CLEANING RUSTY STANLEY RABBET PLANES

Chester Spier shows his method for cleaning rusty planes without any vinegar. He uses three planes in this video to show this. A No. 182 iron rabbet plane, a No. 191 iron rabbet plane , and a No. 78 iron rabbet / fillester plane, all by STANLEY.
This video is not meant as an instructional video on how to restore a plane but rather to clean and tune it for use. The methods prescribed here are Chester Spier’s methods that he has perfected for his own use and may be critiqued by some restorers and collectors who strive for perfection.
All safety measures, including gloves , goggles and dust masks are recommended in the partaking of performing these tasks.
