chefmagnus@grics.net Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 I got these out today. I don't know anything about planes. I found these in a box. i know that they look like they haven't been used in a while.

chefmagnus@grics.net Posted November 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 Thanks bro, Now I can figure out how much the sharpening guy is going to charge me for fixing them up. I might learn how to do it myself...Blockare 20, smoothers are 25, and jacks are 35 each. I think that I might get a sharpening machine and some steel wool...

chefmagnus@grics.net Posted November 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 I call it TLC2X. Does Harbor Freight sell those 3M type pads that are so good on rust? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefmagnus@grics.net Posted November 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 He does more than sharpening but he adds to the bill for extra services. If it needs fixed if you let him at it you will get it back in near as new condition as he can make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilgaron Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 Get some evaporust to soak them, you won't want to use steel wool to get the rust off of all of those. Make sure you take off the wood parts before the soak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Bailey Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 I'll second the evaporust, very little steel woolage afterward. I restored a 100 year old smoother covered in rust by soaking in evaporust, and that made the tuning and sharpening much easier afterward. it's so easy that if your sharpening guy charges extra for such things you should at least clean the rust off before sending to him.
