    Primitive Marking gauge ?

    Interesting suggestions, particularly the cooperage, although I cant imagine those teeth cutting into anything. Possibly not used for wood but another 'softer' material.....

    unusual Bailey transitional plane ?

    £5 is a bargain. They're generally not highly desirable among collectors although this one is gaining some interest and bids on Ebad. From research, I think the early Bailey ones are a bit rare.

    unusual Bailey transitional plane ?

    Yes after some research I'm agreeing the brass was probably owner modified. Looks almost period though and is quite well done (apart from the un clocked screws !) And yes it planes quite nicely. I lapped the sole a bit but it could do with some time spending on it. Has a sweethart blade. I have...

    decent hand plane wanted /recommendations

    Agree with the above. A well restored, or just good condition, vintage Stanley or Record is often much better than a new off the shelf plane (unless of course you spend alot of dollar on a Le Nielsen etc) Also there's an infinite supply of spares and blades for these older planes. If you drop or...

    unusual Bailey transitional plane ?

    Yes I agree alot of wooden planes were possibly self made but these Stanley Bailey transitional planes are from the Stanley maker https://www.timetestedtools.net/2019/02/19/roger-k-smiths-stanley-transitional-type-study/

    unusual Bailey transitional plane ?

    Not seen any of these with a brass sole before ? The 'Superior Works' site which is very comprehensive doesn't mention anything either. I guess could have been added by a user.....

    What to put on garage workshop worktops?

    I've been using Valchromat on recent projects. It's basically a very high quality MDF that comes in different colours. Really nice to work with. More difficult to source though, Wickes etc definately wouldn't have it https://www.nationalmdf.co.uk/product/valchromat-mdf-full-size-board/

    back to woodworking

    There shouldn't be too many defects / plugs in the higher BB grades of plywood although I guess it's near impossible to get one full side completely free. I had a big problem though in working with offcuts....... If they all come from the same 'batch' of sheets it's fine but different batches...

    back to woodworking

    There's a CNC operation on a nearby industrial estate that makes ply furniture etc. They generate alot of offcuts which I'm able to buy at a very fair price. I've never bought full sheets from a supplier but looking at prices, an 8x4ft sheet of 15mm works out around £160
