Does anyone have a contact that rebuilds or restores wood planers?

I have 2 Stanley planers. Picture of No. 5 attached.


Thanks,

Bruce

I collect and restore hand planes, specifically metal bodied Stanley’s like yours. I’m in West Lafayette.   

Happy to walk you through my process. There’s also a ton of information online and on YouTube.
