Wanted to show off the Christmas gift my crew at work got me. 26” wooden jointer plane. Complete with iron, chipbreaker and wedge. Needs a little work to get it back in shape but pretty sweet. The iron shows Providence Tool Compay and is bimetal, cast iron to carbon steel. Not sure if it’s original to the plane but it’s about right for the period.

Got the iron back to sharp Cuts nicely, but was hard to hold onto. Saw a place that does refurbs for a living, and they also had an #81.....with a tall knob. Hmmm, well, I can clean off the work bench (10 minute job right there) and drag out the wood lathe, again. Blank of spalted maple was in need of squaring one end, tried to hand saw that. Three different saws.....end was almost square. Fired up the lathe. Plan ( Plan? I don't need no stinking Plan) to turn two bench plane knobs. There was enough room between them to squeeze a block plane knob in there too. All sanded down, parted off, and ready to trim the ends smooth. Beltsander? Nah, it threw one knob across the shop! Ok, narrow belt-sander. Meh..... ONE bench plane knob turned out decently, the other ....not so decently. Drilled hole through all three. About the same results. One GOOD knob. Went and dug up a steel, slotted screw. Installed the Kanoobie on the front porch of the #81, and started coating it in oil well...not too bad. Looking more like a plane, now I did try this set up before the oil went on, Nice and easy to use now. Shavings flew out, even on Oak. Might just be a keeper

I can't seem to find the exact American company who makes this wood plane and I would appreciate any help. The frog is stamped steel. I'll provide some pictures.
