Bag it came in had a few holes in it.   And what was inside was covered in bubble wrap.....with not a scratch on it..

Sears 107-37031 block plane.   just a tad rusty....sides were unfinished and very rough. Sole wasn't too hateful...

It did have a Cocobolo knob out in front..

Note the time stamp.    Time to get this thing cleaned up, before Supper?

Might be a bit better?  The nickle plating was just flaking off, Cleaned the rest off.  Those rough, painted sides were sanded down  a bit.   Wiped the grime off the knob.

Sole is now cleaned up, and as flat as needed, for a block plane.   iron has been rehabbed a bit.  it even makes a shaving or two..

So, under all that rust and paint?    Meet the Millers Falls No.75     Their version of a Stanley No.220   $9 with free shipping got this thing into the shop.   that front knob is full of black and red stripes, Cocobolo wood for a knob. 

Fancy....

Another successful operation by Dr. Newman.

Good job, Steve.

Man, Steve, you get your patients thru the office faster than my doctor!

 

Nice Job!

Nice! I have that plane (mine's a 107.37032B) and it doesn't look anywhere as nice as yours. Funny, I didn't notice they had the mocel # engraved on the side until I saw your pic; I wondered who made the plane, thanks for that.
