Hand plane refurbishing

Mike Baratta

>I've asked this question before so humor me (I lost all my favorites when my hard drive had to get re-imaged). Can anyone point me to a link for refurbishing planes. I've got two older stanleys that wer my Grandfathers (i think). They have all the working parts and I want to bring em back to life. I've already set up a sharpening rig following the scary sharp method. Any help will be useful.

Thanks,

Mike

>a restored plane should look more like this IMHO. Also, I would use a razor blade or dull chisel to remeve paint splatters
