I bought all of my Stanley planes in the early 70s and did everything you did from 15:45 on when they were new out of the box.After more than 50 years I still have all and they still work fine. Even new tools need attention before using them

Nice job. Just did one myself. As a warning to others I left the plane three days in white vinegar to eat the rust but it also ate a lot of the plane as well, took a whole day of sanding to get the sole back to the point where there is a good 80% bright metal and the remaining pits don’t affect function. It also ate some of the screw threads in the sole for the tote and front knob so I’ll have to remedy that too.

Nice work...but why the fast fwd...would have liked to hear your thoughts as you were restoring that old beauty.

Semana passada encontrei no mezanino da minha marcenaria minha Stanley número 5 que comprei em 2003 em São Paulo, vou restaurar ela em breve. Vou usar suas dicas! Valeu.

I would've liked to see the finished product. 🤔 Like a few before/after pics...

Un cepillo de los más bellos que he visto en mi vida y muy original como debe de ser un Stanley bailey lo mejor en herramientas de carpintería felicidades al dueño de esta maravilla

Good job so nice to see someone doing a proper job of it, I really enjoyed watching this because you do It the right way and not by half's well done great job.,

Nice restore. Had to turn the volume off though. Very irritating sound when fast forwarding.

Good job, congratulations. God bless you.

Great video, I’ve just bought a Record 5 that’s going to need at least as much work doing to it. Lots of great tips here thank you.

Great job but I have one question. That Japanning looked to be just fine. Why remove good Japanning for thin spray paint?

What type of coating did you use to spray. The jappaning looked good prior.

Good Job! Suggest using brass brush to diminish scratches instaed of wire. Also, use loctite NOT permanent to secure & protect screw threads. What was the white paste you applied. No sound cause of speedup! Thanks for sharing. Jim

really nice job.

Why, oh why would you strip a perfectly good paint finish?

WHAT kind of paint remover is that?

Good restoration 🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍👍

Great vid. I’m in the process of restoring a old Bailey number 4. After rubbing down the handles I have found out that you can’t put normal varnish on them. What was the varnish you used?

Nice restoration, but had to turn off the sound as the Micky mouse impression gets a bit much

How did you get the chasis/base so clean after the paint stripper. That's the problem I'm having.

I didn't know Alvin and the chipmunks were into woodworking. Jk, great video.

Bellissimo restauro! La pialla ultimata è fantastica 😍 I pattini per la morsa sono stampati in 3D? Per il video, l’unico consiglio che posso darti è che forse è un po’ lunghetto. Ah, e per riprendere mentre usi lo spray, puoi provare ad avvolgere la videocamera con la pellicola da cucina 😉

Nice work, I just refinished a 5 1/4 Stanley Bailey yesterday. Same exact process. The week before that No 4 too. I did so much sanding, and when I saw you put the stripper on, I really slapped myself in the head. I literally had it on my work bench in front of me and never thought to use it. So anyhow, What kind of diamond stone is that you are using? Could you link it maybe?

How to clean up, to paint, etc but how it is to let people how you made the adjustments are very much important.Where is that part?

The speed makes all of your neighbors sound like they are driving F1 cars.

I have a Stanley 5-1/2. The only difference is that mine has a corrugated foot.

What is the solution that you left them in?

Me gusta👍

It looked like you did a good job except that you could have redone the Jappaning instead of using paint.

Was that Simon behind you, Alvin?

Mouse talking :D

Do not flatten the sole on a ceramic tile. These tiles are notoriously unflat. Those stripes on the sandpaper indicate high spots. You risk ending up with a "wavy" sole. Instead flatten it on a granite plate or on the top of a table saw.

Wow I gonna get that formula look simple n clean using a wire wheel is annoyingly dusty and annoying I just done a number 7 & 8

Add more stripper and allow it to do its job. A little patience can spare you a lot of work.

And Donald duck was narrating this lol

Good vid spoiled by speeding up film whats the point of sound never mind A

Mine is much prettier than that. Looks better than brand new !

Great job but the background noise is annoying.

Hate speed up, can’t sleep with it

The Chipmunks noise was very irritating

Had to turn the sound down. The chipmunk talking was irritating.

Fake restoration. I repair/restore planes for a living, and this was all wrong.
