Hi

possible if it's Stanley a no 164 low angle plane from 1926- 1943 , 9" in length with a 2" cutter with a skewed mouth or a no 64 butchers block plane , my thoughts are it's more likely to be the 164.hc

ps any markings on it at all :?:

Hi Arminusrex

Hi Graham nice to hear from you again , I'm not a collector each one of my planes are to be used as and when i need them i just like to have a full set of them as each one has it's own use . only need the one's that you know about and I'll have my set then , well the one that i can afford that is and then that only leaves the Stanley no 1 , 2 & 8 but there no way will i pay those over inflated prices for them .hc

It's neither of those - compare it with the piccies on B&G.

Can we have a link to the auction?

This picture is hosted on eBay, so I assume this plane is for sale.

Hi,

It won't make much, unless a couple of idiots start outbiding each other!

Scraper plane?

What's this all about then? The plane just linked to doesn't look like a scraper plane to me. The blade leans back at a normal angle, whereas scraper planes have the blade leaning forwards. It doesn't look like a scrub plane either - it's got a very small, un-beefy blade.
Is it some sort of early approach to a replacement blade plane?

Dear Lord - I assumed the first one was missing its blade, but it HAS a blade - horrible nasty thing, folded over to meet the depth adjust.

Not nice.

Hi BB

It looks like the blade is under that folded metal part if you Ctrl + in on the pics you can just see another piece of metal. I recon the lateral leaver pivots on the "cap iron" and moves the blade with the lower pin, how the hell the blade is held securely is any ones guess. if it was 99p I might have bid on it, but £27.50 and £4.80 postage!

Come on now everyone - don't hold back - there's another chance to get one of these special planes unspoilt by that oversize blade and heavy castings so many other designers chose...
