mds2 Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Brass brush, wd-40 and lot's of time! Turned out great! I use a wire wheel on my grinder to remove most of the gunk, takes a lot of work out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObtainiumMaker Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 That's quite a find and the sentimental value alone would be enough for me to tackle restoring the #5 and #6. Agree with everyone who's commented on the #110 - not worth the effort if you're looking to make these into users. Here's a great walk through guide to plane restoration with a ton of detailed photos. I'll be doing this with a #5 pretty soon that'll end up as a gift. http://www.majorpanic.com/handplane_restor1.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
