The second plane was a Stanley #60 1/2 low angle block plane. I've been wanting one of these for a while. It's basically just like a normal block plane, but the low angle allows it to cut end grain, which is nice for flushing up the end of a board from time to time. It was also in good condition. All I did to get it ready was to clean it, oil the moving parts, wax the body, and sharpen the blade.
I also built a holder for this plane to go along with my other metal planes, I started by finding a piece of 3/4 inch thick stock and a couple of 1/2 inch thick pieces.
Then I cut the 3/4 inch piece down to about 1/8" wider than the sole of the plane.
I traced the shape of the front of the plane and sanded to my line on the disc sander.
Then I held up one of the 1/2" thick pieces that would form the sides of the holder and traced the shape of the front of the plane side onto it.
I cut it out on the bandsaw and then traced that shape onto the other side and cut it out. I also cut off some of the excess length from the 3/4" base piece of wood to form the bottom of the holder. This piece is sitting at the back of the plane in the picture below
Next I take the lever cap off and trace the tail end of the plane side onto the side. I repeat the procedure with some 1/8" thick oak scrap I had. This scrap of oak will hold the plane from falling out of the holder once it's vertical.
I cut out the oak pieces and stick them to the sides of the holder with glue and clamps
I also glue that bottom piece onto the base of the plane holder.
Once those are dry, it's time to glue the sides onto the base.
Then I drill and contersink a couple of holes through the base to hang the holder by and put a little linseed oil on it.
Here is the completed holder hanging with my other ones. It's the one on the top left.
