Kind Words

“Thank you Gordon for the amazing job you did restoring the broken tote on my grandfather's Stanley No. 5-1/2 hand plane. Your work is absolutely amazing, this is something that I will cherish and look forward to passing down for many generations to come.”

“Gordon, I just received the tote and knob for my Stanley No. 51 shoot plane. What can I say, you took what I was a lost cause and made it look AMAZING. Thank you so much for all that you do.”

WilliamRedding, CA

“WOW! Never in a million years did I think that the tote and knob that I sent to you were salvageable, but once again you demonstrated your amazing ability. I can't thank you enough, these items are already on the plane and looking fantastic. I can't wait to present this to my father for his 85th birthday!”
