see IF I can get it to work, again.. fence was broken, wedges were too small...handle was snapped off.....found a decent chunk of Maple for the handle, had a slab of Ash for the fence replacement...new wedges were made out of walnut....iron was sharpened up, and a groove cut in it to guide onto the skate... [attachment=9938] Replacement fence needed a rebate planned, new bolts ( old, 1860 ones were shot) one of the arms needed fixed ( pedestal was cracked by one of the screws, re-glue) New wedges needed tuned all three of them. One for the cutter needed thinned to match the cutter. Two for the fence's arms needed to match the tapered holes. Whew.. [attachment=9939] A new handle was cut out of the maple block, then ripped for thickness. Shaped to match my hands better, and LOOK like a plane's rear handle. Base of the handle fitted into a mortise. At one time, it was dovetailed in....since worn out. Rather than just relying on glue, I added a screw to better hold the handle in place... [attachment=9940] Once everything had been cleaned up, rebuilt, sharpened, and tuned up....and a coat of Golden Oak and a coat of Amber Shellac was brushed on....then the test drive. Set the fence to 1/4" in from the edge. and ploughed a 1/4" wide groove. There wasn't a depth stop on this plane, when it bottomed out, you were done. [attachment=9941] Shavings tend to spiral out the right side of the plane..making some nice curlies. Not too bad, for an old Plough plane? RE: Pine Inventory - hbmcc - 04-18-2018 Cool save, Bandit! But, but..... now the pine will have grooves. Plate display shelf, perhaps? RE: Pine Inventory - Arlin Eastman - 04-18-2018 You did a swell job on rehabbing the plane! RE: Pine Inventory - TomFromStLouis - 04-19-2018 That is a truly spectacular save on that plough plane.

Maybe needs a Match plane, to make a tongue & groove corner joint? |
