This is the stanley 606 after a cleanup. Thanks Hmerkle.

HOLY CRAP!
I think I want it back! LOL

Seriously - GREAT job there... now, how does it cut?!

Very nice! Agree with Hank that's a great job!

Is it for use or show? Just curious because some folks love to collect/restore/show and others prefer to collect/restore/use. Not disparaging either mindset. Just inquiring.

Maybe not a daily driver for you, or maybe it will be, but just wondering what work you will give it.

I’m happy somebody got it and will take care of it. You did a proper cleanup.

I like to cleanup and use. This one will hopefully be used a lot. It does need some more blade work. The iron was sharpened like a scrub plane.

That's how I use my #6.

I was thinking of a shooting board plane because of the weight.
