Hi Everyone,
I picked up a Stanley 71 1/2 router plane and I'm looking to restore and use it but had a few questions that I'm hoping the group can help with!
1. Has anyone built a fence to go along with this? I tried google and I don't believe this came with a fence originally
2. This should be 1.b really but what are the screw holes for? I'm assuming to add a base of some sort?
3. I haven't used vinegar yet to dissolve rust but I'm thinking I may need to do that with this plane. Any tips on doing this besides ensuring I don't leave it too long?
That's all for now actually. I can't wait to bring this back to life and get to use it!
