    Type 11 Complete

    Well it's not perfect but close enough for me to be proud of. Here's a link to some pics. Sorrry about the green tint- red was a bad choice.

    Ryan,

    That plane looks great, did you pour molten glass over the totes? I believe I could see myself in that front knob and I wasn't even there.

    I thought about it but I opted for deft gloss in a spray can. A woodnetter told me I should do something about it. Should I use some 0000 steel wool?

    Ryan, fine steel wool will help bring the shine down. After you used the steel wool you can use a slow speed buffer (dremmel on low speed) to get the scratches out. If you dont have a buffer a terrycloth and some furniture polish will work.

    Ryan you just raised the bar for my #7!

    Why do I hear a little voice saying,"See,I told at the flea market I can look as good as I work." It's a beauty;thanks for the inspiring photos.
    Hope I,m not the only one that hears their tools talking to them! Thanks again,Ralph

    Very nice work. How do you get the body so shiny? I have used steel wool with mild acid or WD-40 and while that method will clean off the rust it certainly doesn't produce such an amazing shine.
