Stanley No. 220 Plane Restoration | Part I
The first tool restoration! This is a really neat Stanley No. 220 Block Plane! This is the first part in this series of restoring this plane. I will be showing you my full process for restoring this tool!

Well, admire your attention to detail, but you entitle your vid as ‘restoration’, ensuring the block and blade are flat and the blade sharpened certainly fall under the category of ‘restoration’, after all, an attractive plane that won’t cut is of little use for anything but a decoration.
Nice job, what kind of paint are you using?
Are you using a primer before painting? If not, what paint? Thanks. Tom
Great job!!
Nice job young man! It is a breath of fresh air to see a young person working with tools.
Hey Wesley – nice video. You do a great job explaining your techniques. I enjoy restoring old tools as well and find it a great way to get wonderful tools inexpensively. Keep ’em coming – enjoyed this.
Nice video. One question for you: how come you flattened the base without the lever cap on it? I have always heard that the lever cap can cause the cast iron bottom of the base to flex slightly so if you flatten without the cap when the cap is installed it is no longer dead flat.
Nice job. Keep up the good work!
I just bought one of these little beauties at a garage sale. It’s in nice shape and I’m sure I can get my $10 out of this tool in the lifetime I’ll own it. Great video. You have a nice small shop and workbench. I would include a little more backstory of the plane, years produced, common uses, what sets it apart from a 21. Keep up the good work.
You do not know what u r doing! Why put paper on your workbench and not put anything behind your grinder!U R weird
Great video! good job!
I just found one of these but it is missing parts .do you know where to find parts for it?
Great job. I am a little bit limited on space, so I really liked the way you set up your portable grinder.
Read some of the negative comments. Don’t let the bastards get you down. Awesome job my friend!
