Block Plane Restoration

I was interested to see what work went into restoring a hand plane since most hand tool users recommend buying an older plane and restoring it versus buying new.

This video shows the steps that I went through to clean and tune my Miller Falls Block Plane. I was given the block plane for free and even thought the sole and cap have numbers engraved into them, I do not know the actual model # or year it was made, I was told it was from the 1960's but the logo on the cap makes me think it is newer than that.

Special thanks goes out to Nick Laeder who gave me a new cap iron and spinwheel after I posted a video on Instagram showing the original spinwheel stripped so that it would not tighten making the tool useless.
