March 6, 201610 yr This came in the mail yesterday, finally Ohio Tool Co. 0-7. Wood was in great shape, too. Other things weren't so much. Iron and chipbreaker were bent, badly. Got the chipbreaker almost straightened back out, the iron? Hammer didn't work, a vise and my hands was even worse....SNAP!! Bummer. I have a spare, but it is a Stanley version... Took a while to rehab the rest, but Same plane. Now, IF you want all the gorey details......
March 7, 201610 yr Steve, Nice looking O7! I Might be able to provide an Ohio Iron for it but not certain. I will look what is in the box when I can get some shop time. I know that I had one from a donor O7 a year ago or so but not sure if I still have it. Mine was an O7 that had become 2 three and a halves so I parted it out. Brent

Silverado Trucks. sells and installs all sorts of custom parts for trucks. happens to have a decent welder...Mig or Tig, one of the wire types. Next time I'm over there, I might se IF he could weld the blade back up.... Fred: It didn't really take all that long on this one....I have had a lot worse. Some even took a second day to do...
