Hi All, This old lady is, I think, a Type 5 (1911). She (sorry Gill/Alf!) has all original features and the original asphaltum finish, but a Matheson blade. Handles and sole show signs of use only, no serious knocks, dinges or pitting; . Thin shavings as a matter of course. Photos will be made available to serious contenders - anyone out there interested before I approach Ray Isles or, dare I say it, 'The Bay'?
I am selling as I am re-appraising how I work. As a long time lurker, I aspire to be more creative and therefore make/post more pieces. I am starting with a serious audit of my toolbox and 'old arn', intending to use funds raised by selective selling to fill gaps leading to my percieved direction of woodworking. This lovely old plane has seen limited use in the twenty years we have been together, but her replacement will, with luck, get a lot more use.

PS Record 148 dowelling jig in its original box? With original instructions? Bushes not out of the bags? Anyone?
