You can spend several hours working away with sand-paper and rust-removers, or you can get all the hard work done fast with a standard, 6-inch bench grinder. In this video, I&#8217;ll show you how to use a coarse grinding wheel and a fine wire-wheel to de-rust, clean, and sharpen an old plane in under an hour. When we&#8217;re done, your plane will look and feel good and be ready to use. <\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if you don&#8217;t have a grinder, I recommend Mitch Peacock&#8217;s excellent hand-tool method. This is the first plane restoration video I ever saw and I used it to restore my first plane: <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ZtfS-EMtBho\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ZtfS-&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I also highly recommend Paul Sellers method.
