but you installed a new stone on a new shaft, was the original shaft actually bent? You didn't show installing old stone on new shaft.

Thanks

I’m listening to this video on headphones and only the left channel is audible.

That was one very good plane even before you refurbished it. I currently have a no.6 type 19 made in England I am restoring at the moment. It had black enamel rethar than jappaning. The paint had flaked in some areas and bubled in a couple of others so I had to remove it. Appart from that it was in very good condition with very light surface rust most of which came of with a scotchbright pad. I did resort to a rust remover bath though just to make sure I got all of it. The old enamel I used painstripper to remove. The body has now had two coats of zinc based primer and two top coats. I think the third one will do it. I am currently debating on how much work to put on the frog as its paint is in a lot better condition than what the body had. So it might just be a case of re-seating the frog as there was some rust on its front pads and the matching ones on the body. As it is going to be user I will be remaking the tote as that is baeklite and I hate the feal of it on my hands.

Hey Jerill what part of WVA are you located?

Great modification!

I have to disagree with you that moisture meters are "extremely inaccurate". That might be so for $20 meters that someone buys off Amazon. I use a high quality Lignomat system in my kiln with probes and have found it to be very accurate. An oven dry test does not always tell you the full story. It can't tell you if the core is wetter than the shell on thicker lumber. It gives you an average EMC of that sample. For thick lumber and slabs, I can insert probes in both the core and shell and know in real time what the differential is. The oven dry test is also dependent on where the sample was taken. The end of a board can be much drier than the center.

Well done! Love the wooden hinges too.

Where did hardware come from?

I'd be interested in knowing the cost of the Machine and upgrades and how that compares with the new machine. My complete system, with clamps, jigs and stone cost less than just the Tormek whetstone wheel and a replacement wheel for mine is £23 for an 8-inch wheel that does the same job as the Tormek wheel.

Very interesting learned slot about marking gauges

I'm sorry that I missed the live stream. Great discussion, very informative and interesting.

Hi

I picked up a T2000 with the magnum accessory kit for $500 Canadian pesos last week. The previous owner just used the knife jigs and the rest were still new in boxes. Truing up the wheel reduced the size to 245 mm. I think I got a great deal on it. Can't wait to get the planer and jointer blades sharp.

Has anyone ever upgraded the universal support by dying the vertical bar to add a micro adjust screw and taping the end of the horizontal bar to add a blocking nut?

I am refurbishing my old T2000, so here I am. Wow, the metal drive wheel is a must have over the substandard injection molded thing that came with my machine. Thanks for the video.

Great info for us T-2000 owners. A parts list with links would be super helpful.

Great advice. And thanks for the shout-out!

Great stuff - thanks for sharing

brilliant out of the box thinking! ❤

Informative buddy. I’m still looking for a good affordable moisture meter

I have a medium sized red oak that's died on me now. The leaves all came out this year, were green and now is brown. Parts of the tree done that last year, but now the whole tree. Think I should wait to fell it?

You should have more views and subscribers. Thanks.

Good info. Thanks

Thank you for this video. My great aunt Ella owned a ceder chest with wooden rollers, that is built similar to one of the journeyman chests but much larger. She kept blankets, quilts, and family photo and scrapbooks in it. Seeing those chests brought back a lot of childhood memories.

I made a wooden wheel and put it on my steel wheelbarrow.

I have a Morgan 10A vise that i just recently purchased and would like to restore. The dog was stuck in the down position, but I got it freed. My question is how did you get the dog handle out so i can remove the dog and file the opening so it moves freely?

no sound

would this kind of vise be good integrated to the table? I’ve been researching what kind of vises I should build to my bench so it’d be as versatile as possible and at this point of time im thinking of as wide of ”moxon vice” as you can place in front of the table, and wagon vice to the right end. Do you think that would work or do you have any recommendations how I could make it more usable

Accessible, but will get full of dust.

Very helpfull video, thank you for taking time to make it.

Love that jointer

So happy I found your channel. Why didn’t you show using the domino on the leg?

What size acme screw did you use ?

Thanks for your video. I have T2000 and while changing shop I noticed the bottom of the Machine was starting to rust sitting in the turn table I purchased years ago. I drill small drain holes and touch up the paint after removing the rust. Be careful with turn table holding water and Good luck with your Tormek..

Well done! Two very minor points: the new drive wheel, a major upgrade, is actually made of zinc. Also, when hanging or cleaning the shaft, don't forget to put a little white lithium grease on the two bushings. I look forward to your future ideos

Good video. I know Scott Phillips has a purple one that he uses on his show.

Very good information there. Thanks for sharing. It’s nice knowing that T-2000 will continue to keep sharpening tools with another owner. Tormeks have been know to be handed down to another generation especially in Sweden… Just Subscribed. Ron

I lucked into purchasing a late production 2000 and also found the stainless shaft on a closeout at Craft Supplies. I'll examine the plastic drive wheel and upgrade to the aluminum replacement if when it cracks or breaks. Good video. Thank you.

👍👍👍

I have a T8 but have considered getting an older model with a different wheel installed. What was your final cost in your upgrade (including the T2000 unit) compared to a new T8?

That was fantastic… Do you have a cut list on the cost for each upgrade?

Your wooden replacement knob is fantastic. Lots of useful info in this video, great work!

Brilliant Jerill! Thank you for another outstanding tutorial.

Excellent content, very well done!

Lovely work... trying to get plans for this off of your website for my husband. He would like to build for our upcoming new grandchild. I have subscribed.

Really like the modification on the offset. Comes in handy!

Thanks for the detailed explanation on the build. I'll get around to building one of these one of these days. I also like that rather than being integrated into the bench you've made it removable and easily clamps up to any surface. I saved this video and will reproduce a vice just like yours, again, one of these days 😊

That is such a beautiful heirloom piece that the family will cherish for generations to come. Absolutely beautiful work Mr Vance!!

some VERY good points.
