Just a heads-up: That Liberty Bell plane is scheduled to go into the shop, for a complete rebuild. Body work will include a "paint stripper", and a metal cleaner. Blade will be tuned up as well. That rear handle thingy will be replaced, with a wood tote. There will be a few pictures as I go along.
Stay tuned.......

The tote is off a stanley #5. Most any of the larger totes will work, #5-#8. I needed a long screw to fasten the tote in place. On these, the tote just screws right to the plane's body.

That turned out well and the tote looks good. I have a Liberty Bell Jointer that needs a tote or a repair hope to find a donor plane or a chunk of beach to repair with.
