    Re: The Woodworking Thread

    Just finished this one last night. Posted it on eBay and it sold already. First time that’s happened for me.

    Stanley Defiance No.4 produced between 1939-1950.

    Re: The Woodworking Thread

    Finished this one this evening.

    1950-1953 Sargent Hercules “Golden Cutter” Bench Plane.

    This one was a hot mess when I got it. It was a total restore.

    Nice job Wicked, can you sell restored tools for decent money or is it just a hobby?

    I’ve actually turned it into a fairly successful side business. I’m trying to get a small woodworking business off the ground. It started as a hobby, but I really enjoy it and I’ve gotten a decent following on Instagram and locally for some of the things I’ve made and restored.

    If anything, restoring vintage tools makes a couple of bucks here and there that I can use to support woodworking.

    Do you get most of your old tools at yard sales?

    Yard sales, estate sales, swap meets, Facebook marketplace, EBAY....

    I think the best deals are at yard sales. You can find some good deals at swap meets, but most of the time those guys know what they have.
