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.
If there is anything in particular that you're after, do ping me
as there is a lot of stuff here that isn't on the list; the list
just represents a snapshot of the previous month's haul with none
of the stuff having appeared on a previous list. I like to keep
things fresh here.
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 Monday
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
weight 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.
Lastly, and I don't like to mention this, but if you tell me that
money is on the way for something you want, and you never make good
on it, we won't be doing business in the future. It's unfair, actually
downright discourteous, to others who want the same thing, and I tell
them it's sold. Pull this on me, and you're exorcised from the list.
Sorry, but I don't tolerate this behavior well at all.
Don't forget the cool new tools that I'm making - a jazzy layout
knife being used by professionals (made the cover of Feb.1998 FWW!),
a detachable block plane handle designed to fit your standard pitch
block planes, a killer Robinson's Improved Patent sliding bevel, a
tilting jaw for your Emmert's vise, and the finest bench plane in
production today, the Bed Rock #601. You can see it all at:

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 zipper-
head, a propellerhead, 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
******** ***** ** *** *****
FT1 Holding what many consider to be Stanley's most beautiful
plane manufactured, the tool youth gladly took a break
from the greasy and messy job of restoring a 1935 Buick
so he could appreciate this fine #42 first model Miller's
Patent (tool youth is slowly developing a taste for tools
finer than Snap-On, et al); an as found and never messed
with example, I put it in the Inner Sanctum exactly as
photographed with all its character and minors flaws
preserved from the last time it was used; great patina,
loads of japanning in the background is partially obscured
by the years of grime, a crack in the rosewood tote (which
is almost unavoidable) and a minor bend to the gunmetal
fence, and a missing deflector screw, all of which guarantee
that it's never been in the hands of a tool Rembrandt;
with its characteristic 'humpback' and return in front of
the rosewood grip, this design was offered for a few years
and is now prized by any serious collector of Stanley or
metallic planes; Victorian design at its best, these
planes were produced to make the tried and true wooden
plough planes, often made of exotic woods and sometimes
with ivory adornment, obsolete, the planes had to have
visual appeal as no cabinetmaker would give up his jazzy
wooden plough plane for a dull chuck of metal that performs
the same function; form, function, design smashed together
to form tool art with this plane:

ST84 #G36 Gage patent transitional plane; the wooden version
of a #4 1/2 size plane, it has the clever gauge patent
to adjust the cutter and allow the set to stay the same
after a honing; as found, looks like junk, it'll clean
to make a good worker, the plate along the top of the toe
has a bend at the heel, a bit of the wood at the tip of
tote is missing, that's far less than what's normally
found; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/sep/t93.jpg $75.00

all are 10" sweep, it's noticeably smaller than the larger

handle; a fine quality hammer that saw careful use, it

today; head has protective coating, from the 1930's, every-
thing is definitely a nail with this one in hand; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/sep/t114.jpg $35.00
ST96 #40 1/2 larger scrub plane; identical to the #40, but a bit
larger for bigger jobs, it's the better of the two planes

a 1920's sweetheart model; bottom:

arms, nuts, and washers, six matching cutters, another one
in the plane, this one saw limited use, shows normal wear

lot of plane for the money:
https://supertool.com/forsale/sep/t8.jpg $155.00
WP3 J.H.Lamb/New Bedford 2" skewed rabbet with nicker and two
metal strike buttons (added later); never cleaned, owner

cabinetmakers, 7 1/4" long; oiled, with owner marks, and
showing typical signs of use; fully boxed soles, cut 3/16"

example that only needs a honing to be put back to work,
the stock has a dark patina, an owner applied some red
paint on the heel of the double iron; closed tote, owner
mark, and in much better than usual firewood condition;
a solid worker with more mass than a #8; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/sep/t79.jpg $145.00

solution for cutting rabbets in any grain direction, the

MS54 Leonard Bailey No.43 spoke shave; a rather strange design
that Bailey thought would prove to be popular, it failed
miserably, when found it normally is missing one of the
nuts, this one is 100% complete and original; as found,
in need of a clean, still with shavings in the mouth from
when last used, it's the less common (both models are
uncommon) adjustable mouth model; middle:

GP made some of the best tools made anywhere, this one is
no exception; bottom:

MS56 Smaller Goodell-Pratt eggbeater drill with cocobolo handle
that unscrews to store the drill points (none present); I
forget the model number on this quality worker; three jaw
chuck, ready to use condition, most original finish remains,
a previous owner thought so much of this one that he put a
lot of effort into a stout brass collar that partially
covers the ferrule that split (as the commonly do); middle:

MS59 3 1/2" slick by Underhill, Brown & Leighton; a wonderful
and uncommon example in an unusual width, it has its original

is a honing; a short-lived partnership, this slick has
everything going for it; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/sep/t42.jpg $195.00
MS60 2" slick (hesitate to call it a framing chisel as it's
too long and not the typical thickness) by the same firm

a honing; middle:

MS62 Disston No.7 26" 7pt ripsaw; with original teeth, general
tarnish, but much nicer than usual shape, minor roughness

and hungry; top:

far nicer than what's normally found, when it's found with
a miter box; middle:

MS65 J.S.Palmer patent show exhibitor; patented by Palmer of
Mystic Bridge, Connecticut on May 3, 1881, it's a simple
japanned cast iron clip that is designed to screw onto
the side of a wooden shoe box so that one of the shoes
can be removed and displayed on the side; stupid idea,
this might explain why it didn't sell well, this one
looks to be new old stock; back when this was made, no
one had the guts to tell an inventor to seek another
career, for us today such ideas gone awry make the best
collectibles; bottom:

MS69 Tyzack copy of the Preston router design; with two handles
that can be swapped with the adjuster to configure the tool
three ways, it's complete, with three cutters, and in the

router lovers are giving this one a serious look and finding
out that it works just as well as the Preston; top:

MS76 Japanese pistol grip saw; 19" of backward teeth that are
still sharp enough to stop Mothra mid-flight when thrown
as a boomerang; lots of scribbling on it that is Japanese
to me, it appears to have good age and is not some Home
Cheapo product; I've tapped out my knowledge of Japanese
tools as I find them quite blah but my skin tells me it's
still sharp, maybe not sharp enough to rebuild Tokyo after
a Godzilla shopping spree there, but still sharp enough
to rip skin to shreds; top:
