Making a hand plane tote using only hand tools from Zebrawood. this was made mostly with saws, rasps, files, a bow sander and a brace and bit. the shaping time was about 45 minutes the whole project was under 2 hours of work. this is made to fit a Stanley 10 1/4 you can find out more about the plane here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYWQqtwMzRw

Sorry for being Captain Obvious, but wouldn’t a bow saw be the way to go for those curves? (Beautiful tote by the way!)
Do you have an updated website to find the tote print outs? I just tried to look and it said the website wasn’t available or something like that
Nice work. I just received a 608 in the mail today. The tote was broken in shipping. The link to the tote patterns isn’t working anymore if you have an updated link?
Simply gorgeous!

Thanks for posting a video on this. I recently bought an old #5 stanley plane with a broken tote. Now I can replace it with a new one. While I do use power tools I love seeing your work with hand tools.
Is that a clogs?
As everyone is saying, the new wooden parts that you’ve added look so beautiful ! Do you think, though, that with with parts you’ve made, you should stamp on the underside of them a "maker’s name" and date ? In years to come, people are going to come along and say "Wow ! This is SO unique ! Now WHO made these ? Maybe their name is on the underside of the wood ?". It must be a lovely wood to work with – a malleable hardwood ? Imagine trying to rasp a piece of softwood ! There would quickly be nothing left ! It was great to see your tip about the ring on the bit too – there’s so much in these videos ! Excellent stuff – many thanks !

Looks beautiful
Hi, what is the goal of putting wax on top of shellac?
Great job itโs tempting to find some nice wood and give a plane or two some life.
Try a Stanley No. 10 1/4. The 12 1/4 is a scraper plane.
3:08 Miyagi would love this! Karate (empty hand) tool woodworking!
I like the smack the wood technique!! ๐ฑ๐คฃ
I’ve always wondered why the grain on a tote is orientated horizontal instead of verticle, isn’t there greater risk of it breaking that way?
Great video. Looking forward to taking on a similar project for an old stanley plough plane i have which has a plastic tote. Been planning on replacing this for a wooden tote for a while. Do you have any tips with the orientation of the wood for best strength? Thank you!
That’s simply AMAZING James. Thanks for sharing.
Very nice work. I was curious on the clogs you were wearing?
This project came out really beautiful.
I’ve had a couple of such clamps for years but seldom use them. I always found them to be clumsy compared to iron F clamps. But using them to hold things for carving/shaping like this in the vise is BRILLIANT! Thanks for sharing this.
Is that the harbor freight wooden Guage i see? I bought one a month ago looks familiar to the one I got
Glad I found these 2 vids, seems I have a need to replace a tote and knob on a No 4. Stanley modern era โCarpenterโs โ plane – pretty much a cheap version of a Handyman of old – but you can buy it new for more than a much better No4 in need of some love ๐
Splitting Wood – Not necessarily a bad thing. It showed the woods weak spot. Best thing to do is glue it and clamp it tight right away. Just stop and glue and come back later.
The wood will actually be stronger there and the glue line will be invisible.
Done it many times. Doesn’t waste the wood either. Heavy grained wood (Zebra Wood) has a tendency to split through a weak spot that is invisible.
You can see this happening when you just break off chunks of wood rather than cut if off.
You’re making me scared to use my small scrap pieces of zebra, because it looks so nice I want to use it for a special project
Very nice tote! Thanks for showing the broken pieces also, it gives encouragement to us who frequently make mistakes!
Curious to follow the reason for having the swivelling tote on this type of plane. Iโve had a Type 10 for years and have never had the need to consider that alternative! Presumably the sole casting needs to be manufactured to accommodate that function.
Beautiful
James James James, What are you doin to me lol I need to make a tote for a #7 and now Iโm thinking I gotta get something as beautiful as the zebra wood. Incredible work thanks so much. Take Care
Nice looking tote! the worst thing about it is the smell while you are making it. I’m not sure I would have enjoyed all that rasp and file work. Final product looks worth it though.
Enjoyed your video and gave it a Thumbs Up
Man that top of the tote got a pretty thin.
Great again James. Little trick drill the bolt hole first then if you run off you can adjust your template on the wood.
Pretty tote! Apparently, though I’m not a big guy, many planes were made for people with much smaller hands and because of clearance issues I’ve had to redesign the replacement tote to clear the iron. Especially transition planes which are in abundance here.
Iโm very new to hand planes I picked up a #5 fixed the broken tote and took off all the old finish this video is exactly what I was looking for Thanks James You are an excellent teacher Between you and Rex Krueger Iโm developing an addiction to hand planes ๐
Just bought a transitional stanley jointer and the tote horn was busted, so I came to this video.
I made a handle and tote myself as a first hand tool project. Iโm rather pleased that you used similar methods to me. Though I got the grain direction on the tote wrong. Finished with blo and paste wax๐
Beautiful! I have bought a few things from Bob Kuane, he is a great source of parts and a good guy to deal with.
That Zebra wood is gorgeous, but you need to be really careful with it. Because of the pattern, if you put it down in the workshop you won’t be able to find it again and everyone knows that Zebra wood has those markings as a sort of camouflage to help it avoid being eaten by predators!!! Hang on ๐ค …… no, that’s actual Zebra not Zebra wood. I’d still loose it in my workshop!! LOL
Awesome work James! ๐๐๐ป๐๐ป
Zebrawood is amazing. Nice work
I like your shoes, they’re really cute…..success sir๐_love from Indonesian village children
