This restoration is on a Type 1 Stanley No. 113 compass plane patented in 1879. You can view the original patent documents here:patents.google...
The Type 1 planes of the No. 113 were made from 1877-1880 and allowed users to plane curved wooden surfaces.
This specific plane was sent to me by a viewer.
I wanted to restore this plane as close to original as possible so I opted to japan the main body and nickel-plate the knobs. Unfortunately, you must drill out a specific pin located under the sole adjustment knob in order to fully remove it from the body of the plane. Other than that one pin, everything else was de-rusted and cleaned for reassembly.
With the blade sharpened, it preformed very well and was a lot of fun to use.
I really miss restoring hand planes as that is what got me so hooked on doing restorations in the first place.

I thought I should slow it down for this hand plane restoration. I haven't done one in so long and I miss it! Hand planes are the reason I got hooked on restorations in the first place. Enjoy!

@tenchuu007 2 года назад

I was wondering when you'd need a palate refresher after those huge intricate ones!

@thraximundar2974 2 года назад

Your work brings me great joy, thank you for sharing your passion with us.

I like fire!

@caretakersworkbench3673 2 года назад

Has a strong Art Deco vibe to it, like Gadsbys Carpenter finally had enough of his extravaganza and put the Plane to rest - happy you ressurected this one - such a enjoyable video - Thanks Dude!

@JonManProductions 2 года назад

I see you have picked up ToT's "Subscribe" tactics and I love it. XD

@mannye 2 года назад

I would love to see a retrospective of the tools you've restored! You know, like a "Where are they now?" kind of thing. I believe that a display and a little back story of all these functional works of art would be of interest to a lot of viewers.

@TheSimsterC 2 года назад

Agreed! would love to know if any have been sold on, see regular use etc.

@eggycat 2 года назад

Yeah this.

Several months ago I asked HTR to restore my life. And honestly with minimal effort on his part I'm glad to report that he came, through! I have a job I like, I found new hobbies, and my kids are even behaving better. Thanks Hand Tool Rescue!

@GrantJohnston-dr9rt Год назад

Well done!Just watching the intro cheers me up!! Keep up the good work!

@phooesnax 2 года назад

Just bought a 113 last week. Missing the handle. Thank You for posting.

@jamiegibson1010 8 месяцев назад

It is great to see the old hand tools being made new again. I would guess that most carpenters or cabinet makers wouldn't know what this tool is. Superb.

@CatofManyFaces 2 года назад

This and the fractal vise are so interesting. Tools lost to history and still useful today. :)

Compass planes are still around in boatbuilding!

@ctlaurin 2 года назад

Yes! Come to the boatbuilding corner of youtube

@jeffr0 2 года назад

as soon as i saw the finish on the body and knob i thought, " Eric loves Japanning". great job, once again

@Halinspark 2 года назад

It's always fun to see the creative ways they did things back then. We don't see as much of those ideas anymore now that the problems we're engineering for are different.

@venger910 2 года назад

That seems like a ridiculously logical tool that I've never seen or known about.

@JH-lo9ut 13 дней назад

Hey it's the one and only Stanley no. 113! These are great for boat building and other types of carpentry that requires complex shapes. The Stanley 113 is a coveted tool and they go for around $100- $200 on ebay, even in bad condition. I've seen good ones on sale for $500. Curved planes used to be made out of wood and you needed one for every thinkable radius, both convex and concave. Even a small difference in the radius and the plane won't cut properly, so the adjustible ones are super useful. There is an electric hand plane that does the same thing, made by Italian manufacturer Virutex. It is a poorly engineered machine with terrible ergonomics, but as far as I know, it is the only modern electric plane on the market that has a adjustible, curved base. The base plates on the Virutex plane are not syncronized as on the stanley, but you have to bend the base to the right curve and lock it in place with a screw in each corner. It also doesn't use the standard 82 mm hardened steel blades as 90% of electric hand planes do, but proprietary 80 mm ones. (But you can grind off 2 mm from a standard blade and they'll fit)

Blasting cabinet scenes are the best. Love to see it!

@robertmanley7556 2 года назад

I love old tools.....if only they could show you all the things they have made/fixed ! I don't think I have ever seen a hand plane like this . I think this most versatile plane so useful.....and you did a GREAT job restoring this !!👍👍

@durfkludge 2 года назад

Watching the parts basket come up out of the evapo-rust barrel is so satisfying. That stuff is the bee's knees. Sometimes I pick up rusty bits of hardware off the street and de-rust it just to feel alive.

@jackalovski1 2 года назад

Should have japaneed the knobs then sanded them to bring out the detail. Also, I love how there's the fractal vise in the background at the end to emphasise how much they "dont make them like the used to"

@normmcrae1140 2 года назад

I was thinking the EXACT same thing - the knobs would look AMAZING!

@hugodesrosiers-plaisance3156 Год назад

Speaking as a woodworker who knows what a good compass plane is worth, the intial hammer-banging steps hurt me deeply, but then the cleaning and getting-it-back-together steps were heavenly. Also, I am happy to find out I am not the only person whose standard for sharpness is to be able to shave my forearm, instead of the dumb old paper cutting.

@pamdemonia 2 года назад

That big front knob, all engraved and etc. is gorgeous.

@xxxdiresaintxxx 2 года назад

That's a neat plane I never realized one like that existed but now that I've seen it it makes total sense.

@ckmoore101 2 года назад

Yes, its sad how so many people today, think anything old, is outdated, and of "inferior" design to all new stuff. There is an air of intellectual arrogance very rampant in todays society, when it comes to machinery of the past.

@danawrigleywalkingstickand5677 2 года назад

My Dad has one just like that in an old tool chest in his cellar. I remember playing with it when I was a kid. Beautiful tool and great restoration.

@machobunny1 2 года назад

It would have never occurred to me that such a thing would work. Always amazed by some of the old tools you come up with. Well Done.

@joereedmusic9853 2 года назад

In my 73 years this is the first one of this type I've ever seen. Nice restoration.

@ScanianDude 2 года назад

I always do it after the intor, too captivating intro to do it before ;)

@terrynicholls2975 2 года назад

Very nicely done. Never seen one of these before. I have a radius plane that my father, a patternmaker, made as an apprentice about eighty years ago, but it is a single handle with a set of interchangeable fixed-radius cutting beds and matching blades. I love these tools that embody so much of the craftsmanship of old that is slowly disappearing from the world. Thanks for giving them the respect that they deserve.

@Dr_V 2 года назад

Wow, a hand made 80 years old radius planer set, what a nice heirloom. Simple or not that's a far more precise tool than the adjustable planer restored by HTR and also quite valuable, you should take good care of it.

@terrynicholls2975 2 года назад

@@Dr_V I was able to bring to Canada quite a few of my father’s specialty tools-chisels, gouges, measuring tools-after my last visit a few years ago. They had been left in a sorry state after he retired and stopped using them, and I wanted to restore and use them myself rather than let them sit and rot. My father passed away a week before this Christmas at the age of 97, and I am so glad I have something so filled with the spirit of his working life to keep me connected to him now that he has gone. I have no relatives who would appreciate them either for their inherent worth, or for their sentimental value, so when I pass I intend to leave them to a collector or a museum if I can.

@idontthinkso666 2 года назад

These planes are still very much in use today. When you need to flatten a concave or convex surface, no other tool does it better. Somethings just can't be improved!

@aussiebloke609 2 года назад

That blasting cabinet is a source of so much fun. :-D

@rons3736 2 года назад

That's pretty smooth... The engineering and ornate tools of that era never cease to amaze me. I love the videos! Keep up the fantastic work!

Complex problems solved with ingeniously simple mechanical solutions. And on top of that, a sprinkling of 'let's beautify the thing a bit, we're not savages..'

@AnthonyCurreri 2 года назад

I couldn't imagine what that type of plane was used for. Fascinating.

Здравствуйте! Очень интересный рубанок! Как всегда ваша работа понравилась!

@WadeWeigle 2 года назад

That is a sweet planer. No doubt a big help to early air plane manufactures and old ship wrights that had to make mock-ups of vessels. Really handy tool.

@buellb0y 2 года назад

Just a pet peeve of mine. (Cabinetmaker with 35 years in the field) On the return stroke, LIFT the plane iron of the work. It’ll extend the life of the edge between sharpenings by quite a bit. Also, never use tool steel on your work AFTER sandpaper. The grit impregnated in the pores of the wood will dull your edge.

@MarkMeadows90 2 года назад

I enjoy your personal sense of humor in each video sir. Good job!

I recently became aware of this tool from a Matt Cremona video. It was awesome to see one restored and learn how the mechanism functions! Great video, and really conveniently timed! Thank you.

@JamesDeese 2 года назад

I am glad you demonstrated the bend. It makes a lot of sense in an age of hand tools that one would be made to more easily plane an arch.

Your restoration of this compass plane brought back many memories from my boat building apprenticeship- and wishing I had as nicely redone a plane as that one!! Finishing out the interior planking with one that wouldn't hold adjustment really taught patience! 🤣 Great job!
