THE BODY AND FROG WAS STRIPPED THEN SEVERAL COATS OF FINISH ARE APPLIED TO COME UP WITH A VERY THICK AND DURABLE FINISH WHICH IS THEN BAKED ON AND ALLOWED TO CURE . THIS PROCESS TAKES 7 TO 10 DAYS.
ALL THE HARDWARE IS CLEANED AND OILED. ALL THE THREAD HOLES IN THE BODY AND FROG ARE CLEANED AND OILED.
THE ROSEWOOD TOTE AND KNOB ARE BOTH CLEANED AND SMOOTH OUT THEN BOTH ARE WAXED AND POLISHED SEVERAL TIMES TO GET A VERY SMOOTH NATURAL FINISH. I DID HAVE TO REPAIR THE HORN ON THE TOTE. BOTH LOOK GREAT
THE SOLE IS HAND LAPPED "FLAT". ALL THE EDGES OF THE SOLE ARE RELIEVED. GROVES HAVE ALL BEEN CLEANED
CHEEKS ARE CLEANED AND HAND LAPPED.
THE RAIL'S WERE CLEANED AND SMOOTHED OUT.
CAP IRON WAS CLEANED THEN LAPPED AT ITS CONTACT POINT.
THE CUTTER WAS LAPPED THEN SHARPENED. ITS EXTREMELY SHARP AND CUTS EXCELLENT SHAVINGS.THE EDGE END IS ALMOST FULL LENGHT THE TOP OF THE CUTTER HAD BEEN DAMAGE FROM PREVIOUS OWNER SO I REMOVE SOME OF IT BUT OTHER THAN COSMETIC ITS NO ISSUE AT ALL.
THE LEVER CAP WAS CLEANED THEN LAPPED AT ITS CONTACT POINT. THIS IS A TYPE 12 LEVER CAP.
I HAVE 25 PLUS YEARS OF EXPERIENCE RESTORING PLANES AND AS ALWAYS MY NUMBER ONE GOAL HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO PUT OUT A HIGH QUALITY PLANE THAT WORKS EXCELLENT AND IS SOMETHING YOU CAN BE PROUD TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION OR WORK SHOP.
I'm sorry but this is truly ridiculous when a completely restored no.7 is not worth 0.00 just a decent plane will run well over 0.00 without all the work done on it. Its great to see that quality work , reputation , years of experience and a superb seller rating still means something.
100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEED.
