The Best Tools For Sale Anywhere!

There will be no May tool list.

From the bottom of the barrel to the top of the heap, thereis

perhaps the widestrange of tools I’ve offered on one of these

monthly lists. And,a new world record number of items for my list

has been reach withno fewer than 211 items, each specially chosen

for your viewingpleasure and a lifetime’s worth of use.

If you have questions about what theStanley numbers are, you can

look the planes upon Blood&Gore:

http://www.supertool.com/stanleybg/stan0.htm

If there is anything in particular thatyou're after, do ping

me as there is a lotof stuff here that isn't on the list; the

list just representsa snapshot of the previous month's haul with

none of the stuffhaving appeared on a previous list.

Please email me prior to sending moneyso that you can be sure

the tool is still upfor grabs. Also, prices do not include shipping,

which is the exactamount that it takes to go from me to you.

This list goes out to many people onthe first Monday of the month.

So, if you seesomething you want, it's the quickest finger on the

trigger that winsthe duel.

Also, due to the nature of selling overthe wires, tools are sold

on a first come,first serve basis. The first person to say "I'll

take it", getsit. I have to operate this way as some will take a

few days to get backto me with their interest in a particular item,

and it's unfair tokeep others waiting who are willing to buy immed-

iately.

I reserve the right to correcttypographical errors, after the

list goes out. Irarely make them, but when I do, they can be

major ones.

If you’re the kind of person who puts astraightedge to the sole

of a #40, to checkfor flatness, or who tosses a plane on a scale

to weigh it againstwhat it states in the Stanley catalogues, you’ll

need to take yourbusiness elsewhere. I’ll wish you luck finding

perfection insomething that was never made, nor intended to be,

perfect. You guysknow who you are, and it’s best for both of us

that our paths don’tcross.

Lastly, and I hate to have to mentionthis, but if you tell me

that money is on theway for something you want, and you never make

good on it, we won’tbe doing business in the future. It’s unfair,

actually downrightdiscourteous, to others who want the same thing,

and I tell them it’ssold. Pull this on me, and you’re exorcised

from the list.Sorry, but I don’t tolerate this behavior well at

all.

Don't forget the cool new tools thatI'm making - a jazzy layout

knife being used byprofessionals (made cover of Feb '98 FWW!); a

detachable blockplane handle designed to fit your 20 degree

block planes, andthe finest bench plane in production today, the

Bed Rock #601. Youcan see all this at:

http://www.supertool.com/newtools.htm

Finally, remember that you don't haveto be a connoisseur (did

I spell thatcorrectly?) to shop here. You can be a wirehead, a

metalhead, azipperhead, a propellerhead, a deadhead, a cokehead,

or even a knuckle-draggingoaf, just like me, to shop here, as

long as your dinerois green.

Thanks for shopping, and remember, noletters/words were injured

FEATURED TOOL OF THE MONTH

******** **** ** *** *****

FT1 The tool elf is photographed with something that

Iguarantee you’ll never see again, a set of 27

carvingchisels with unique bone carved handles;

eachhandle is a whimsical expression of the proud

maker,who likely used these to carve canes or

parasols,which have the same treatment on their

handlesand shafts; they are stored in a custom made

walnutbox that has three velvet lined trays;

American-made,dating to ca.1889 there are a mixture

ofmakers, from Addis to Buck Bros; simply an amazing

set thatcaptures the essence of what collecting

anyantique is all about:

nosesection; a very nice example in nearly brand

newcondition; 98% japanning, the bull nose section

originaltattered box, this one will blind you with

itsplating; left:

http://www.supertool.com/forsale/t110.jpg $185.00

ST54 #289 skewed rabbet plane; thisplane is in brand

newcondition, with all original parts stored in

theoriginal tattered box; the best model as it

has thethree lobe spurs, which are interchangeable

withthose of the #78; they simply do not come any

cleaner;right:

http://www.supertool.com/forsale/t110.jpg $585.00

ST55 #4 1/2H oversized smoothing plane;embossed with the

modelnumber, this is not some WWII casting that is

beingpassed off as that model; a clean example with

95%japanning, it was used with care, it has all

originalparts, including the short iron; a plane

designedto ‘compete’ with the infill market in the

UK, itcouldn’t even get out of the starting blocks

in thatrace and become a poor seller; top:
