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 propeller-
head, 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
******** **** ** *** *****
A very decorative owner made 26 1/2" level; with lots
of geometric inlay, and some white stuff added as
detail, the maker's initials are scratched into the
white stuff; made of mahogany, it's fully brass bound;
lightly cleaned, the level vial is broken, that's very
easy to remedy; the geometric inlay is located at each
end and on both sides; a unique tool that captures its
maker's vision of design, it has so much more visual
appeal than the standard exotic wood level that looks
more like a cricket bat than a tool, owner made tools
often are very well done and with more heart and soul
than mass produced tools:

WWII, minor grime, a fine worker; top:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t51.jpg $130.00
ST37 Six #40 Everlasting pattern bevel edge chisels in their
original plastic roll; the company's best quality chisel,

placed the former wooden handles; all look to be unused,
widths of 1/4", 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1 1/4", and 1 1/2"; all

quality; looks unused; bottom right:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t52.jpg $45.00
ST42 #45 combination plane; a worker that saw normal use, free of
damage, and complete (I found it with no short arms, those
will be with it as I have a nearly bottomless pit of #45
parts); later production with fine adjust fence and locking
screw, it's the most desirable vintage of the best selling
combination plane ever made:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t53.jpg $225.00
ST43 #2 smoothing plane; little used with full length iron, it
sat for decades and developed a dark patina; early 1900's

https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t56.jpg $115.00
ST46 2" #20 Everlasting chisel; a hair narrower, this one came
from an estate of a woodworker who worked at Stanley, it
may be a second; 12 1/2" length, a very tight and harmless
check in the handle, it's a sound, as found, worker; bottom:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t58.jpg $90.00
ST47 #4C corrugated smoothing plane; little used, in the original
box, it dates ca.1950 and works as well as any; right:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t64.jpg $110.00
ST48 Probably new old stock #923 10" sweep brace; Stanley's best
selling premium line brace, it has all the fine features
added to braces - full ratchet, spring jaws, ball bearing
head, cocobolo head and grip, durable plating; some minor
cosmetic wear from storage; ready to go; right:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t65.jpg $90.00
ST49 #71 bronze rabbet spoke shave; one of the few bronze tools
Stanley offered, this one never sold well as it competed with
the cast iron #68, which never had a fence like the #71 did;
like most #71's, the fence parted company long ago; good
patina, a sound worker; top left:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t66.jpg $90.00
ST50 Three worker spoke shaves; a #68 rabbet spoke shave that
missed the photo session (may have been chased away by a dog
of a #193 fiberboard plane), a #53 adjustable mouth shave,
and a #51 shave; all sound workers with original parts; top
three (only two photographed):
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t66.jpg $110.00
ST51 #1 smoothing plane; as found ca.1930 model with "STANLEY"
embossed lever cap and sweetheart iron, it's in need of a
cleaning; all original parts, a bit of roughness at one
side of the mouth (at the bed), that may be original as
some #1's were fairly sloppy during this era, they slipped
by the inspectors (who may have had one too many during
lunchtime); still a respectable example that's priced far
less than a pristine example; bottom:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t67.jpg
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t67a.jpg $1085.00
ST52 150th anniversary dovetail saw in its original box; unlike
most of these tools that never saw use, this one did and
shows cosmetic wear; box is fine; top:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t69.jpg $50.00
ST53 #607 Bed Rock jointer; a good, as found worker with "BED
ROCK" embossed lever cap, V-logo cutter, normal grime that
will clean, it will make a perfect worker; top:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t73.jpg $235.00
ST54 Pair of #20 Everlasting chisels; both workers, widths of
1/4" and 3/4", the latter stamped with OVB logo of the
retailer that Stanley made for them; top two:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t82.jpg $80.00
ST55 Graduated set of ten #720 bevel edge paring chisels; a good
working set that was owned by an employee of Stanley, they
have an even patina, the original leather tip handles show
finish loss; each in sound worker shape, widths of 1/4",
3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 3/4", 7/8", 1", 1 1/4", 1 1/2", and 2";
bottom pile:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t82.jpg $435.00
ST56 Long #2 smoothing plane in the original box; the only pro-
duction that has "BAILEY" embossed on the main casting, it
also is a bit longer than previous productions, the plane
may have been used once or twice; box is solid, with no
tape, it has some minor grime on the top; long #2's are
much less common than the earlier ones, those in the box
especially so, it's ready for a fine collection of Stanley
tools:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t84.jpg $655.00
ST57 Reproduction from an original 1920s Stanley Bailey Plane
poster; likely the lone survivor, it was found in 2015 after
spending decades hidden behind a shelf in a Wisconsin base-
ment; printed on a Heidelberg offset printer, using hand-
mixed inks and the highest possible paper stock, it's 19"
by 28", signed and numbered by the fellow who reproduced
it, US shipping postage is included in the price:

WOOD PLANES
**** ******
WP1 A fine solid rosewood plough plane with four white tips;
barely used, it has no maker name, but is probably an
earlier Ohio Tool Co. that was made for a retailer; great
grain pattern to the body (not too visible in the images)
and the fence, an owner inlaid a small circular dot of an-
other exotic wood as his mark; right side shows some grime
from sitting, it will clean very well; way, way nicer than
what's normally found:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t1.jpg
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t1a.jpg $685.00
WP2 Lignum vitae smoothing plane; a solid worker with a harm-
less shallow check at the top of the body (lignum tends to
do this), the sole and mouth are fine; nice contrasting
grain, lots of mass, it can be honed and used as is; top
right:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t8.jpg $115.00
WP3 Boxwood toted screw arm plough plane by Greenfield Tool Co.;
as found, with good patina, it's a solid worker with the
common minor checks that boxwood often shows; minor thread
chips, the wedge sits low in its mortice, it likely was
planed a bit on its backside to accommodate a thicker iron,
none of this hinders the plane's use; can be used as is
after honing the iron:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t14.jpg
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t14a.jpg $165.00
WP4 1/4" double bead by J.Kellogg/Amherst; the undisputed
heavyweight champion of double bead planes, I find more
by this maker than any other; a great size for cabinet and
architectural work, it cuts left and right, which is handy
when tearout occurs and for sticking the bead on either
edge; as found, dirty, little used, owner mark, it will
clean well to make a fine worker; top:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t21.jpg $110.00
WP5 Greenfield Tool Co. #10 hollow and round pair, the iron
widths are 5/8"; little used, found with previous and also
in need of a clean, owner mark, will make sound workers;
bottom left two:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t21.jpg $75.00
WP6 1 1/2" skew rabbet by Varvill&Sons, a major York, England
maker; little used, found with previous and in need of a
clean, free of modification; bottom right:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t21.jpg $50.00
WP7 A great and unique set of six ca.1800 molding planes with
classic 18th century features including relieved wedges that
return back onto (or nearly so) the irons; in a longtime
collection, they were found near White River Junction, VT
last century, they no doubt traveled too far from their
origin; maybe used once or twice, or not at all, each with
broad flat chamfers, they are of a professional quality
but with no maker or owner marks; made of beech, 9 1/2"
long, they represent perfectly the transition from the
unique styles of regional makers to standardization, whom-
ever made these knew that the 9 1/2" length was becoming
the standard but begrudgingly refused to surrender his
style by featuring it for as long as possible:

WP8 Union Factory/H.Chapin single iron sash plane; cuts both the
square ovolo and rabbet simultaneously, it's the easiest sash
plane to use; free of modification, with owner mark, dark
patina:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t23.jpg $95.00
WP9 E.Clark/Middleboro hollow; a fine example that was never
modified, clear stamp, 9 5/8" yellow birch body has a deep
patina, early owner mark; bottom:

https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t40a.jpg $385.00
WP10 3/8" dado by Varvill&Sons; clean, all it needs is a honing;
owner mark; bottom left:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t41.jpg $75.00
WP11 Alex Mathieson/Dundee double iron 1" quirk ogee and bead;
good proportions, free of alteration, cleaned, owner marks,
harmless small chip at heel of boxing, as is very common;
top:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t48.jpg
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t48a.jpg $115.00
WP12 Kendall/Baltimore 5/8" quirk ovolo and astragal; out of a
working shop, still with shavings in the throat, it has
good proportions and is a sound worker, a harmless bruise
to the boxing at the heel suggests wear, but it's not:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t59.jpg $115.00
WP13 I.Long (Hopkinton, NH) 3/4" ogee; a ca.1800 plane by an un-
common maker, it's in fine worker shape, free of modi-
fication, and the perfect size for today's standard stock
thickness; owner mark that is partially over the maker
mark, the latter is entirely readable:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t60.jpg $185.00
WP14 J.&L.Denison/Saybrook 5/8" (stamped 1/2", but that's an
error) quirk ogee; good proportions, as found, never cleaned,
with owner mark:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t61.jpg $110.00
WP15 Clean toothing plane retailed by A.J.Wilkinson&Co./Boston,
one of the premier retailers prior to WWI; likely made by
A.Heald, of Milford, NH, most of the wooden planes re-
tailed by the firm were supplied by Heald; in fine, little
used condition, good proportions as most are rather bulky,
with owner mark; top left:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t62.jpg $70.00
WP16 Nice 12 1/2" ca.1800 sash plane with shapely vertical grain
yellow birch tote, chamfered wedge, round chamfers on the
beech body, and curved iron that many early toted planes
have as if they made the plane and forgot to account for
the iron; cuts the classic square ovolo, the incuse stamp
of S.READ where the maker mark normally is; a fine worker
or one for a collection, it survived centuries very well:

https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t74b.jpg $155.00
WP17 Toted pair of 7/8" match planes by P.A.Gladwin; the same
size as the Stanley #48, the pair cuts the tongue and
groove joint on 3/4" to 1" thick stock; steel plated
fences for accuracy and longer wear, they are as found,
free of damage, and will benefit from a clean; owner
initials; bottom two:
https://www.supertool.com/forsale/dec/t74.jpg $90.00
WP18 7/8" quirk ovolo, cove and astragal by W.Williams/Warrented;
as found, never cleaned or altered, with decades of grime,
the boxing is loose, but all there, a crack in that behind

WP19 Late 18th century 3/4" cove and astragal; with an early
maker mark of Morrill, it doesn't match any in AWP, there
may be an initial, but I can't make that out; 10" long,
with broad flat chamfers, it has a Sleeper like wedge, but
not as large as Sleeper's; likely a New Hampshire plane as
Morrill is an early NH surname; very well made, little used,
it also has several owner stamps of J.Hawes; a nice plane;

WP21 3/8" thumbnail by Mutter (early mark) Oxford/Street; a good
size for treating the edges of lids for smaller chests or
tables, it's been cleaned and refinished; out of a high end
cabinetshop, shavings still in the mouth; an uncommon size
for this profile, some bang marks on the heel:

WP22 1/4" quirk ovolo and astragal by Brown&Barnard, an English
maker that sent a lot of planes to New England; stamped in
the heel as 5/8", that's an error, the original inking on
heel corrects that; a very uncommon size for a profile that
has a lot going on, it's in fine shape, noting a couple nicks
in the boxing, the iron has been ground, this came out of a
working shop; refinished, a very nice plane:

WP23 Odd 1/2" cove and thumbnail by Greenfield Tool Co.; barely
used, as close to new condition as a nearly 150 year old

wide by 1/2" deep:

MS3 Three plated sash templates; used to cope joining sash pieces,
these are a finer quality than most, one is a general purpose
miter template that can be used on any profile, it's a two
piece construction with brass plating on both reference faces;

also have brass plating for more accurate use; top three:

shape; bottom:

MS8 Three smaller saws; two with turned handles and brass backs,
they resemble the Disston patternmaker's saw, both have very
fine teeth and are sharp enough to use as is, blade lengths
of 5 1/2" and 8", the latter has some harmless pit areas;
the third a small finely shaped open handle example with
riveted domed studs, 6 1/2" blade, good age, it's likely
from an earlier child's toolchest; top three:

beech, the adjustable fence can be positioned up to 18"

MS29 Rice's Patent slitting gauge in rosewood; a creative design
that's well executed, it features a circular cutting disk

similar to that of a bench plane; as found, in need of a
clean, the short grain at the toe of the grip split and
was repaired (it can be made better), the brass bit that
the fence screw bears on is missing, that's easy to make;
sounds like a dog, but it's far from that as it can

material rather than opened/closed to do the cutting (which
can be done, if you choose); wants a sharpening; bottom:

loose, peening/shimming the tang will remedy that; some
label remnants on one handle; top:

MS76 7/8" corner chisel by G.Mix&Co, their No.1 Ex best quality,
it's in little used condition and with a replaced laminated
handle that has a leather washer to absorb mallet blows;
clean, all it needs is a honing; Mix was a quality maker,
I believe that firm was absorbed by Peck, Stow & Wilcox;

MS79 Very clean Millers Falls No.980 two-speed eggbeater drill;

has longer grips than the No.2; an uncommon model with a
three jaw chuck; top:

MS80 Perfect Handle ball peen hammer; as found, far from a dog,
it will clean well or can be left as is since whatever it's
hitting doesn't care whether it's clean or dirty; one of
many tools by H.D.Smith that feature wooden grips riveted
onto a forging; bottom:

for shaping curved shapes, originally they were used in the
shoemaking trade to work wooden lasts (patterns for the
shoes); various sweeps, some duplication, the cutters have
been repeatedly sharpened, which is typical, they still
have plenty of life left in them; bottom pile:

3/4", 7/8", 1", 1 1/4", 1 1/2", 1 3/4", and 2"; normal
tarnish from sitting, that can be left alone or cleaned;

a major producer of fine steel, these are no exception:

MS96 Clean and barely used Simonds No.61 26" 10pt crosscut; with
apple handle, most of the glazing is present, the poor
image doesn't show that well, it's sharp enough to use as
is; oddly, the plate is stamped 5 1/2, it appears the plate
is full width and wasn't re-toothed; Simonds made the best
saws in America, their production ceased prior to WWII as
their wares were boycotted since they weren't a union shop;

workers:

MS99 Roneo pencil sharpener; made ca.WWI, it clamps on a table
or counter, a spring action holder feeds the pencil into
the helical cutter that turns as the handle is cranked; as
found, with normal grime, it has its original drawer to
catch the shavings; most of the decal is present, it's
thirsty for a couple drops of oil to make it run smoother;
like the endless ideas for better mousetraps, there was an
explosion of ideas to point a pencil:

MS100 Midland jump spark cigar/cigarette lighter; offered in as
found condition, the person I bought it from told me it
works, it just needs dry cells to power it; last patent
of January 20, 1920, it was made Davenport, IA; found in
countless gin joints, underworld gambling parlors, and
any place where cigars were routinely smoked, it's a
clever device for lighting a stogie, more useful than
a match, which often burns out prior to lighting the
cigar; free of damage, most of the original finishes
remain, that on the wood shows some flaking; a cool
thing, it has an old cast iron snuffer that was found
with it:
