oh ye it goes white after u sharpen it but its not like ur typical rust, my chisel steel looks 'seasoned'

oh ye my chisel is the sharpest, takes hair no problem. u can c urself on the back of the chisel. My plane is sharp as hell, takes full length full width shavings on most woods. I think ill take my...

hi yall, my chisel steel is a bit dark, its second hand. Is that surface rust?

imma snap pictures and get em processed, maybe a few pictures

thanks for ur advice, but ill probably bring my tools ne ways. i got nothing to lose and my plane n chisel r better than everyone elses neways. No point in bringing pictures imo, cant prove i made it...

my one is a bit dark, is that surface rust?

hi yall, my chisel handle says on it 'Ridgeway' but theres some letters before it thats now GONE. Nebody can ID my chisel based on that info?

after charging it the performance is certainly alot better than before, im derusting a lever cap now. Bubbles are more pronounced than b4.

no no all i have to do is charge it up a bit and it'll work beautifully!

yea i clean it off every now and then. Man the rust ate into my 300mm ruler! imma try a chipbreaker now haha.

oh yea thats what it is right there my friend. im not gonna let people discourage me from derusting my parts. Man is it ever so slow.

naw naw it works cuz i can c the process working b4 my eyes

yeah i have read the manual. sure it generates a current when not connected to a battery (i think so ne ways, i charged it for 12 hrs b4 use). i am drawing 11 volts it says on the gauge. I used...

huh, interesting stuff force. imma consider both options.

hi yall, where can i buy chisel caps on the internet? so far i've had no luck.

i got a problem with my electrolysis process, its taking forever and the plane is not even half done. Should i use a DC-DC power cord? what does it even do? i've put the plane in the water for like 3...

mild steel eh? would a chipbreaker qualify as mild steel?

im hesitant to use candle wax because it 'creams' for a lack of a better term.

really candle wax works? i've been using it and didnt feel any improvement, might have to look on that again.

hey yall, whats a good wax for my plane sole something that slides good.

yea apprently if ur using stanless steal sacrifical metal it releases poisonous stuff into the water. i just dump it on my backyard lawn.

my plane has rust under the paintwork and i never manually remove that crud of rust!

another question, does putting more baking soda make the process go quicker? the process is going really slowly atm.

i bought my charger from ebay. When it arrived i was like YES! i can do my experiment now. Honestly i wanna c that nasty soup cause then ill know it worked real well. I can c it working before my...

oh its u again, i remember u hollar'd at me in the other thread. Must admit ur restoration is pro.

i use stainless steel, although a youtube video says to use ordinary mild steel. im trying the citric acid bath now i hope it works out for the better.

no stanley chisels are GOOD.

citric acid? this might b a stupid question but aint that stuff inside lemons? i remember it from that simpsons episode where springvale and shelbiville fought over the lemon tree (haha). I'll give...

hey derek where u buy ur magnifying glass? i need one for real.

i got king waterstones, they awesome. never seperate em, NEVER.

ahahhaha oh my bad, i just read my item specs and it says 400 amps, guess thats OK then :D

hi yall, im using electrolysis to remove rust off my old handplane. The charger i use is 12v, is that enough power? how much washing powder do i put in the water?

every store got spokeshaves bro. Flee market is the better way to go.

u know what is funny, my last name is xu lol. cheap brand it is.

hi derek where can i get that big magnet in the article entitled 'lapping the back of blades'?

they look good bro

if ur cashed up then by all means get a higher angle frog. Another way to go is to put a backbevel on ur iron. Putting on a backbevel increases the effective cutting angle of the plane. Although i'd...

oh wow the only thing i've seen close to that is on the lie nielsen website with a similar twisted looking plane. Do sharpen it up and take shavings, love to c how it performs

hey guys i got a woodriver as well, its an absolutely beast of a plane
