Plough Plane Project
So, this grubbly plane, like Fraser, needs a good clean.
Beech, with brass tips, escutcheons and depth stop screw.
You do not need to put on the marigolds or find a buffing wheel to clean it up. Nothing too heavy is needed , just a bit of tender loving care with a bit of fine wire wool to clean off a few idle paint marks, years of dust layers and a minor amount of surface rust. We think this...
