STANLEY No.78 CHISEL PLANE CONVERSION

Description

THIS IS A STANLEY No.78 THAT I CONVERTED INTO A CHISEL PLANE
THE BODY AND LEVER CAP WERE STRIPPED THEN MANY COATS OF FINISH ARE APPLIED TO COME UP WITH A VERY THICK AND DURABLE FINISH WHICH IS THEN BAKED ON AND CURED.THIS PROCESS TAKES 7 TO 10 DAYS. THIS IS A EXCELLENT FINISH NOT A OVER NIGHT SPRAY PAINT JOB.
I REMOVED THE RAISE SECTION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FACE THEN LAPPED IT FLAT.
BOTH SIDES WERE LAPPED
THE SOLE WAS LAPPED FLAT. ITS 5-1/2" LONG , 1-1/2" WIDE
THE CUTTER WAS CLEANED , LAPPED AND SHARPENED. 1-1/2" WIDE
THE LEVER CAP IS LAPPED AT ITS CONTACT POINT. I REPLACED THE ORIGINAL TENSION SCREW WITH A BRASS ONE.
I HAVE 25 PLUS YEARS OF EXPERIENCE RESTORING PLANES AND AS ALWAYS MY NUMBER ONE GOAL IS TO PUT OUT A HIGH QUALITY PLANE THAT WORKS EXCELLENT AND A TOOL YOU CAN BE PROUD TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION OR WORK SHOP.
