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
weigh 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.
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 A complete set of 12 #20 Everlasting chisels in a custom
made dovetail box (of fruitwood) by Robert Soule, the
longtime superintendent of the Yale University Art Gallery;
in the best condition I've ever seen of this many, each
has its original red finish, many with the original decal
(some never had it); most show no bang marks on the ends,
these are probably unused, all have been sharpened and
show partial polishing on the backs; those that were used
were done so carefully, the 1/2" and 3/4" were used the
most; made during the early 1930's, the box keeps each
immobile via a hinged piece (that functions like a stockade)
on each side of the box, when all is latched it's impossible
for the chisels to roll about or flee; bright polish on the
steel, the images suggest otherwise; an exceptional set
that has always been together since their birthday, they
will be cherished by the collector or the user who takes
care of and respects vintage tools;

STANLEY
*******
ST1 #20 1/2 circular plane; probably unused, only nicer if in
the original box; '92 patent date on iron, this model is
the japanned version when the plane was offered as the #20
nickel plated model; never need upgrade condition; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t6.jpg $295.00
ST2 #10 1/2 smooth rabbet; early 1930's with sweetheart iron
that's nearly full length, all original parts, carefully
used, it can be used after honing the iron; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t6.jpg $190.00
ST3 #112 cabinet scraper; a nicely restored example with new
japanning, it's from the 1920's with sweetheart logo on
the unused blade and frog screw; most would call this one
new old stock, the japanning makes me believe that it was
redone, regardless, it can be used as is after turning a
burr on the blade; so much more soul than the modern
copies; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t7.jpg $230.00
ST4 G4C corrugated smoothing plane; a very clean, little used,
damage free example that can be as is; an auto-set design,
the iron maintains its set after removing it for a honing;
bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t7.jpg $125.00
ST5 #40 1/2 larger scrub plane; looks unused, decal still on
the tote, very small area of finish loss at top of the
knob, this can happen just sitting; a very nice example;
top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t8.jpg $165.00
ST6 #12 1/2 scraper; lightly used, with original blade, nearly
all finish remains, sole shows little wear; can be used as
is after putting a burr on the blade; bottom left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t8.jpg $95.00
ST7 #79 side rabbet; US made, nearly all plating remains, a
fine worker of a popular design; bottom right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t8.jpg $75.00
ST8 #16 block plane in the original box; would be difficult to
find a nicer example as the plating didn't last long, it was
used once or twice, there's plating loss in the hollow of
knob, that may have been from poor plating when new; from
ca.1925 with sweetheart logo on iron; left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t9.jpg $155.00
ST9 #18 1/4 in original box; plane looks unused, all finish
glistens, box has a small puncture (not all the way
through) from the lateral lever; a plane than never sold
well and was a misfit in the endless options of Stanley
block planes; middle:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t9.jpg $145.00
ST10 #18 knuckle joint block plane in the original box; ca.
mid-1930's, box has earlier notched label (Stanley used
labels from earlier production whenever they found them
forgotten in storage); extra clean, perhaps unused, box
has separated corners, plane is dusty from being displayed;
right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t9.jpg $135.00
ST11 #5 jack plane; barely used early 1930's model with full
decal on the tote; worthy of an original box, I don't be-
lieve it ever used; a worse example on that web auction
site recently sold for nearly twice the price as this one;
top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t11.jpg $165.00
ST12 #94 cabinetmaker's large rabbet plane; the most difficult
model to find of the four planes that use the same de-
sign, most are found in England where large metallic
rabbet planes were popular; nearly all plating remains,
from the 1920's with sweetheart logo stamped in the nose's
disk, it's free of damage; a very nice example in far
nicer than usual condition; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t11.jpg $290.00
ST13 #48 match plane; early japanned model in barely used con-
dition, it's doubtful a cleaner one exists; probably for
the collectors or the careful users, it's a great example
from early plane production of Stanley when the company
started to broaden the product line; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t12.jpg $185.00
ST14 #48 match plane; the Union production that was reworked
by Stanley when Stanley officially bought Union's products;
the Union name and model number were machined from the
casting, japanning was applied over those areas, and
Stanley stuck one of their ca.1930 decals on the tote; a
clean and little used example, with some minimal plating
loss along the top edge of the tote (as it typical for
this plane); bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t12.jpg $155.00
ST15 #39 1/2" dado; complete, free of damage, normal grunge
from sitting idle, it will clean well to make a great
worker; top left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t18.jpg $120.00
ST16 Pair of #18 sliding bevels; both in fine worker shape; an
earlier 8" with no plating, and 10" that saw barely any
use and made during WWII when plating wasn't available on
Stanley tools; top right two:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t18.jpg $55.00
ST17 #42X saw set; a very popular model today and when first
offered; functional, it's in as found condition with grime
that will clean; top right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t19.jpg $50.00
ST18 #35 transitional smoothing plane; very clean, almost worthy
of an original box, some tarnish on the '92 patent iron,
lateral lever has two patent dates stamped in it, 99.99%
original finish; would be very difficult to find a nicer
one from pre-1900; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t26.jpg $165.00
ST19 #71 1/2 router; earlier model that originally came with
two cutters, the V-cutter is added as it was offered on
later models; very clean, nearly all nickel plating re-
mains, vernier adjuster, pre-fence model; a fine worker;
top left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t28.jpg $135.00
ST20 Three #39 1/2 6" levels; each with original vials and in
very clean condition, they all differ from each other; one
nickel plated and ca.1910 production, other two are the
japanned models with sweetheart logos, one with brass vial
cover and the other with steel; with these, you're well on
your way to completing your type study; top right three:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t28.jpg $95.00
ST21 pre-lateral #4 smoothing plane; as found and in need of a
clean, it will do so very well; tight crack in handle will
glue nicely, iron is a '92 replacement; most japanning re-
mains, it will be a fine plane after a clean; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t29.jpg $110.00
ST22 #10 jack rabbet; a worker that has been expertly welded at
the right cheek after a crack developed; a pre-1900 example,
the tote is from a later plane, the lateral lever is hindered
as the earlier totes have more rake to them than the later
ones do, you can work the tote to allow movement; middle:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t29.jpg $80.00
ST23 #92 cabinetmaker's rabbet plane; earlier UK production, free
of damage, it can be used as is after honing the iron; no
longer in production, I used one to clean up rabbets when
one of our 200+ year old window frames gave up the ghost;
bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t29.jpg $110.00
ST24 #151 spoke shave; US made, much less common than those
made in England, all original parts, never abused and with
most japanning, plenty of life left to the 2" iron; the
double adjusting nuts make setting the iron easy; middle:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t30.jpg $45.00
ST25 #63 curved (toe to heel) spoke shave; 1920's production
with sweetheart logo stamped on the 1 1/2" wide cutter;
most japanning remains, a popular shave for working curved
edges; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t30.jpg $35.00
ST26 Pair of new old stock #58 6" dividers with with telescoping
leg; fine adjustment screw, in ready to use condition;
right two:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t32.jpg $55.00
ST27 US made #90J bull nose rabbet; made for a very short time
in the US, probably in response to similar planes that sold
quite well in England, Stanley decided to move production
to England and cease US production as the pattern wasn't
popular in the US; a 100% original and never messed with
example, the lever cap in embossed with USA, the iron is
stamped made in USA and with model number; barely used,
free of damage, a good one for the collection; left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t36.jpg $485.00
ST28 Same as the previous, but the common UK production; they
look identical, don't they, and they are save for the
made in England on the lever cap and stamping in the iron;
in fine worker shape, oh what a difference some letters
can make for value; right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t36.jpg $60.00
ST29 Graduated set of nine #750 chisels; each as found, most
with original handles that have decals, one has a re-
placement handle from a #720; widths of 1/8", 3/8" (with
replaced handle and not stamped with model number), 1/2",
3/4", 1", 1 1/4", 1 1/2", and 2" (a ring of leather missing
on handle and not stamped with model number); all with
tarnish, little used, and uncommon to find them this
numerous:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t37.jpg $385.00
ST30 Clean #70 scraper; popular today with boat builders, the
cutter's carrier rotates within the cast yoke to follow
curvatures on the work; originally sold to scrape wooden
boxes clean of printing so they could be reused, it's in
clean and little used condition; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t39.jpg $40.00
ST31 Three popular smaller planes - the #75 bull nose of an
earlier production with football shape logo, the #102
smaller block plane in clean and sound worker shape, and
the #9 1/4 block plane from ca.1960 in barely used con-
dition; bottom left three:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t39.jpg $85.00
ST32 #140 combination rabbet block plane; as found worker that's
free of damage and with all original parts, normal finish
wear, the skewed iron allows it to work any grain direction,
it can function as a block plane and a rabbet plane, the
latter suits it well for cleaning tenon cheeks; bottom
right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t39.jpg $115.00
ST33 #53 adjustable mouth spoke shave; as found example that
saw limited use, it sat around and developed rust on the
iron and sole, all will clean to make a fine worker; the
japanning is 75%, mouth can quickly be set fine/coarse
by turning the thumb screw on the yoke; ca.WWI production;
bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t40.jpg $40.00
ST34 Clean, most look unused, set of Jennings pattern twist
augers in an upright wooden case; UK production made when
US production ceased, all are original to the set save for
the #6 which is a Russell Jennings (earlier production)
replacement, this is the one that looks to have been used
a couple times; still with original black finish at chuck
end, the protective coating has darkened over time; sizes
1/4" to 1" in 1/16" increments, they are the best pattern
for hardwoods; left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t41.jpg $185.00
ST35 2" #720 bevel edge paring chisel; looks unused, with some
storage tarnish, the original handle parted company long
ago, a leather tip replacement fits it well; stamped with
model number; left:

ST36 1 1/4" #740 bevel edge paring chisel; the size between the
the shorter #750 and longer #720, it's not stamped with
the model number as this series rarely is, it has the
Stanley name stamped in the blade; in fine worker shape,
with tarnish from sitting, handle is a replacement; as
good as the popular #720 and #750 series; middle:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t42.jpg $55.00
ST37 1" #720 bevel edge paring chisel; stamped with model number,
replacement handle, wants some polishing on the backside,
it will make a fine worker; right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t42.jpg $40.00
ST38 Three later #40 Everlasting chisels with the hard rubber
handles; carefully used, with tarnish from sitting idle,
widths of 1/4", 3/4", and 1"; minor bang marks on metal
cap at heel; as good as the earlier wooden handle model,
but for less money; top left three:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t43.jpg $60.00
ST39 #8 Spofford design brace; made by Stanley after they bought
John Fray's Bridgeport, CT brace manufacturing; stamped with
Stanley Rule and Level and the model number in the thumb
screw, it's also stamped Ord.Dept.USA, it was sold to the
Army; most of the original japanned finish remains on the
8" sweep frame; an uncommon production; right:

its iron's hardness test dated March, 1941; free of damage,

an earlier model with the side wheel adjuster; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t46.jpg $75.00
ST43 7/8" #740 bevel edge paring chisel; rarely stamped with the
model number, the Stanley name is stamped in the blade; in

without a box, early 1930's production with the decal on
the tote and sweetheart logo stamped iron; if it was used,

WOOD PLANES
**** ******
WP1 Matching double iron sash plane with its coping plane; by
A.Cumings/Boston, the two have always been together and
are free of modication; little used, the profile is a
reverse ogee; owner mark, these planes are not easy to find
as a matched pair as it's often the case they were sent in
different directions when the shop/chest was pilfered for
profit by unknowing sellers; making sash is fun, I've made
a lot of it, these two planes make it quicker work than
you might think; top left two:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t1.jpg
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t1a.jpg $290.00
WP2 3/8" Gothic bead by Benson&Mockridge; as clean and nice as

https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t15.jpg $275.00
WP4 1/8" bead by H.Chapin and 1/8" center bead by Thos. Apple-
ton; each barely used, probably can still work as is in
softer wood, no owner mark, original surfaces, the center
bead has some grime that will easily clean; way nicer than
what's normally found, each are the smallest diameter of
the standard sets and are perfect for cabinetwork; top
left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t21.jpg
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t21a.jpg $135.00
WP5 3/8" ogee by H.Chapin; found with previous, original sur-
face, free of alteration, no owner mark, profile is more
Grecian than Roman proportions; face of iron will want a
quick polishing; top right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t21.jpg
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t21b.jpg $60.00
WP6 Owner made smoothing plane with nicely figured exotic wood
wedge and body; don't know which species this is, it has
good mass and tight grain; 8" long, double iron, throat has
scalloped detail to give it a nicer appearance; some minor
roughness at back of mouth doesn't hinder its use, no owner
marks, it's likely a coastal New England plane made by a
shipwright for his own use; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t27.jpg
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t27a.jpg $120.00
WP7 Yellow birch halving plane with very nice detail at the
chamfers; relieved wedge, 9 7/8" long, free of damage and
owner marks, this plane is the old way of butting adjacent
boards, like on the back of a carcass, prior to tongue and
groove planes appearing widely in the shop; good surface,
if you like doing period work with period planes, this is
a must have; bottom left:

https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t27c.jpg $110.00
WP9 Moving fillister with double dovetail boxed shoulder, box-
wood wedge to secure the nicker, and screw stop with steel
plated sole; three screw fence so the cutter can be removed
easily for sharpening; as found, free of modification, with
owner marks, and normal scuffs, it's in solid worker con-
dition for cutting a rabbet in any grain direction, it's
the best wooden plane for doing that; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t52.jpg $145.00
WP10 1/2" (depth of cut) quirk ovolo and fillet by Union Factory;
little used, still with grease pencil markings on heel, the

another profile; a clean plane; bottom:

https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t52a.jpg $85.00
WP11 Unique figured fruitwood bead/ovolo with double gouge cuts
on toe and heel to finish the chamfers; a 9 3/4" long plane
of New England origin, the plane is sprung to cut a 3/8"
diameter bead, ovolo, or quarter round; some minor staining,
a bit of breakout on the left side, still in sound worker
shape, it shows perfectly the limitless details that can
be found on the early New England planes, the grain figure
doesn't show well in the image; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t53.jpg
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t53a.jpg $155.00
WP12 3/4" old style bead; an 18th century beech plane made in
the style of the Sleeper school, it has no maker or owner
marks; 10" long, it cuts the proper early style quirk;
in good as found condition noting a long splinter off the
quirk behind the mouth, iron's face wants a polishing;

https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t53b.jpg $110.00
WP13 1" (depth of cut) large astragal and small cove; commonly
called a bollection, this one differs due to the notice-
able difference of sizes of the two members; cuts 1 1/2"
wide, made by Holbrook, with owner mark, in sound worker
shape, a good repair to the boxing at the heel:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t59.jpg $110.00
WP14 Pair of clean and barely used Deforest/Birmingham (Conn-
ecticut) quirk ogee and bevels, one 3/8" and other 1/2"
depth of cuts; free of modification, many consider this
maker's output some of the best wooden planes of America:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t77.jpg $190.00
WP15 C.M.Gere 1 1/8" square ovolo; a large size for this simple
profile; made by a family of planemaker's that started in
eastern CT, some moved to PA where this one was made; in
sound shape, no owner mark:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t78.jpg $90.00
WP16 1/2" ogee by J.West, an unrecorded mark that is very similar
to the D.West mark in the current AWP; ca.1800, made of
beech, flat chamfers, it will make a sound worker of a pro-
file that has unlimited uses:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t79.jpg $90.00
WP17 Jo.Fuller/Providence yellow birch round; roughly a No.10
size, as found, no owner marks, free of alteration, classic
middle working period, it has staining on both sides, it
may clean but certainly not all of it; a very nice plane
otherwise, I would have welcomed it in my collection when
seriously buying 18th century New England planes; top:

https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t85a.jpg $145.00
WP18 Boxwood screw arm plough by R.&L.Carter of Troy, NH; a
nice as found example with good and even patina, longer
than usual arms, the nuts are a darker color and may be
a different species; in fine worker shape, the threads
are in solid shape and nicer than usual condition; a lot
of tool for the money; top left:

WP19 7/8" toted match planes by Auburn Tool Co.; with steel
plated fences for more accurate work and longer wear,

planes version of the popular Stanley #48; bottom right

https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t86.jpg $90.00
WP20 1/4" dado by A.Smith/Lowell; a very clean and barely used
worker of an uncommon width, it can be honed and used as
is; made by one of Aaron Smith's sons, Smith was a maker
from Rehobeth, MA, several of his sons continued the trade
farther away from his location, the most notable being
E.Smith of Worcester; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t106.jpg $85.00
WP21 ca.1760 cornice plane by John Cogdell, a London planemaker
working 1750 to around 1770; in wonderful condition, it's
amazing the original finish is present with a couple worm
holes; it has the characteristics that are so desirable on
early New England planes - offset small tote, flat chamfers,
rounded iron, etc.; cutting a very nice profile of a square,
reverse ogee, and astragal, the plane has an early use of
springing, where the plane is worked with the sole at an
angle relative to the face of the wood, the resulting pro-
file is 1 3/4"; with some early owner initials, how this
plane sat for so long to remain in such fine shape is a
mystery, all that's been done to it is a later coating of
wax, it's difficult to imagine a finer example of an 18th
century English cornice plane extant:

*************
MS1 Henderson March 16, 1869 patent for a leather stretcher,

from Marietta, Ohio, this 10" long tool looks to be unused,
the patent date is stamped on both sides of the wooden
stock; designed for the manufacture of shoes/boots, it can
easily be mistaken for a nail puller; well made, there are

lever, this company, Union, and Stanley were all 'working'

the kind you drink not the kind you Ouija, it has the two
boxwood slide rules, the float, and the weights (one is

head and grip, maybe it was made for a trade show; in great
condition, little used, the 1871 patent dates are stamped
in the chuck's shell, the frame is stamped No.83; the frame

MS106 Precision bench-top drill press by H&D of Whitman, MA; a
great bit of kit, this lever action tool is something that
is better seen in person than the image can show; standing
roughly 16", the base can be screwed onto the bench; ad-
justable table can be swung left/right and up/down rela-
tive to the three jaw chuck; stout spring raises the lever
and chuck to its highest position; a round belt rotates
the chuck via four pulleys, the drive pulley has three
grooves, one for the source of power (a small electric
motor was probably used, you could probably rig up a
foot powered assembly or the goat on a treadmill thing),
another groove to turn the chuck, and the third as an
idler; in clean and 100% working condition, nothing is
broken, it appears a small part is missing to move the
belt on/off the idle pulley, I can't find another one
online to see what that is, but it must be a simple lever;
small area of rust on the table, this is a very cool thing,
the boy wants to keep it, but he was given a choice of this
or the looming tuition bill:

fold caliper rule by Lufkin; I can't recall seeing this
one before, I've seen similar with a different attaching

and depth gauge; new old stock, no maker's mark on it;

MS127 Sargent No.409 smoothing plane; a clean and little used
worker with all original parts including the stamped iron;

MS136 Wentworth pattern saw vise as made by E.C.Stearns; in
very clean condition, the jaw is tightened by rotating
a lever, both jaws can be adjusted together forward or
backward relative to the user; it came with a filing jig
that was removed long ago (as most have), it works like
any saw vise where hand filing does the work; left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t96.jpg $60.00
MS137 Athol Machine Co. No.65 machinist's vise; a strange one
that I can't recall seeing before, it has an elongated
sliding jaw portion so it can hold wider/thicker work;
in damage free condition, it saw barely any use, it's
dirty from sitting idle; made by a firm that produced
finely made tools, this one is no exception; 2 1/2" wide
jaws with hardened inserts, 11" overall length, three
holes for mounting, all it needs is a clean and a bench;

saw little, if any, use, the edge is 8 1/2" long;
sharpened on both sides, it's not a heavy thing; handle
looks to be original; bottom:

also probably unused; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t98.jpg $110.00
MS142 Record No. 05 1/2 oversize jack plane; a worker with no
damage and all original parts, the finish at the heel was
touched up by someone who's eye for color was off as it
has a purplish tone to it, you won't have to whack the
plane with an owner mark as you'll certainly be the only
one with purplish plane; top:

MS152 Ebony Ultimatum pattern stuffed brace; as found condition,
never in the hands or a restoration artist or mad buff
daddy, it's stamped with a Maidstone retailer of Haynes
Bros.; has full white ring inlaid in head, a stable
check in the head and down near the chuck, so many of
these have been messed with (checks often filled), this
one is 100% honest; left:

MS153 Preston nickel plated spoke shave with fancy casting;
most plating remains, never polished to the point you

MS154 Pair of unrelated tools, a Johnson&Tainter's patent push
drill with good amount of original gold finish, and a
patented try square and bevel by Houle with rosewood
handle and blade stamped with name and 1894 patent date;
both out of the same tool chest, as found, and in sound
worker shape, heel of square's handle shows some minor
chipping; top two:

MS157 Early tapered reamer for pump logs; tapers the end of a
pipe to form the male end of the joint, it's an uncommon
survivor of time when wooden pipes were state of the art
in plumbing; made of wood, the business end has forged
bits to secure the cutter; driven with a T-handle in-
serted at the top, the handle is long gone; 12" overall
length, cutter is 6", it's in as found condition and is
structurally sound; back in the days of Eric Sloane tool
collecting, a food fight would have erupted at an auction
to own this thing; top:

MS158 Large 1 1/2" registered firmer chisel, a framing/mortice
chisel by another name; with elongated turned handle that

grain of the wood stand on end when this one comes near;
cloth pouch included; middle:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t105.jpg $75.00
MS159 Smaller paper/card cutter; cast iron base, good age, with
original turned knob, if you sharpen the 'cutter' like a

MS160 Two corner clamps by Hartford Clamp Co.; cam lever draws

clean, guaranteed to be fine workers; bottom two:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t106.jpg $135.00
MS161 Original catalogue of the Western Foundry & Machine Works
of Topeka, KS; an odd catalogue for a rather odd place to
be making the stuff within, which is quite diverse - steam
engines, governors, heaters, boilers, whistles, gauges,
fittings (these all make sense), but it u-turns into
pulleys, log trucks, belt fasteners, sprocket wheels,
agricultural mills, and the money shots of monstrous
metal crunching machinery all of this with a cover that
features the face of a young girl leading the reader to
believe, perhaps, dolls and stuff like that are within;
no date, it looks to be ca.1875, the business was run by
R.L.Cofran; some staining on the cover, and at the bottom
throughout the pages, it may be that the owner of this
drooled over the heavy metal thunder toward the back of
the catalogue; whatever, it certainly must be a rare
catalogue as most people think of the Evel Knievel Museum,
rather than antique big metal, when the thought of Topeka
enters the mind; spine a bit fragile, it's in no danger of
coming apart:

MS165 Millers Falls No.07 combination rabbet block plane; barely
used, with some tarnish (most on the right side), it can

offered by Stanley; bottom left:

with octagonal hammer end; good worker, handle is an old
replacement and firmly attached; left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t112.jpg $75.00
MS168 Three worker hammers; a cross peen pattern that seems now
to be called a planemaker's hammer with an older replaced
handle, a latter cross peen and a 2oz ball peen, the latter
two are Stanley; each in fine worker shape; right two:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t112.jpg $85.00
MS169 15" long bruz, a corner chisel named differently by wheel-
wrights; next to impossible to destroy, 1" width, in fine
worker shape, the heel of the 'handle' shows the normal
mushrooming; a much nicer than usual example; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t113.jpg $75.00
MS170 Pair of worker saws in clean and ready to use condition; a
patented Disston with apple handle on a 12pt 18" cross-
cut, this one is designed to accept several different
blades, and a metal cutting saw likely made by Atkins
for Montgomery Wards with extra fine teeth, it's too large
to bake in a cake to spring loverboy from jail, 18" blade;
these are nice saws in clean condition; middle two:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t113.jpg $115.00
MS171 Late 18th century saw with what looks to be its full
plate; 26" long, with the classic handle and rounded
nose, this as found saw will clean to be a nice example,
the rust is heavy but I think pitting will be shallow;
if it had a nib, it's long gone; steel screws, two
heads are missing, this one saw very little use, it
'fermented' for 150+ years in a local barn and was
rescued by yours truly in the back of a pickup truck of
stuff what used to be found commonly in New England
barns; saws of this age are very difficult to find as most
got entirely used or discarded when better quality ones
appeared decades later, this one is especially rare as
it looks never to have been sharpened after leaving the
manufacturer; top:

MS172 24" 8pt crosscut saw by Simonds; as found, with tarnish
spots and some small areas of shallow pitting, small
splinter off underside of top horn, nib is present, the
backside is much cleaner than the photographed side; a
great quality saw by America's best sawmaker, it will
make a great worker; bottom:

MS173 A bargain pile of Jennings pattern augers; three dozen+
of them, most covered in protective grease, they look
blah, but they aren't as most have their original luster;
solid workers found in a tool chest of fine quality stuff,
you'll be glad you bought them after cleaning them:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t116.jpg $175.00
MS174 Good quality screw driver brace; made for reaching into
confined areas, this one has a nice two color lignum head
and grip, the grip is riveted to the forging, the head
rotates over it; in fine shape, good age, roughly 30" long,
it has a pre-1900 look about it; top:

MS175 Larger smith-made outside caliper with nicely formed wing
nut locking screw; good age, found in a New England tool
chest, it's about 18" from hinge to center of jaws; thick

ward), the wing nut is 2 3/4" wide; these are nice, the
image fails to capture its soul; owner initials; bottom

https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t117.jpg $115.00
MS177 Unique hammer struck saw set with heart shape wing nuts
and on a decorated mahogany base; a functional tool, it's
also a great looking one with gouge cuts on the corners
of the 9" long base; very well made, two extensions allow
it to be held in a bench vise; good age, probably ca.
1875, a later owner stamped his name in the wood; a very
nice tool that looks nicer in the person than the images
can capture; left:

MS178 Eight Marples turning chisels in the tatty original box;
pre-WWII manufacture, these came from the hoarder pile
that has been offered over a year's worth of lists, when
I sold these to him they were in pristine condition, he
left them in an unheated area and rust developed; will
clean to be fine workers:

MS179 Clean Goodell-Pratt drill with turned wooden spool to
operate; usual great GP quality, in much nicer than usual

MS180 Spear's February 16, 1904 patented spoke shave; a design
popular with the gunsmiths working around Springfield, MA,
Spear received the patent while residing there; normally
found with a wooden stock, this one is a rare variant of
aluminum; a fine quality tool, it's similar to the Razor
Edge design offered by Stanley, the cutter works the wood
at a nearly zero degree pitch; patent date stamped on the
stock, owner initials also; middle:

MS181 Small drawknife with 2 1/2" wide cutting edge; owner made
and done nicely, it's in worker condition, the handles
are friction fit on the forging, the cutting edge is
angled relative to the plane of the handles; perfect for
smaller work; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t142.jpg $75.00
MS182 Rosewood slitting gauge with brass plated fence; brass
collar on arm where the brass wedge (finial snapped off,
it's easy to file another) secures the knife blade; as

most versatile gauge of all; top:

MS183 Unused graduated set of six Clay cabinetmaker's screw
drivers; best quality, always together, sized properly to

Marples were the two best makers of these; bottom;
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t145.jpg $135.00
MS184 Unique adze with a chamfered, slender, and curvy shaped
handle that shames Marilyn Monroe; unlike any I've seen
before, the handle is secured in a tapered square socket
that is in turn secured to the head with a nut and bolt;
perhaps some visionary's patent, all I find on it are
owner marks, it may simply be a labor of love by a skilled
craftsman with a lot of time on his hands, it really
doesn't matter who created it, it's satisfying enough
knowing that it exists; 4" cutting edge, the opposite side
is expertly shaped to form a hammer; in fine as found
condition, it can be admired as is or put to use after a
sharpening; during the bizarre and timeless mating ritual
of adzes, a pick-up line such as "hey baby, mind if I adze
you a question - wanna hit the wood and let the chips fly
where they may" wouldn't be out of line here as this one
is smoking hot:

MS186 Millers Falls No.23 smaller bench mount drill press; a
popular tool today for general boring, it's easy to use
by cranking the drive handle and pulling the lever down-
ward to feed the bit into the work; all original parts,
table isn't splattered with drill marks, only apology is
the wooden crank handle has a check in it, here's a good
place to practice your woodworking skills by filling it

MS187 #4 size Meriden Malleable smoothing plane with the adjust-
able mouth; as found, free of damage, all original parts,
these planes are uncommon, finding them without damage to
the slender totes is very difficult; normal tarnish from
sitting, this is a nice example:

GENTLEMAN WOODWORKER
********* **********
The ninth installment of his high end tools, there's still no
visible end of the pile on the horizon.
GW1 Pair of American snipe bills made by an uncommon maker,
Hills&Richards of Norwich, Mass; in sound worker condition,
never abuse, they taper on both sides of each stock to
limit the amount of exposed boxing, which often chips and
cracks, it's a clever design that I haven't seen on other
makers' planes; owner initials, lightly cleaned; top two:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t118.jpg $190.00
GW2 Pair of #8 hollow and round planes by a modern maker with
initials J.P.D.; made of beech in the late 18th century
style, little used, good quality, fine mouth, may be un-
used; bottom two:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t118.jpg $90.00
GW3 W.Raymond late 18th century cornice plane; 3" cut of the
common ogee and reverse ogee separated by a square, it's
in as found condition with a good amount of dust; in solid
condition, owner mark, tote's horn has a chip; made of
beech, with broad flat chamfers, Raymond worked in Beverly,
MA, his style reflects the earlier planes made north of
Boston:

GW4 Pair of quarter rounds by Iohn Green; later period, in fine
worker shape, with owner initials, they compliment hollows
and rounds when making profiles that have coves; top two:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t120.jpg $185.00
GW5 #65 chamfer shave; one of the few Stanley tools in the
collection, this is a very clean ca.1890 example; can be
used as is after honing the iron; bottom left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t120.jpg $85.00
GW6 Lie-Nielsen small bronze spoke shave with flat sole; a copy
of the Preston model, but without the fancy casting, it saw
very little use and is sharp enough to use as is; bottom
right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t120.jpg $85.00
GW7 Here's one you don't see everyday, a type 2 #3 smoothing
plane fit with a Hock iron and cap iron; a clean and
damage free example, finding the proper iron isn't too
difficult, you can sell the iron to pay for it; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t121.jpg $235.00
GW8 Preston 3/4" rabbet plane; uncommon width, as found, most
plating gone, in fine worker shape, one corner of the bed
has an insignificant chip from long ago, the iron is still
sharp enough to use as is; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t121.jpg $235.00
GW9 Knew Concepts coping saw for 6 1/2" blade; barely used, it
needs a blade; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t122.jpg $125.00
GW10 Same as previous, but 3" fret saw with lever tension;
barely used, with blade; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t122.jpg $60.00
GW11 Owner made 6 1/2" cast smoothing plane with exotic wood
stuffing; bronze lever cap and screw, with hexagonal head,
it's in as found condition; looks to be free of damage,
owner mark, the lever cap has been moved, which is common
when the iron is changed, the plane should have the iron
replaced on it as it's thin and about used up; a project,
but definitely one worth bringing back to life as it has
a lot of mass and a good feel in the hand; heel is rusty,
there may be the usual harmless crack that a clean may
reveal, most cast planes have this 'feature' radiating
upward from the screw hole to secure the stuffing; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t123.jpg $125.00
GW12 Veritas low angle block plane with optional wooden adjust-
ing knob and squirrel tail handle; little used, lots of
mass, dusty, a nice plane; middle:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t123.jpg $175.00
GW13 Preston No.1393S beading tool; a smaller tool at 4" long,
the fence can slide laterally relative to the round cutter,
it can be placed on either side; in worker shape, one side
of the casting was filed down so it could work in a con-
fired area, it works as well as a pristine one does;
bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t123.jpg $80.00
GW14 7/8" (depth of cut) reverse ogee and astragal by J.Stevens;
in sound worker shape, plane has been cleaned, one of my
favorite profiles:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t124.jpg $115.00
GW15 Odd bevel, astragal, step, and astragal by Griffiths of
Norwich; cuts 3/8" deep by 7/8", it's in fine as found
shape, dusty, owner initial, normal banging on heel from
backing the iron off:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t125.jpg $195.00
GW16 5/8" (depth of cut) quirk ogee and astragal by Iohn Green;
flat chamfers, it's in good as found condition with owner
marks:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t126.jpg $120.00
GW17 Same as previous, but 7/8" cuter; also in good as found
condition, with owner mark:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t127.jpg $120.00
GW18 7/8" (depth of cut) square, square ovolo, and square by
Moon; a nice compound profile made of simpler profiles,
it's in sound shape; owner maker, banging on heel:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t128.jpg $145.00
GW19 1/4" square ovolo by G.Steadman; good size for cabinet-
work, cleaned, dusty from sitting:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t129.jpg $80.00
GW20 1/2" thumbnail (quarter round) by D.R.Barton; good shape,
little used, cleaned, with owner mark:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t130.jpg $110.00
GW21 Wenzloff&Sons 14" backsaw; little used, some minor tarnish
spots from sitting, like other saws he owned, the bottom
horn has an area of rasping to shape it better for his
hand, it works as well as a pristine one, which no can be
bought new; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t131.jpg $2i5.00
GW22 Bad Axe 14" backsaw with copper color spine; probably used
one or twice, but enough to have caused a check/split in
the handle when it slammed into the work, it's still
tightly attached; a worker; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t131.jpg $155.00
GW23 Veritas shooting board fence and tracks on his owner made
board; looks to be an earlier model than what's currently
shown on the Lee Valley page; barely used, if at all:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t132.jpg $165.00
GW24 Norris A5 pre-war dovetailed steel smoothing plane with
rosewood stuffing; a decent example that never was cleaned,
it did see a fair bit of use as the original iron has about
3/4" life left in it; mouth free of alteration, years of
use show that on the tote where thumb and handle have left
their marks on the wood, owner name stamped in wood; a good
and never messed with example that was well loved:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t133.jpg
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t133a.jpg $690.00
GW25 Unused Japanese chamfer plane; one of the few Japanese
tools he owned, it's way too simple for my simple mind to
appreciate, it uses wooden thumb screws to set the width
of cut; top:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t134.jpg $95.00
GW26 Three Veritas taper gauges in their original cases; each
different scales - fractional, decimal, and metric; in good
working order, I don't believe the fractional are still
offered; bottom left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t134.jpg $95.00
GW27 Four Flexcut carving knives; each different, probably un-
used; bottom right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t134.jpg $60.00
GW28 Holtey 6 1/2" dovetailed bronze and steel smoothing plane
with steeply pitched iron and adjusting nut that allows the
iron to be used bevel down or bevel up; his model No.11SA,
it's one of his own designs and made to exacting precision,
the plane can function as a smoothing plane and a scraper;
rosewood stuffing, it may have been used once; similar to
the one offered last month but with the adjusting nut to
set the iron precisely:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t135.jpg
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t135a.jpg $1985.00
GW29 Gouging gauge for cutting the shallow gouged groove at the
back of Windsor chair seats; I can't remember who made this,
not many were sold, it's well made, and probably unused;
top left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t136.jpg $95.00
GW30 Lie-Nielsen drawbore pins; octagonal handles prevent them
from rolling about on the bench, barely used, some minor
tarnish from sitting; top right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t136.jpg $110.00
GW31 Lie-Nielsen large cheek float; cuts on the push stroke,
may have been used a couple times; bottom:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t136.jpg $50.00
GW32 12 Arkansas slip/honing stones in their original wooden
cases; don't know who made these, each box has four stones
of soft, hard, and translucent Arkansas, some show normal
use, many are unused; 4" long; left:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t137.jpg $115.00
GW33 HNT Gordon 1/2" shoulder plane in darker hardwood that
differs from the ones listed last month; looks unused;
top right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t137.jpg $165.00
GW34 Norris dovetailed steel 3/4" rabbet plane; body, iron, and
wedge have assembly numbers, it's free of modification;
owner name in the metal and wedge, carefully used, a good
worker; bottom right:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t137.jpg $275.00
GW35 Seven cranked bevel edge paring chisels by Marples; in
solid worker shape, always together, widths of 1/8", 1/4",
3/8", 1/2", 3/4", 1", and 1 1/2"; minor tarnish here and
there; English chisels of this pattern are far less common
than US output:
https://supertool.com/forsale/jul/t138.jpg $375.00
GW36 Holtey No.98 low angle smoothing plane; Holtey's own de-
sign, its construction approaches human perfection in
metal that it's difficult to imagine anyone being able to
make one any better; cheeks are fastened to the sole with
machined pins, a Norris style adjuster precisely sets the
cutter; adjustable mouth, great mass, this one took one
or two passes on the wood and then was put away; a plane
to use, hold, or admire:
