Don, all that for less than $100! Whatever your rehab process, it restored the #7 back to its former beautiful self. $20 bucks and a little elbow grease…that’s simply amazing.

I’ve heard that the #130 doesn’t score well on the user scale, but boy is it eye catching. You’ve gotta like a plane that has two mouths for a blade. Been on the lookout for one around here (north Denver). But alas, after a year of looking I only just last week scored what I’d call a quality plane. The rest have made up a pitiful parade of Craftsman, Handyman, and no name brand bench planes.
