Recycled – a world of free opportunities. I love the society we’re living in, our lifestyle, work ethics and spirit of entrepreneurship and adventure.
BUT, we are a shockingly wasteful society. If you’ve had the good fortune to travel through third world countries, you would have seen that everything possible is reused, re-purposed or recycled. Restoring a Stanley No 7 Jointer Plane. Every time I see an article in a woodworking magazine about restoring an old plane, it's usually a Stanley No 4 smooth plane.
While a smooth plane is probably one of the most important planes to own, it certainly shouldn't be the only plane you have in your arsenal of tools. A jointer plane is extremely handy for jointing the edges of boards straight as well as leveling the tops of wide panels flat. In fact I probably use my jointer just as much as I use a smoother. So I decided to write a blog and show how easy it is to refurbish an old jointer and put it back to use.
