The obsession continues

I just got these planes


This unknown spoke plane. The only marking I can find on it is a capital B in he casting of the inside of one of the handles. Whist being of a unknown type it came razor sharp and generates wonderful shavings. Any one got an idea?






A Stanley no #3C:





And a later model (around 75 I guess) Stanley no 71. I only have to figure out how to use it to produce good dados and recesses for hardware.

The spokeshave looks like a Stanley 65 chamfer shave or a clone. Read about it here.

 

[Derek Cohen (Perth Oz)]

It is a Stanley #65 campher shave (I have one). Useful for camphering on inside curves where a block plane will not easily go.

While they are not rare, those for sale tend to have lost a fence.

Yesterday I saw and held a Stanley no 1 and two no 2. Wow what a tiny little plane is the no 1 :shock: When planing with it is only possible to hold the knob between thumb and index finger and the tote with only a few fingers wrapped around it! Jikes how could any one plane with it.

This is the tiny no 1

This plane is from around 1930, has 100% of its Japanning intact, no scratches, dents or anything. Its for sale at a mere 1450 euro. (so I didn't bought it)

The special long version no 2

This model is just before Stanley discontinued the no 2 and made somewhere between 1955 and 1961.

The regular no 2

With a sweetheart label and in a very good condition, even the decal is still on the tote.


Altough they where nice to look at and hold (understatement) I did not buy any of these. But I did buy the following:

A nice small and handy for the odd jobs sweetheart no 75.


A no 6 in a pretty good condition


A superb Moore & Wright combination square set.




Saterday I received the no 80 scraper plane I bought from the net.



That was sold as one buy along with these two no 51 spoke splanes:
