I love how you sharpened your paint scraper. Actually laughed out loud

"Around the turn of the century". So much work to restore a tool of less than 20 years of age :-)

Damn, another one I missed!! Really good video ... I love the fact that you openly experiment with processes to find new and better ways to repair and strengthen. But, more importantly, you gracefully accept criticism and advice to refine your methods. It shows just how dedicated you are to tools, their history and restoration and not your ego. You really are the best!! Cheers ...

Laughed out loud in my office at "Morning Wood"...excellent!

Quietly watching away......."oh he's sharpening a chisel.....oh my, look how sharp it is he must be using it to remake the woode..........wait........no.......oh god NO.....NOOOOO..... ". Haha, brilliant lol.

You have inspired me. I went to a garage sale and bought an old Polish made hand drill to restore.THanks heaps.

Nothing like a sole made of morning wood. Can't beat it!

Is it just me, or is that plane about the most awesome woodworking tool? It's gorgeous. Simply beautiful.

Good video. The best: no jingle , no bagpipes.

I love seeing tools from the late 1800s.

My father-in-law had some old hand tools that need some restoration. Your videos will help me in getting them back to decent condition. Thanks!!!

Nice restoration however i have a tip! I am a Luthier in training and have to deal with stabilizing wood with cracks a lot, usually in restoration of older guitars and viola and by far the best method to fill the cracks and strengthen the wood that i have been taught is to use a thin "wicking" CA glue, it seeps deep into the cracks and dries clear, you can also force dust from the wood you are working on into the crack along with the CA, sometimes you wouldn't even know there was a crack!

Hi! Nice video and really nice piece! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

These old tools have got character nice job well done.

Scraping the rust wid a sharp wood chisel !!!! Dude that’s priceless !!! Peace out

great tip about the saw dust for vibtation

Love seeing old tools made young again. Thanks!

You seem remarkably young to have the knowledge and skill that you do. Perhaps my generation isnt doomed after all!

If you use wood glue in cracks and then sand while wet it fills with the pieces exact color match sawdust. Works wonders, Great quality videos, keep up the good work!!

Nice job. Nothing performs quite like a nicely restored transitional plane. I restored an old No31 Stanley Jointer and use it quite often

I swear you and AvE take up 99.99% of my time when I’m youtube. Good videos and no bullshit I love it

I just bought one of these at a garage sale, a 15" Fulton I believe. I did a partial restore on it, but I think I'm gonna go a little further after seeing what you did. Nice work!

Yeah!!! ya saved the original wood! And a Rescued tool saves another!!

Watching these videos and how the tools in them are treated, I can't decide if being brought into this shop is the best thing or the worst thing that could happen to a tool. Remember kids, with enough determination, any tool can be a hammer.

I accidentally fount this channel yesterday thank you so much you will be a star soon bless you!!!!!!all the best from country GEORGIA !

Awesome. Love the hand plane restores.

That's probably the coolest circular saw I've ever seen! @ 7:08

That water looks clean

Great rescue as always. I did flinch when you sharpened up your chisel and then used it to scrape paint. But hey, it's your tool. Thanks for posting.

Good use of morning wood.

Nice job, I enjoy people being creative at getting something old and wasted to work again. Some planes are valuable exactly because most are in the condition this was in-wasted. As an old guy with all ten fingers intact, your planer hygiene made me a little queasy lol... The Gorilla glue, as you found, isn't much use for filling cracks. If you have time, the best approach is to oil the wood weekly for a few months, most of the cracks will shrink a lot if not close up completely. When I have something to fix up that is in my "someday" pile, I try and hit it with some oil frequently. Then use the CA and sawdust trick Conor mentioned.

This time I'm not rising to the bait. An interesting restoration, and nice to see the gas powered circular saw in use.

Using the gas powered circular saw! Nice!

So satisfying to watch. Thank you for making these awesome videos that help me find zen.

A wood plane made of wood! I like it.

You always do a great job

The biggest problem with your videos are...I could watch them all day long. Please keep them coming.

a tip for fixing cracks in wood. mix glue with sawdust. makes the repairs look a lot better! :)

Such a great channel, learning quite a few tips. And most importantly I love the fact that you're not making it about yourself and spewing dribble like so many others. Not many can make a video so informative with so few words.

came out awesome great Job

That wax and paint trick was something else man, thanks for showing it. And great videos, I really enjoy your content.

Beautiful

I love the way you work and your sense of humor ! greetings from France

Nice resto!

I picked up one of these planes with a bunch of old tools.....I'm thinking I may have to restore it as well, thanks for another great video!

Nice video. I like the trick with the saw dust. Well done again.

Nice job. I restored an identical one a few years ago. Identical except that all the parts were there and it didn't have those stupid blobs of braze on it. My solution for the mouth of it was a maple inlay, and I didn't polish and sand/scrape off all the original paint and finish you did. But it works great. Though I still prefer my old steel Stanleys for use. Once those old things are properly tuned and set up, lapped on glass by hand with carbide sand.. Micro flat and a joy to use.

This is another entertaining tool shop video. thanks thumbs up.

Another great restoration...thanks sir for sharing this with us...

Such a piece of art. Thanks for sharing

I truly enjoy your videos and I look forward to new ones every time they come out you have really taught me a lot and fixing old stuff just a lot of patience thank you

Great job as usual, thanks for the viewing.

Another great video thanks. That trick with the wax is a great tip. I can't wait to try it out.

Great video, I have a Stanley transitional to restore, so thanks for a preview. Keep up the great work. each tool tells a story.

Awesome rescue man! So many cool tricks. I really appreciate you helped ng me out with this one. I am glad to see your channep doing so well. That scene with sharpening the chisel just to use it as a scraper KILLED me. Keep up the good work.

I know nothing about this, but I still enjoy your videos. Thanks for the great content!

Using a plane to restore a plane. - A whole new level of planeception. :D

You are a very talented artist. Your videos just amaze me.

Thank you for this. I was just given an old transitional plane which I believe is a Sargent VBM No. 3416. I've been at a loss as to where to start cleaning it up. This is a huge help.

RARE AND VERY NICE.FROM BRAZIL MY FRIEND.

I like how you made the new sole plate:)

I like the idea of making a new bottom for the plane. Not something I would have thought of.

Nice job.👍🏻

Using Gorilla as a crack/hole filler is another good technique from HTR. Thanks

It's beautiful

Great video

man i cant get enough of these videos. can you make more?

Sharpening the chisel only to use it to scrape paint, priceless.

My favorite kind of wood!

General rule when it comes to Aerosols: If it's labeled as "Combustible" or "Explosive" on the front, it's usually good stuff. :)

I know I'm like 2 years late on this one, but I kind of got worried when you showed the valve lapping compound until I realized what you were doing lol. Nice restoration

Amazing! Seus vídeos são fantásticos. Eu gosto muito de consertar coisas. tambem recuperar coi coisas antigas.pa nsYour videos are great. I really like fixing things. also recover old things. Thanks for sharing.

I’ve just done one exactly the same. So glad mine was nicer to start.

eu acho muito lindo recuperar peças e ferramentas antigas ,resgata um pouco do nosso passado um pouco esquecido vale a pena pra quem gosta muito e ferramentas assim como eu. abrassos

Great to see

excellent job! I find your videos very entertaining to watch. Thank You!

Great videos. Hope to see more soon.

Que relíquia essa plaina de transição. Parabéns belas restauração.

Your videos are always so interesting to watch. Excellent job!

Beautiful! Thanks for a great video.

Nicely done ... clever solutions and very useful tool now. Congrats ...

Nice job. One of your best efforts.

You are really an inspiration! I have picked up some great tips from you and your viewers. Keep these videos coming! Like one of your viewers said these are better than anything Hollywood could produce!~Dolly

I just picked up the same plane in an antique shop while visiting friends in New Hampshire this week. I wasn't sure who the mfr was as the blade, chip breaker and lever cap are missing, but it does have the frog. I know what's the point. It was $5 and it's fun honing my restoration skills. I'll be scouring the net for the missing parts/donor plane. Excellent video and subbed to your channel.

Wonderful work !!!

Awesome. I loved the ending before and after shot. So glad I subscribed to you, sir!

Great Job as always

Excellent! I like the sawdust trick (since I'm not normally in a woodshop, I've used rags and towels on a surface for this, but never sawdust). The lapping of the two metal parts towards the end, I think you may have better results if you lap the crowned surfaces on a piece of glass first, as a reference flat surface, and then as a precursor to the lapping compound, if it was me, I might also consider putting a sandpaper surface on the lapped crown piece and sanding down the lower mating half before using the pipe-lapping compound, so it takes less than 1/4 million strokes. ;)

2:45 Wow, that chisel is sharp. My great-uncle did the same thing once with an axe blade. No joke. I was just a kid then and it absolutely blew my mind, I don't know how he sharpened it to get it like that.

I think you would love Marmite spread on your tools, or if you prefer a bit more runny stuff, try Worcester sauce :) I like your sarcastic way of repairing tools... or like some say... it's all in the wrist

amazing as always!! i been using that plane i won to do beams with lol

2:30 The chisel sharpening LOL!

First time I have ever subscribed after one video. Thanks!

Nice job on the restoration. I haven't come across many of these planes that are worth the effort to restore. The lever caps, in particular on the Sargent's, seem to be too flimsy, and made it difficult to achieve precision adjustments. I tried everything I could think of to get them to work, but generally with little luck. Around a year or so ago I came across a transitional from a maker called Marten Doscher, and it had a real lever cap, they style you might see on an infill plane, and it was the first transitional I've ever restored that worked the way I feel a plane should. If you come across one of these I would highly recommend checking it out.

Sharpens crusty chisel, ruins blade on forged metal. That was hilarious - great editing. Missed about 2 minutes of the video laughing. Well done, sir. Well done.

Great video! I want to make my own plane sometime soon, so this is very useful. Thank you!

wow man! just incredible! love these videos, so much to learn!

Very good

Outstanding craftsmanship mate. You never fail to educate, entertain and amuse me... “Morning Wood” 😂😂😂😂 It’s been many years since that’s happened. What more can I say? Love your work and your tool line. I’m gonna have to get myself one of those screwdrivers you manufacture. Don’t need one, but just love ‘em. Apart from the Spanner and screwdriver, any more tools in the pipeline? 👍🇦🇺

I laughed at the giant patch of missing arm hair from all the blade tests
