Last weekend I took the train to Sydney to stay with a sister and go to the Wood Show. The sister and brother-in-law are getting the house ready to sell so there has been great activity shifting nearly 40 years of accumulating "stuff". They started before Christmas last year and are still going.
Anyway the brother-in-law wanted me to stop a door from jambing. He picked up a No 4½ Stanley hand plane. Being Sydney the plane was exhibiting a rusty build up on the sole as well as the blade and chip breaker, I asked for an oil stone and was handed a duel grade stone 100mm X 50mm that was loose-no wooden case to house it. I dismantled the plane and commenced a partial tidy up of the rusted parts. I really needed a bench grinder but had to go without. There was a curve in the blade which made me think that it had been sharpened for a "jack plane" type of work OR had it been a handyman sharpen that went wrong.

Anyway I persevered and finally got a sharp edge to fix the door.

The plane needed to run past the lock so it had to be removed. I ended up planing 2mm off around the latch. Now reassembly....I needed to deepen the latch recess due to me planing it out. I needed a chisel.....yep it was rusted and VERY blunt. It too had the unmistakable curve of a jack plane with very rounded corners. Now I really needed a bench grinder to give me square corners to recess out for the latch. So I just concentrated on the curvy edge and got a reasonable edge but no square corners with just the oil stone.

In summing up....the job to plane the door to clear the jamb only took about 7 minutes. To get the tools to a state that was usable....at least 30mins. The brother-in-law is an Accountant. Need I say more
