Love the idea of that not for profit. I went on a 6 month stress leave after suffering through 4 years of depression. I spent the vast majority of my time off in my garage mucking about with wood. I even started restoring a piece of junk hand plane, I think. I came to channels like this for community and inspiration. I found a lot of healing in making things, experimenting, gaining new skills, and just having something to putter away at (never underestimate the power of puttering). Thanks Rex for supporting a cause like this, and for providing great content to help people through tough times.

It's easy for people to say that Will is a 'Troll' but maybe he's a beginner, whose skill fell short of the task. We *all* started somewhere and Rex's kindness, knowledge and skill demonstrates that constructive criticism is better then abuse. Erring on the side of belief in people (whilst not being naïve) has helped me enormously during my life - and proven that there's far more Good in the World then Bad.

Rex…Hats off to you for 30 minutes continuous flattening! I m restoring a really nice British plane at the moment. A Record #4 1/2 Doing the flattening in bursts of 100 strokes up and down the paper. Longest continuous I’ve got up go is 300 a few times and I found that really tiring at my age (67). I’m at a total now of 10,200 strokes and I still haven’t quite got rid of a tiny dip centred on the middle of the mouth. Slowly slowly improving. Keep on thinking enough is enough but can’t quite let myself try it out on wood again when there’s still the possibility that I can get it perfect. I must get round to remembering that perfection is the arch enemy of the good!

@robertnagai5149 16 дней назад

Hi! Curious what grit sand paper you used. You can start with something more aggressive like 60 grit. Then move up to finer grits. (I’m guessing you started off with something too fine like 120 or higher ). Hope this helps.

@RaySmall-cr3sq 16 дней назад

Hi Robert. I started and have continued with 60 grit. I tried flipping the glass and used the 100 I’d stuck there thinking it would be fresher but it did less than the 60 despite it’s heavy usage

@fisharmor 24 дня назад

I'm dead certain I've set more steel rivets than anyone here and most of them involved a modified tack hammer. A tiny cross pein would have worked here too - you can get it bitten down on either side so it stays put and frees up that hand to hold the punch to set it properly.

@1pcfred 23 дня назад

A ball peen hammer will drive a nail. I haven't found anything a bell peen can't hammer. They're a popular mid range goto for me when it comes to bashing stuff around some. I even peen with them sometimes too. Peening is a very relaxing activity. I usually use a nail as a rivet.

@stevekelley1179 23 дня назад

@@1pcfred A claw hammer is for nails and ball peen is for fine metal work. When you use a ball peen hammer to hammer nails you leave a small indentation on the face of the hammer and when you use that hammer you for fine metal work it leaves marks on your metal. If you need a small hammer use a tack hammer or a joiners hammer.

The blade holds an edge better than any Stanley that I have owned and it is so comfortable that I can plane for hours without getting tired or having a hand cramp.

Rex, when lapping a severely rusted plane (or re-surfacing the flat of a plane iron), try starting with 36G Garnet. As the grit eventually wears, it breaks down to a surprisingly fine cutting attack, like 120G, or even finer. This saves an astonishing amount of time both in the rough grinding *and* the smooth finishing. Also, it may not be easier, but holding the plane backward, thumbs on the cap iron, while lapping the sole makes it less likely that you'll 'round' the bottom from edge to edge, like you might tend to do while bearing the hell down on the handles...

Thanks for the lesson on the small things that need work with a plane.

Nice video Rex, thank you for it! I have reworked brand new Stanley Bailey No 4.5 few days ago. TBH, i was kinda amazed how this one got through final inspection. Body was twisted, bowed and crooked. But the main problem was those two holes at back of the frog being 3 mm off center. Frog itself was machined out of square too. I have milled entire body and frog, milled those two holes in the right spot (i have used oversized screws), smoothed everything, reassembled, properly adjusted and now i have finaly plane able to produce paper thin shavings. Well, i was not expecting much for the price, but this was reall bummer.

It is cool to see you reattach the lateral adjustment lever. I just did that myself for the first time on a franken-#5. Easier to flatten a frog before that step though. 😅
