If you have questions about what the Stanley numbers are, you can
look the planes up on Blood&Gore:

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...
FEATURED TOOL OF THE MONTH
******** **** ** *** *****
FT1 Barely used Tucker universal vise as made by Lee Valley;
a modern take on the timeless Emmert patternmaker's vise,
this one is complete, little used, and shows some minor
cosmetic wear; original allen wrench is present, but sat
out the photo session, there's nothing this vise can't
keep still while you butcher whatever is between its jaws;
can't ship this one, but can get it to northern midwest
states:

the lever cap, it's much nicer than what's normally found;

WOOD PLANES

WP1 3/8" center bead; double boxed, it can stick a bead anywhere
on the work's surface; uncommon left side throat suits it
well for lefties, it's manufactured but with no maker mark;
top left:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t4.jpg
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t4a.jpg $70.00
WP2 1/8" bead; fully boxed, the entire working sole is boxwood,
it's by notable Boston maker, T.Tileston; barely used, a
great size for cabinetwork, it's the narrowest diameter of
the standard set; owner mark over maker's name; top right:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t4.jpg $85.00
WP3 1/2" cove by C.Warren/Nashua; cut a quarter hollow, a common
element in classic work, it saw little use, the original
pencil marking is on the heel; same owner mark as previous,

http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t4.jpg
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t4b.jpg $65.00

has a professional look to it, early initials (quite weak)
are stamped where maker mark normally is; 9 5/8" long, flat
chamfers, owner mark, wedge is ash or hickory and looks to
have been in it for centuries; dusty, it's sized for 1/2"
or thicker stock; overall a nice plane, with common hang
hole at toe, a common thing to hang it above the bench;
image failed to capture the profile well; bottom right:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t4.jpg
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t4c.jpg $115.00
WP5 3/8" match planes by Varvill&Son; barely used, the tongue
plane has the rabbet throat so shavings can be ejected on

tongue and groove joint is needed; top right:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t6.jpg $90.00
WP6 Lamb&Brownell/New Bedford moving fillister; a short-lived
partnership, Lamb made some of the best planes of any, this
one was used once or twice and put away; designed to cut a
rabbet in any grain direction, the dovetailed nicker iron
scores the grain for a crisp shoulder, the skewed iron
allows working any grain direction; adjustable fence to
set the working width, it has a clever feature of brass
bushings around the screws so that there's greater bearing
on the plating to keep the fence from moving during use;
owner mark, a couple small nail holes when a stop was added,
it can be honed and used as is; top left:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t7.jpg $135.00

iron; flat chamfers, slight radius to the sole, it has a
unique maker/owner mark of Levi Peirce stamped over an

WP9 Very clean and ready to use toted screw arm plough plane
by Hicks; with six irons, it saw barely any use and was

WP10 A.Fish/Lowell 3/4" edging plane that is an exaggerated
reverse ogee, it resembles more of the classic thumbnail

table edges and similar; top:

http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t15a.jpg $90.00
WP11 3/16" dado by John M.Taber of New Bedford; a very uncommon
width, still as straight as the day it was made, little
used, and never messed with; bottom:

heels; top left two:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t16.jpg $90.00
WP13 Steel plated V-grooving plane with squirrel tail grip; an
unusual configuration, likely made by a coachmaker, it looks
to be made of a fine grain mahogany; well made, rabbet
throat, it cuts a shallow V anywhere on the face of the work,
it can add an accent to a tongue and groove joint where it
follows the line of the joint; bottom:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t16.jpg $80.00
WP14 Clark&Williams beech smoothing plane; earlier production
with 2003 year, it may have been used once and put away;
I don't believe the new company offers these anymore; a
finely made and faithful copy of early bench planes; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t38.jpg
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t38a.jpg $585.00
WP15 Good panel raiser with the classic lines of 18th and early
19th examples; jack size, it cuts the bevel and the fillet
simultaneously of a 1 1/2" width; slender and comfortable
tote, never altered, it was used a couple times and put
away; stamped with early-ish initials of N.P.F, it has a
harmless and very shallow splinter off the bottom of the
fence; one of the nicest I've offered, a great worker for
those wanting period details on their work; top:

http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t39a.jpg $290.00
WP16 22 1/2" jointer made of a dense and dark exotic wood; not
the usual shipwright's pattern, but a standard joiner's
pattern; fit with a 2 1/4" wide double iron by Moulson,
the closed tote is beech; in solid worker shape, the nose
has likely been docked long ago, that has no bearing on
its use; a solid plane that will make whatever is under
it cower in fear; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t40.jpg $145.00
WP17 Early yellow birch compass plane with original iron that's
embossed "ROBERT MOORE"; curved gently from toe to heel,

has a professionally made look to it, but no maker or
owner marks; bottom left:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t45.jpg $125.00
WP18 9" exotic wood smoothing plane; likely a shipwright's
effort, the tapered body looks to be mahogany, the wedge
rosewood; showing normal signs of use, tight and stable
check at the cheek, it has a thick Sandusky Tool Co.
laminated steel iron; a sound worker; bottom right:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t45.jpg $75.00

horn grip at the toe, it's a bit longer than the standard

both are in as found shape and saw little use; 5 3/8" with
a 1 1/2" wide single iron, some scratching in the sole,
it's a good length for working around knots or grain
changes; and a Marples 7 3/4" with 2" double iron, decal
remnants on the cheek, it also has some scratches in the
sole; top two:

able, a strange one:

of Atkinson Maserick & Co. of Boston; a well made design
that proved very popular in England, it features a pump
action to deliver the oil down the long and curved spout;

good reach that comes in handy when oiling the frog screws
of your bench planes; bottom:

MS77 16" sweep brace by Peck, Stow & Wilcox; a very uncommon
size for the most powerful boring and/or rugged jobs; in
fully function, typical cosmetic condition with wear that

China, you start that with this; left:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t53.jpg $145.00
MS78 6" sweep brace by Millers Falls; cleaner than usual with
good amount of original finish, full ratchet, exotic wood

MS80 Sargent No.710 Auto-Set smoothing plane; the company's
version of a plane that can maintain its set when the
iron is honed, this design pre-dates Stanley's acquisition
of the Gage line, Sargent likely forced Stanley's hand
to purchase Gage as they didn't want to lose market share;
a well designed plane, it saw little use, though the knob
has been replaced, if that matters, one from a standard
Sargent bench plane can be used; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t54.jpg $95.00
MS81 Union X4C corrugated smoothing plane; a clean and damage
free example in better than usual condition, the knob is
a replacement, sourcing a replacement will make it a more
perfect union; bottom:

MS82 Pair of different spoke shaves; a Dixie (not from Dixie,
but Worcester) and Tuell's; both in sound shape, the former
has a curved sole (toe to heel) and features a cap iron;
the latter has a double edge cutter that allows it to
function on the push and pull stroke, it features a 'sole'
that can be set for fine or coarse worker, it toggles via

work along one edge and coarse work along the other; top

MS92 3" (hair narrower) slick by T.H.Witherby; a fine as found

have been made when the company was in Millbury, MA; bottom:

both sides; in fine shape, most are unmarked, as is this
one, they were manufactured mostly in England with some
rare ones by US makers; even patina, inlaid brass 'pins'
to reduce wear from divider points at commonly used areas;
free of damage, as straight as the day it was made, a lot

iron; a nice example of a plane that resembles the #13
offered by Bailey and Stanley; most japanning remains, it
never had the embossed brass plate soldered on it; a lot

suits it well for working irregular curvatures; top:

with quirk ogee and astragal detail worked at the end of

scratched his name in on leg; bottom left:

mortice; old replacement handle with steel ring; middle:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t76.jpg $70.00
MS108 Unused 1 1/2" framing chisel by Buck Bros.; this is what
you favorite framing chisel once looked like before it was
sentenced for life in a drywall bucket until you sprung it
from that captivity; with original ash handle that has
the stag head logo stamped in it, the only apology is the
steel ring fell off long ago; some trivial storage tarnish,
best quality; bottom:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t76.jpg $135.00
MS109 T.J.McMaster&Co. marking gauge; a simple thing that most
would overlook, a keen eye spotted his arched mark stamped
in the face of the fence above the arm, his Auburn, NY
location below the arm; made of beech, the pin is there,
and will still mark, if you plan to use it you'll likely
want to replace it; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t77.jpg $115.00
MS110 Pliers action punch with three dies by Luckhaus&Gunther;
with a wrench that is threaded into the last die stored

opens the jaws when pressure is released; a clever and
well made tool; middle:

MS111 Pair of manufactured cast iron T-rabbets; advertised in
Hammacher-Schlemmer catalogues, they were offered to

MS112 Different longer frame hacksaw that features spring steel
'clips' on both sides along the top of the frame to hold

MS113 10" precision square by Star Tool Co.; graduated blade
on both sides, clearly stamped with the star logo, the

company known more for its bevels of the Howard Patent;

MS115 Sheffield plated brace; the most popular pattern while
iron braces were maturing, it's a simple design with a
push button at the chuck to secure the bits, commonly
center, nosing, shell, spoon, and reamer patterns; in
sound, as found condition, by W.Greaves&Son, the lignum
head looks to be in sound shape; a worker that will
clean well; top:

MS117 Jarrett's patent nail pulling hammer; proving that no idea
is too dump to patent is timeless, this one was patented
April 29, 1941; with a length of mini 'claws' that connect
the standard claw to the socket via welds, these offer
different leverage as the nail is extracted; original
handle, usual hammer cosmetic condition, a later screw
is in the handle where it pops through the eye; Jarrett
was a Canadian, perhaps the cold there impacted his brain
a bit as they didn't sell well; bottom:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t79.jpg $95.00

as a standard lunchbox, it's loaded with the tools of the
trade including a very nice telescoping peg wrench that is
is stamped H&S Co., a rosewood London pattern handle screw
driver with interchangeable bits, a very strange special
purpose rosewood handle tool, a double end peg wrench, and
all sorts of smaller tools, some of which the owner made
long ago; interior has two 'leaves' that are hinged to
reveal storage compartments, one is loose as the screws
stripped; much nicer than what's normally found, some of
the tools look to be pre-1900:

MS124 1920's roll of miniature tools used as charms on pins or
fobs; difficult to see them in the image as the tools and
roll are a dark color, all six are present - a file,
hatchet, two hammers, wrench, and chisel - they are
mechanic's, not woodworker's tool; in fine shape, a stroke
of luck kept them together; top:

MS125 Book, "Knots And Splices" by Captain Jutsum of Cardiff,
Wales; 1907 4th edition, it's printed in color to make it
clearer when tying; 70 pages, in sound condition, as ex-
pected it's heavy on nautical knots; a popular book, with
many reprints, penciled on a page is its owner in 1910,
Helen Peabody, I wonder if she ever married or opted to
make a career as a prison guard; if the latter, and the
Beatles knew of her, it's probable Rita would have been
meter maiding in complete anonymity; bottom left:

http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t89.jpg $365.00
MS133 Clean and barely used H.&D. Co./Chicago tail docker with
rosewood grip, an odd choice of wood for such a chore;
well made, it will compliment a collection of veterinary
tools, can be be used as intended, or can be used to chop
thinner material, like rush/cane for chair seats, basket
splints, vermicelli, etc.; bottom:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t90.jpg $110.00
MS134 Shepherd Tool Co. dovetailed rosewood stuffed smoothing
plane; a short-lived Canadian company that couldn't make
good on their promises, a lot of customers were left out
of money with no product delivered, which is a shame as
the plane is fine quality and true to the original infills
popularized by Spiers, Norris, et al.; used a few times,
some storage grime and minor rust areas, it will quickly
clean or can be used as is after a honing; top:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t91.jpg $485.00
MS135 6" Millers Falls cast iron plumb and level; an uncommon
product that was prone to damage as the plumb vials,
located at each end, had nothing to protect them from
being struck and cracked, this one escaped that; a good
example that saw normal use; bottom:
http://www.supertool.com/forsale/sep/t91.jpg $245.00
MS136 'Komplete' Koeth's Kombination Kit in its original wooden
case; manufactured by Currier-Koeth (why Currier wasn't
spelled with a "K" is a mystery forever lost in time) of
Coudersport, PA (another one that should have been spelled
with a "K", perhaps the townspeople were worried too many
K's might associate them with a nasty organization of the
era even though there are three K's on the label ), it's
made for mechanics, motorists, farmers, or handy men, it
has six pairs of interchangeable jaws to perform a variety
of work; a fairly popular design, when found it's normally
missing most of the parts; barely used, well made, and a
'kool' tool; top:

MS139 Three carving gouges by Addis; an 5/8" No.3 (or 5 as the
number is difficult to read), a 7/8" No.7, and a 1 1/4"

one checked, the widest with some very shallow and local-
ized spots of pitting that will polish easily; bottom
