rmartuszewski Posted February 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Picked up a metal thing from local restaurant supply store. Only cost $17, and great for rust removel bath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Good score. The older No. 5 is is worth the $30. Looks you got a No. 102 The other block plane that looks similar to the 220 is probably a copy. Hard to say with out better pics. Going for the blue paint again? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Cancelleri Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Excellent! I haven't used Metal Rescue, interested to see how it works. I've restored a few hand planes, if the Japanning is in good shape, a rust removal bath is the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it is water based. The number 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmartuszewski Posted February 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 Painnted the frog that was in good shape after cleaning it, other frog in metal rescue with soles. Also cleaned, and polished every screw. Now will sit in oil till they get wiped down and put back on planes. So no rust issues down the road.
