    That plane turned out beautifully, and works great. I think it was a wise decision to leave the black paint on the main plane body. Blending the bluing with the old paint is a nice creative touch. I have my grandfather's Stanley bevel angle, and it is rosewood. I bet the knob on your plane is too. I remember when as kids we were first introduced to plane use in junior high wood shop.

    I love to refurbish quality Stanley block planes. I did one for my grandson (that he gave me as a present), gifted it back refurbished and he uses it all the time. The one I did for myself is kept on my tool wall behind my workbench. I hold it on the tiny shelf on my wall with a rare earth magnet glued below the surface of the shelf. I also have my grandfather's 5-1/2, and two others (a #5 and a #7 I purchased at sales in line for refurbishing.
    I have to admit something. The first #5 that I purchased several years ago at a flea market was ruined by me by using a power belt sander to flatten it. I intended to make a shooting plane out of it but removed so much metal that I got it so out of square that it was totaled. Made me sick, but that was my first one and a learning tool. That won't happen again.
    And the bluing would not be my first choice for a gift, but functionally it absolutely is fine! Earlier Stanleys did use a lot of rosewood on their tools. Rosewood and other exotic species are very beautiful, but also quite toxic. Thanks.

    nice job Magdad. those old block planes usually end up as terrible blocks of rust - yours looks great now. bluing the exposed metal was a great idea - saved time and kept some of the original finish. I've got a few planes like that taking up real-estate on my workbench that need to be 'addressed'. take care 👍

Which could be why it worked? I made the the knob I made a lot wider. Which would cut down on it splitting out.

    Another fine job. The blueing worked more like blacking on that material! I know it looks as good as new now, but if you would have highlighted the raised letters with silver, I think it would pop a little better. I don't remember if you have used the paint pens before, but they are very easy to use on raised letters. If you have not tried using a paint pen, give it a shot on a future project. I think you will like it. 😊😊😊

      I don't know if what's on that plane is really Japanning. The Japan finish was some kind of a tar they baked on. Bitumen? That plane looks like it was just painted. They gave up on Japanning a long time ago. No one's actually sure precisely how Japanning was done today. It was tar and lamp black or coal dust or something.

    When I first saw the base, I thought that black paint was Japanning. That bottom, especially where the pitting was, cleaned up very nicely. The bluing did a good job too and that wooden knob looks great. Was that steel wool you were using on the polishing of the knob or was it just a colored rag? I was waiting for you to tell us that you were using 0000 steel wool. Anyway, the block plane looks incredible after cleanup. Great job.
    I checked out the Stanley No. 118 plane video too. I liked how you decided to err with caution and not to tear the whole plane down because some of it was peened in place. Sometime, even if I can get it apart, I don't because I am unsure of myself on if I can do a good job of it or will end up breaking it. The plane came out really nice.

    What looks like black paint, ain't. It's a finish widely used for cast iron items like your plane called "japanning." Using gun bluing to cover bare spots is a very good idea. I've never fooled with it, but articles like the essay on Wikipedia tells me it's not easy or fun.
    your plane is obviously working the way it was intended to, and it looks good, too. Good job!

    The good old Stanley 220. They got churned out by the millions. But it is a good tool. I use a 12-220 myself. I have nicer block planes but I like that one 12-220. If I drop and break it no great loss either. I got it for a buck. You need to work on your sharpening method some. At least add a strop. Sharpening is raising a burr and removing it.

      I prefer my low angle 118.

      @@357magdad with a bevel up plane you can change the angle. I never work with wood that needs a low angle. I save that for the other guys.

    You should always leave the plane intact when you refurbish the soul

    IDK it doesn't even have wings, I don't think it's restored yet

    Nice job. However in my opinion you should of removed all the pain from the “handle” and either repainted or blued the whole piece.

      Thanks for watching Bob! I wanted to experiment with the bluing.

    Please don't mix finishes on quality tools like this Stanley plane. If it was painted then paint it! Or, save your experiments for some of the cheap tools you "restore". You had an opportunity to bring a classic tool back to a useful state. Although you didn't completely botch it you ended up with a Frankenplane. I see your skiills improving but your decisions still need honing. Keep it up!

    Great video, buddy! I have a couple of old Stanley number five Jack plane as well as a couple of other planes I need to pull out and start restoring! Only one of them needs new wood!
    Have a great blessed week, man! 😁👊🏻🤘🏻👍🏻🙏
