End of day one for the No 40, which wasn't much really, just soaking in vinegar for about 24 hours, and scrubbing with a brush. This will end up being completely repainted. #antiquetools #stanleyplanes #vintagetools #toolrestoration

I have to thank @woodwhisperer for teaching Hybrid Woodworking. The precision offered by using hand planes to finish this dado, rather than trying to creep up on the cut, is so much easier to achieve. I have at least 100 hand planes, but they're all still packed. It takes longer to find the right plane for the job, than it does to get the joint to fit right. #woodworking #lienielsen #stanleyplanes #handplanes #baseballdisplay

Received my birthday presents a few days early. Now to figure out how to fit these in our luggage, to survive the flight home. #stanleyplanes #stanleybedrock #toolcollecting #vintagetools #toolrestoration
