Thanks, Eddie. I can’t wait for it either! Haha! I’m getting a little tired of the necessary evil of these shop builds and upgrades - but it is giving me a new found respect and knowledge of these tools!
@@HonestWorkDesigns Don't get me wrong. I have enjoyed watching you restore the family tools that were passed on to you. The emphasis on family is a definite plus for me, but the main reason that I enjoy watching you is the unique creativity manifested in your projects plus to be entirely transparent....there is just something about your onscreen personality that is pleasing and attractive to me. TH-cam is like that to me. I look for woodworking content presented by pleasant and appealing personalities. Stay safe. Ed
These same planners were made under different brands, Delta, Jet, Woodtek, Grizzly and others. It’s the same base but with a different brand slapped on them. Great restoration, can’t wait to do mine.
Been there, done that. With a Delta 15" instead of a Jet, but basically the same machine, after my basement workshop was flooded with 43" of water and mud. I took mine completely down, rollers, anti-kickback pawls and all. Took over a month of working evenings and weekends as the mood stuck. Nice job.
Thank you for this amazing, informative video. I'm attempting a restoration of a similar model and your video has been an invaluable resource. Keep up the great work!
Glad it was helpful Kevin! Since this video, I’ve also taken apart the gear box to restore, so don’t hesitate to reach out if you find a question there!
Thank you for sharing this video. You are awesome! I just got the same exact planer and was in great shape so I only cleaned it and fixed some minor issues. You’re right about having to get used to that kind of power.😜
Thanks, Robert! Not pictured were later gearbox tweaks too - I don’t pretend to be an expert, but don’t hesitate to reach out if you run into any hurdles. Happy to help people learn from my mistakes haha!
Good episode. I'm really impressed that you were able to get it all back together without a basket of unused parts. (that's my go-to move) I wish I had a sink in my garage too.
Thanks, Ron! I have to admit - there are three small washers I’m pretty sure go on the casing, but I had left over after putting it all back together! Haha!
Haha - I really thought about it. But my dad gave it that wobble (on accident) when he was using those tools - felt wrong (because it also doesn’t affect the function) to take that story away. Haha!
Long ago a friend stressed that I should wear steel capped boots when working on machines. I only took his advise seriously after a 22kg motor slipped from my hands and fractured my big toe's distal phalanx.
Thank you for the video. I have a question. I recently acquired the same planer. When turning the wheel to raise the height, it takes 2 hands with a lot of strength. Why would this be? The 2 lock knobs are unlocked. Thx you
I just bought the floor model version of this (took my back unloading it and then 5 grown men to move it) it’s just missing the outfeed rollers. Mine has this issue that the lock for the thickness /platform elevation is not locking into place plus I don’t think the previous owner cleaned it a lot. Really tempted to do the same you did tho. Do you have any input into the aforementioned lock knob issue before I just go to town?
Well, that was a lot of work! I am sure you learnt a lot about your planer. After all that cleaning and reassembly, I really am impressed with your end result. Would you consider diagonal bracing to control racking of the base? Or isn’t it necessary? The bent winder - is it the handle or the shaft? Worth fixing with the judicious application of heat or does it add “character”? Anyway, well done - time for a rest on your laurels.
Thanks, Alan! It really was, I don’t know if you can tell by the video, but this project really took it out of me! Re the racking, I think in theory it wouldn’t be the end all be all since the machine doesn’t create a lot of lateral motion, but I think when I add table extension, i might put something in there to just be over cautious. As far as the wonky wheel, my dad put that “unique” shaping in there in his own shop accident. Something about that back story (plus it doesn’t affect the function) made me wan to keep it a little off kilter :)
HonestWork Designs ah, the wonky wheel has a family history link attached - keep it.... It looked like a lot of work and I noticed concentration and focus which is entirely appropriate for a task like that. Have a rest on your verandah with a cool drink and have one for me. As to the possible racking of your stand, I was thinking more about when you’re pushing it around in the medium term, it might rack sideways a bit against dust and debris on the floor.
Great work. But two things: 1. Why didn't you sharpen the blades? 2. Is the round raising wheel thing supposed to be as wonky as that? Surely not. Otherwise we'll done, you've taken something crap and old and made it useful in the world.
Thanks, Luke! After getting them de-rusted, and knowing the back story that they only ever met a board or two before my dad put these machines up, I realized they were still really nice and sharp. I got a few cuts on my knuckles while putting it all back together to prove it! Haha! And my dad is to blame for the wonky wheel, but since it didn’t affect the function, something in me just couldn’t remove the “character” he left behind haha!
Honestly good video though I cringed at the sandals, garages and tools call for closed toe shoes at the very least. Also safety glasses should have been warn during most of the tasks.
Bad advice. Folks, restoring the gear box is just as important, if not more, than anything else. Take it apart and make sure everything inside is on point and change the gasket and gear oil.

I like the way that you kept the original paint on it. Good job.
Thanks, David. I like the original look, plus - this was a “get it working, then put it to work” project. Haha! No beauty pageants for this one
Another fun video. I can't wait for you to get back to showing off your creativity on projects for your new home. Thanks for this video. Stay safe.

Aw, thanks Eddie! 🙌🏻
Might be a good idea to run some very fine sandpaper on the centrifugal switch inside the motor so they don't stick.
Congratulations! That is a boatload of work and you did it beautifully. I like the simple stand; I would not have thought of one like that.
Thanks, mark! It took a bit of trial and error to make it so the levering action didn’t split the base, but we got there haha
Fair play, nothing seems to daunt you, I greatly admire your diligence. What an accomplished restoration, congratulations!🙂
Thanks so much, Jules! This project really kicked my butt - but I’m pumped to have this in my shop!

Nice vid. That FJ60 rocks!!!!!!!!

Super good job! You rock!!!!
No, you do, Peter! 🙌🏻
Lovely restoration
👌amazing machine, good job 👏
Thanks, Miguel! It’s a beast!
Nice work.
nice restoration. But the base needs some kind of diagonal to stop the lateral movement.
It'll add a lot of stability.
Thank you for sharing this video. You are awesome!
I just got the same exact planer and was in great shape so I only cleaned it and fixed some minor issues.
You’re right about having to get used to that kind of power.😜
No, you are Herbert! 🙌🏻
This thing is such a tank, right?
Speaking of power what kind is it? 220?
Great Job Congratulations
Nicely done! Your making a very nice set of machinery💪😎
Thanks, Austin!
Great work as usual! and I love that land cruiser in the back
Thanks Logan!🙏🏼
Awesome video!!!
I wouldn't know how to assemble/calibrate it after cleaning it lol.
Haha! I didn’t either really - just learned as I went!
@@HonestWorkDesigns very cool! Given the condition of the planr I'm sure it was waaay cheaper than a new model with the same specs.
Great job....I do have the same and have been planning to give it a good service...will follow your video....Thanks for it
Thanks, Robert! Not pictured were later gearbox tweaks too - I don’t pretend to be an expert, but don’t hesitate to reach out if you run into any hurdles. Happy to help people learn from my mistakes haha!
Nice!!
Thanks, Robert! 🙌🏻
you where really playing with fire with the bolts in the sink
Good episode. I'm really impressed that you were able to get it all back together without a basket of unused parts. (that's my go-to move)
I wish I had a sink in my garage too.
Thanks, Ron! I have to admit - there are three small washers I’m pretty sure go on the casing, but I had left over after putting it all back together! Haha!
I would love to own a planner. Now I want to find one lol. Great video. Edited together perfect. You just got yourself another subscriber!
Thanks so much! I feel pretty lucky to have this hoss of a machine in my shop now! Just have to get used to this kind of power. Haha
very good job i have a identical one brand name king Canada does anyone know where to get parts I need some bushings cheers
Fantastic job! All of my tools were purchased used, so I very much identify with you. Also, new sub!
Thanks so much, Phil! Kindred spirits! The effort on old tools is real, but man do they run like champs!
@@HonestWorkDesigns Couldn't agree more!
I kept waiting for you to fix the off kilter height adjustment wheel.
Haha - I really thought about it. But my dad gave it that wobble (on accident) when he was using those tools - felt wrong (because it also doesn’t affect the function) to take that story away. Haha!

Nice refurbishing
So you cleaned it and flushed all the grease and heavy chemicals you used down the drain? Ok
