Vintage Stanley Bedrock 604 1/2C Wood Plane
Vintage Stanley Bedrock 604 1/2 Wood Plane. The plane has been restored. All the fixings and moving parts have been cleaned and well oiled. The sole has been flattened using a granite slab and buffed to 10,000 grit, it glides across the wood effortlessly.
The cheeks have also been cleaned and buffed to 10,000 grit. The brass fixings, depth adjuster knob, blade, chip breaker and lever cap have all been cleaned and buffed. The handles have been stripped, sanded, had 3 coats of wax applied and a couple of coats of clear lacquer applied for protection. This showcases the grain of the rosewood beautifully, they look good and feel great in the hand. The blade has been sharpened using a Sorby pro edge machine set at 25 degrees.
It's been sharpened to 3,000 grit using a 3M trizac belt and then honed on a leather strop, so it's razor sharpe. The plane appears to be a mixture of a type 3 and type 6. This puts the plane at well over 100 years old. It's in great condition for its age and is good to work straight away.
