I cant be the only person with a Record/Stanley plane thats been acquired and although its a bit tatty worth bring back to life as a good user plane. The bit I never seem to get right (well to my eyes anyway) is how to refinish the Lever Cap some are chromed some not - see attached photo of a...

Try any trade builders merchants they have it in the yard and load customers trucks vans and such with a digger machine. Take a bucket or two they will sell to you - based on recent trip

Depending on what you want to do - consider a very inexpensive set of 5 made by Irwin Marples sold by Toolstation for £29.99 reduced from £44.98 as a first set. I know others will shout but I still think well worth a look.

There is a Sealey.co.uk site - perhaps an email to them might help, give any serial numbers and as much info as you have. Or Toolden.co.uk they seem to be Sealey dealers - hope this helps

I have some Holly that has been dead and dry for years still standing by leaning on others about 8" diameter at the largest, any good for chisel handles?

Well to me it looks as if the faceplate is distorted, what does the spindle look like when its running without the faceplate? Any chance of another video without faceplate please? Ive just looked at the spares page and the spindle assembly looks easy to remove...

Veritas mk11 easy to use and well made. Diamond stone or wet and dry

Thank you all - Having tried on a Record sash clamp I can see how they work now. Not sure I will be using them anytime soon but at least they are no longer in the junk category. :)

I have had these for years and never found where they belong. Both have screw clamping parts and slots so they must fit into something and then tighten against so if you know please share the info :) Overall length about 10" thanks

Or a good shot with a catapult - silent but deadly :)

Hi Linus Thats pretty good thank you - you (me/I) learn something new every day! Ive followed through searching on the NSN info and as you suggest this is exactly what its is a 9 digit NSN and supplied by the UK also evidenced by the broad arrow and the 89 must be the year of manufacture. By its...

Being for home use and thats its a Makita I don't think you can go wrong, NB its a bare machine no battery or charger!

IMO just buy a new drill for what I suspect you are drilling (pilot drill holes for screw hooks cuphook size) and how often it will used I would suggest a new drill such as a Draper - will do what you need. Robert Dyas info below.. An old one is likely to be worn out Draper 8mm 3/8" Chuck...

Just looked battery not included charger not included so thats an extra £35 or £45 depending on which charger you buy. The batteries are only 4ah so wont last long running a chain saw. I would give it a miss - be handy though but........................ nah

I go with powertools as the correct (best) way, so teeth facing forward on a hacksaw

I have a few too many planes that I have accumulated over the years and while having a bit of a tidy I looked a bit harder at my Record Marples No 04. No idea when/where it came from/how longI've had it but its been tucked safely away and I never got around to using it. However I noticed today...

A few years ago I went through a phase of buying derelict planes such as Record Stanley and suchlike, most had broken handles (totes) and after fixing a few made a repair jig. Didn't take too long ,a bit of trial and error with angles and there it was, afterwards tucked it away in a drawer and...

I've been given the basket case of a Stanley 130 - I have time to bring it back to life but the cutter/iron is missing. Please let me know if you have Stanley (only) spare please, thank you
