<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Leonardo Scherer, post: 409613, member: 8633&quot;]Hey guys, finally finished my block plane restoration.</p><p>It took me about 5 hours of sanding on the sole and the sides, mostly with 100 grit sand paper, and some with 40 grit, then I went with 220 and 320 to make it smoother and some passes on the leather strop to polish a bit.</p><p>The blade had some mushing, from setting with a hammer, got&nbsp; rid of that with the file and then sanded the whole blade and polished it.</p><p>The palm piece was just sanded with 320 grit sand paper, just to get rid of the rust. </p><p>The piece the screws into the palm piece had to be welded, and I painted it black.</p><p>The body was cleaned of the rust and old paint, and then I repainted it, not very glad with the paint job.</p><p>The wood knob is not the original one, and it&#039;s cracked, I would glue it, but I got my glue tube glued to the kitchen bench yesterday, so I need some more glue... I just sanded it and coated it with bes wax and olive oil mix.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/eVoshyM.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/FHn2bg0.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/g8LdbYQ.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/aUXbJAT.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/ZIywPxY.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/E2opQvx.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/baFOqjI.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/GZPecHd.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/gIeJNSh.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/cfWRewC.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
