If you have questions about what the Stanley numbers are, you can
look the planes up on Blood&Gore:
http://www.supertool.com/StanleyBG/stan0.htm
Sometimes, emails to/from me are vectored to some cyber black
hole, never reaching their destination. I answer all emails, so if
you haven't heard from me, your/my email is likely having high tea
in said black hole, never to be heard from, so please try again.
Please email me prior to sending money so that you can be sure
the item is still up for grabs. Also, prices do not include shipping,
which is the amount that it takes to go from me to you via the US
Post Office.
This list goes out to many people, normally on the first of the
month (unless otherwise noted above). So, if you see something you
want, it's the quickest finger on the trigger that wins the duel.
Some folks become upset that they miss out on a tool. I wish I had
lots of this stuff many times over so I can satisfy the demand, but
that is normally not the case. Some of it does have duplicates here,
and if so, I will state that in my reply to you.
Also, due to the nature of selling over the wires, tools are sold
on a first come, first serve basis. The first person to say "I'll
take it", gets it. I have to operate this way as some will take a
few days to get back to me with their interest in a particular item,
and it's unfair to keep others waiting who are willing to buy the
item immediately.
I reserve the right to correct typographical errors after the list
goes out. I rarely make them, but when I do they can be major ones.
If you're the kind of person who puts a straightedge to the sole of
a #40, to check it for flatness, or who tosses a plane on a scale to
weigh it against what it states in the Stanley catalogs, you'll need
to take your business elsewhere. I'll wish you luck finding perfection
in something that was never made, nor intended to be, perfect. You guys
know who you are, and it's best for both of us that our paths not cross.
Remember, you don't have to be a connoisseur (did I spell that
correctly) to shop here. You can be a wirehead, a metalhead, a zipper-
head, a propellerhead, a deadhead, a cokehead, or even a knuckle
dragging oaf, just like me, to shop here, as long as your dinero is
green.
Thanks for shopping, and remember that no letters or words were
injured when writing this list...

saw little use, though is dusty from sitting in a working

can't get from the colorful big stores stocked with junk
from China; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t39.jpg $335.00

ST28 #140 combination rabbet block plane; skewed cutter allows
it to work any grain direction, the right side can be re-
moved to allow rabbet work; a solid design, in better than
usual cosmetic condition, the screw to accept the lever cap
is a good replacement; top left:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t49.jpg $130.00
ST29 #18 knuckle joint block plane; a better choice than the
#9 1/2 as the lever cap is more comfortable and with its
positive action it won't throw the cutter out of alignment
when snapped in place; a patch of rust on the heel of the
lever cap, otherwise cleaner than usual; top right:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t49.jpg $60.00

ST31 #5C corrugated jack plane; a very clean example that can
be honed and used as is, it's a WWII production with all
the Bailey features, hardwood knob and tote, the greater

features, it can be honed and used as is; guaranteed to
be a fine worker; right:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t50.jpg $115.00

models; bottom:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t51.jpg $45.00

a very popular design for bending teeth; bottom right:

ST46 #40 1/2 larger scrub plane; a rather ugly plane well suited

ST48 Gage No.5 jack plane; earlier model sans the "G" prefix in
the embossing, the patent date is embossed; a clean worker,
a design that doesn't get much recognition today, it was

old timers not know about working wood by hand that us
modern enlightened woodworkers do now; bottom:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t69.jpg $95.00
ST49 #610 pistol grip eggbeater drill; in poor cosmetic condition,

screw driver, all cutters, it can be used out of the box
after honing the cutters:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t89.jpg $290.00
ST52 #90 stuffed steel rabbet plane; a design gone awry, Stanley
likely offered this strange plane in reaction to what the
English were making, Stanley's attempt failed miserably,
they soon dropped the design for the metallic line of
cabinetmaker's rabbet planes; the deal breaker of the de-
sign is its mouth/throat as it jammed easily since there
isn't enough clearance for the shaving, nearly all have
been modified to work, this one no exception but done so
very little as most have mouths/throats of a gaping chasm;
overall fine, a worker, all original parts; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t90.jpg $115.00
ST53 #148 match plane; the costlier to manufacture #48 was

parts including the cracked and glued tote; will clean to
be a fine worker; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t91.jpg $175.00
ST55 #85 cabinet scraper; with rabbet mouth and tilting knob
and tote, it's designed to scrape adjacent to obstructions,
it's like the #10 1/2 of scrapers; in fine shape, can be
used as is after turning a burr on the blade, like most
examples, the blade isn't stamped with the Stanley name;
top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t94.jpg $445.00
ST56 Probably unused #71 router in the original box with in-
structions and hang tag; US made during the early 1960's,
it would be difficult to find a cleaner example; all the
features ever offered on the #71 are on this tool, the
cutters can be honed and used straight away; left:

WOOD PLANES
**** ******
WP1 Modern maker panel raiser done in the tradition of the 18th
century makers; made of yellow birch, with old style offset
tote pinned to the stock, it cuts a 1 3/4" panel of good
proportions; stamped with its make mark W.ECCLESTON/LIVING
IN/CANTERBURY, there's not another like it; will prove to
be a fine worker and at considerably less cost than a Chelor,
Nicholson, or any other "LIVING IN" or "IN" stamped plane;
top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t6.jpg
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t6a.jpg $195.00
WP2 7/8" reverse ogee and astragal by Bywater; a versatile
profile, the boxing forward of the cutter is MIA, that
can be sourced from a common bead; a worthy candidate for
restoration:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t22.jpg $85.00
WP3 5/8" double bead by J.Kellogg/Amherst; cuts a 5/8" diameter
bead either left or right, which is useful when the grain
changes or when you wish to bead both edges of the work; as
found, little used, with owner mark, an uncommon size:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t23.jpg $120.00
WP4 Odd large quirk ogee, bevel, and bead; looks to be a pro-
fessionally made plane, but the nose was docked; sized for
3/4" thick stock, it cuts 1 7/8" width; helper handle hole
at nose, with owner mark:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t24.jpg $120.00
WP5 7/8" quirk ogee and bead by Marples; very good proportions,
it saw little use, original surface, owner mark; a nice
plane:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t25.jpg $125.00
WP6 3/8" ogee by Evans; as found, never cleaned or abused, with
owner mark, it'll clean to be a fine worker; despite what
the image suggests, the profile is well defined:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t26.jpg $110.00
WP7 Narrow 1" quirk ovolo and fillet by S.Rowell/Troy; designed
to be part of an architrave, like below a mantel, it also
cuts 1" width; as found, an owner long ago shimmed the
fence, that's easy to remove; dry surface, an uncommon pro-
file:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t27.jpg $145.00
WP8 5/8" cove and astragal; late 18th century, 10" long, with
flat chamfers, it has early maker/owner initials of IJ,

portions, original inking still on toe, owner mark; never
cleaned:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t29.jpg $115.00
WP10 Odd bollection with a massive astragal that overpowers the
cove; by McVicar/Perth, double irons and wedges, it cuts
1 1/8" deep by 1 7/8" wide; owner mark, dark patina:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t30.jpg $145.00
WP11 3/4" cove and astragal; professionally made, but only with
initials; great size for modern stock thickness; a very
useful profile, dark patina, face of iron has some pitting
that will polish out as needed:

WP12 Another quirk ogee and astragal, this one flatter than the
previous; cuts 1/2" deep by 1 1/8" wide, it has good pro-
portions; by Greenslade, some bang marks on heel, owner
mark:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t32.jpg $120.00
WP13 5/8" (diameter) astragal; ca.1800 example with flat cham-
fers; well made, it has a southern New Hampshire look to
it:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t33.jpg $95.00
WP14 A barely used special purpose rabbet that cuts on the right
side, and with its fence, it's impossible for it to work
itself off the edge, like what can happen using a standard
rabbet; called a sash fillister, it can be used for many
rabbetting applications; by Greenslade, it's in remark-
able condition as most are oiled, greased, slimed, and
nearly beat to death, this is one to own if you want an
easy to use plane; nicker iron scores the grain before the
skewed cutter does its work; wedged arms allow it to work
wider stock; owner mark; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t34.jpg $155.00
WP15 #12 hollow and round pair by Varvill&Son/York; little used,
owner mark, sound workers; bottom two:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t34.jpg $85.00
WP16 Exotic wood 16" jack plane with laminated tote for greater
durability; the classic coastal New England shipwright's
pattern, its maker knew that tote damage was common, his
clever construction kept his perfect; a darker exotic, it
may be a denser mahogany, the tote and wedge look to be
mahogany; little used, fine mouth, 1 5/8" double iron by
Buck Bros.; this is a very nice plane; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t35.jpg $190.00
WP17 9 3/4" exotic wood smoothing plane; another shipwright's
product for his own use, the body is a darker species,
the wedge a different species, as is common; showing normal
signs of use, fit with a 1 7/8" Erik Anton Berg Swedish
steel double iron; bottom:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t35.jpg $90.00
WP18 Ohio Tool Co./New York adjustable sash plane; barely used,
boxwood screw arms and nuts to set the working width, it
cuts the standard square ovolo profile; the small slip of
wood, that catches the groove in the arm, fell out long
ago, that can be made in minutes; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t36.jpg
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t36a.jpg $95.00
WP19 Well made yellow birch 3/4" quirk ovolo; with a relieved
wedge and flat chamfers, it has a professionally made look
to it, but there are no maker/owner marks on it; good
patina, a nice example; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t45.jpg
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t45a.jpg $115.00
WP20 3/4" ogee by Nurse; a nice example, chunky stock as it was
probably the only blank on hand when the plane was made;
perfect for today's stock thickness, never altered or
abused, owner mark:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t46.jpg $120.00
WP21 1/2" square and cove by Mathieson; two cutters and wedges,
in sound shape, refinished some time ago, owner mark:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t47.jpg $175.00
WP22 Boxwood toted screw arm plough plane by Arrowmammett Works
of Middletown, CT; a well made plane, a bit longer than
standard, the fence is 11 1/2" long; never cleaned, good
patina, with some normal thread chips, there's a splinter
off the tote's horn, another at the toe of the fence (as
is very common); 100% a worker, I'll include a few irons
with it:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t70.jpg
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t70a.jpg $195.00
WP23 Splint making plane; owner made of mahogany, 1/4" thick
stock is pushed over it to make a splint of a length as
long as the wood pushed over it is; likely used for
baskets or woven chair seats, it's a simple thing, well
made, little used, and probably around 50 years old;
bottom left:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t76.jpg $85.00
WP24 Double iron Gothic bead for restoration; owner marks over
maker mark, one wedge sheared off at the mortice needs
replacing, some inactive worm holes, it's a solid plane

WP25 Toted 7/8" match planes by Thos.Appleton; the wooden version
of the popular #48 to cut tongue and groove joints, it works
the same widths as the metallic plane and does so at a lower
price; steel plated fences for greater accuracy and dura-
bility; owner initials; bottom two:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t79.jpg $95.00
WP26 I.Sleeper 1/2" bolection; out of the Inner Sanctum, I kept
some of the nicer Sleeper's I found during the restoration
of two early 19th houses; this is a very nice example, the
iron extends the full width from the fence so it can keep
cutting, which is handy when used as an element in more
complex profiles; free of modification, little used, a fine
example:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t80.jpg $235.00
WP27 Another ex Inner Sanctum I.Sleeper that cuts a 1/4" square
ovolo; little used, good patina, early C.C. owner mark,

WP29 Another ex Inner Sanctum I.Sleeper, this an uncommon pro-
file of adjacent hollow and round, it has little spring;
steeper pitch to the iron so it can work tenacious grain
woods, very lightly cleaned, face of iron pitted, a few
stain spots, ancient checks in heel:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t83.jpg $275.00
WP30 R.Barnes 1/2" quirk ovolo and astragal; with unusual box-
ing, Barnes worked in Orange, MA and supplied a small, but
growing market with planes; ex Inner Sanctum, complex pro-
files by this maker are quite uncommon; never cleaned, the
mouth/throat was very slightly opened, it's otherwise like
the day it was made:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t84.jpg $175.00
WP31 Edward Preston toothing plane; with the EP logo, Preston
was the Stanley of the UK, their broad output seems in-
finite, nearly all of it great quality; little used, owner

WP32 ECE moving fillister; looks unused, with steel stop and
fence that runs the length of the plane; circular spur
scores the grain prior to the cutter so that a crisp
shoulder results; well made; top right:

WP33 J.Searing 3/8" quirk ovolo and astragal; double boxed,
barely used, dry surface with some grime that can easily
be removed:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t86.jpg $125.00
WP34 E.Carter yellow birch beading plane; from the Inner Sanctum,
I kept this one for a long time as it's the plane that led
me to a descendant of his who has his accounting book of
tools and timbers from which I was able to locate one of
his working towns, Brimfield, MA, he seems never to have
stayed in one place for too long as he was skilled at
building meeting houses and often moved to the towns where
he was working; 10" long, relieved wedge, no owner mark,
never cleaned, apart from a splinter off the fence at the
heel, it's in remarkable condition for its age; a very un-
common mark from a notable architect and tradesman; bottom:

number, the parallel iron, by I.Sorby, is a good replacement
to form a fine mouth, it's narrower by about 1/8' than the

Diamond Point Driver with automatic feed, it's made by the

barely used condition, still with decal on the tote, it's
from the 1930's; minor storage grime, it will clean to be

common 3/16" that I added, the diameters range from 3/16"
to 1" in 1/16" increments; the 1/4" was MIA, I also added
a new old stock Stanley that's in its original wrapper; all
are ready to bore, such sets in this condition are uncommon;

MS101 Simonds 8" backsaw; barely used, most blueing remains on
the spine, some superficial rust formed on the blade, it
will clean nicely to reveal the etching, the back side is
much nicer; very fine teeth, best quality, Simonds was
America's best saw maker but ceased production due to the
carpenter's union boycott as they weren't a union shop;

MS110 Multi-tip screw driver by Young Mfg.Co. of Hartford, CT;
stamped patent applied for, it's identical to the Billings
design, it seems odd that this one could be filed for a
patent, perhaps it's the handle, which looks to be hard
rubber; in fine shape, tips are original widths, one is
selected, the other three folded back within the magazine,
which is then slid into the handle to use; bottom;

9/16", 5/8", 3/4", and 7/8"; very best quality, they can

diameter (duplicate widths); proper spoon bits that have
round shanks which a three jaw chuck can secure, they can
be filed with flats to fit a common two jaw chuck; good
age, as found, they are well worth the effort to use as
spoon bits are quite uncommon, I can't recall seeing a
group this numerous; two earlier spoon bits are included;

MS118 Stoddard's (or earlier Starrett) patent dividers with
extra long 12" telescoping legs; as found, with normal

MS119 Original box with hollow auger, the Millers Falls No.2;
early production with blue green box that has a label
on the end and top, both show some loss, the top with
more loss than the end; tool is complete, with some
cosmetic wear, it was used carefully and then returned
to the box after use, it's remarkable the box survived
as it took work to store the auger since the shaft has
to be unscrewed to store it; box bottom has some sepa-
ration, it's still structurally intact; the box is rarer
than the tool; right:

MS122 Lufkin catalogue No.11 featuring their standard line of
rules and tapes along with their machinist's tools that
were introduced a few years earlier; late 1920's issue,
it's in sound shape, minor tear at spine, and much less
common than their later catalogues; an interesting com-
parison of their product line versus Starrett, Lufkin
decided to go toe-to-toe with Starrett, but lost the
fight due to a TKO; bottom:

http://www.supertool.com/forsale/oct/t98.jpg $90.00
MS124 From the same patternmaker's chest, three bronze shaves
and a marking gauge that can reference straight and
curved edges; shaves with 1" cutters, each with different
shape soles - flat and curved - these shaves were like
extra fingers to patternmakers as they favored these for
finer work; gauge is likely by Phelps, it has a four lobe
point that's designed to be rotated as it wears, two lobes
are present with life left in them; top right group:

split nut screws, general tarnish on the logo (still read-
able) side, the back is much cleaner; minor roughness/loss
