Stanley Bench Planes


Stanley #2 Smooth PlaneStanley # 2 Smooth Plane  This is a pretty nice looking example.  The original black japanning is 85% or better, the rosewood rear handle is nice, and the casting is damage and pit free.  The cutter is a Sweetheart era and that looks proper for this vintage plane.  The front knob is OK, and has a nice form, but may be a replacement.  .

Stanley Defiance #2 Size PlaneStanley / Defiance / Eclipse # 2 Smooth Plane  This is a later #2 with the cutter marked Eclipse.  The collector had it in the Stanley collection and that is what the red tag on the side represents.  I initially thought he was dreaming, but in looking through John Walters ID & price guide I see he was on to something.  This is actually a quite rare and desirable # 2 size plane according to that reference. 

It looks as though the front knob has been replaced, and the rear tote has been reglued.  It is otherwise pretty nice.

Stanley 3C Smooth Plane2 Stanley #3 Corrugated Smooth Planes  These Stanley #3 size corrugated smooth planes are both nice. On the left is an early low knob model with a full length cutter.  It does not have the external frog adjuster.  It is in super condition. 

The right hand one is nice and later.  It has a nice handle and is pre-war.  It does have the external frog adjuster.   Its cutter is shorter, but has plenty of life, and I have NOS teens era cutters for 10.00 additional you can order with it.

Stanley Aluminum Planes3 Stanley Aluminum Bench Planes  Stanley made and sold a few different Aluminum planes and other tools back in the 20's and 30's.  They made an aluminum version of the #18 block plane, the  #78 and the #45, some levels, a brace, as well as these three different size bench planes, the A4, the A5,  & the A6.  

Each of these planes is pretty nice with no major detractions.  They are quite soft, and can oftentimes be found with deep scratches in the soles or sides, but these 3 examples are pretty nice.  Each has been fitted with one of Stanley's aftermarket aluminum handles that were typically offered separately.   I suppose the collector felt they better represented the flavor of the aluminum planes and he probably swapped them out just for the look.

Stanley Pre Lateral PlaneStanley Type 4 Pre Lateral  #5 Jack Plane  This is a nice early example. The bed is not marked, and only the cutter / chip breaker and inside the brass nut are marked.  The handle looks like an early and well done replacement.  It is Rosewood.    No other problems.  Clean it and display it.  Nice.

Stanley #5 Original BoxStanley #5 Jack Plane in Original Box  This looks to be a war era WWII  plane from the looks of it the box, and logo on the box and plane characteristics.  It has no external adjuster, and has a hard rubber wheel for the adjuster.  The box has some split corners, but is interesting with no orange covering.  It did a nice job of keeping the plane near mint, and the discoloration you see is a preservative coating that will wash off.   No problems, it is like new and I doubt it was ever used.  Very Nice.

Stanley 604 1/2 Bedrock PlaneStanley # 604 1/2 Bedrock Jack Plane  This is a nice 604 1/2 Bedrock plane. These are becoming very hard to find anymore.   The Bedrock line of planes were the Cadillac of the Stanley series of bench planes and there is no finer, better design,  or more popular plane made.

The plane has seen use, and there is some missing japanning up at the front end. I put a very nice Stanley decaled Rosewood handle on it.  It is  a very nice example that will be a great user.

Stanley / Gage # G6 Fore PlaneStanley / Gage # G 6 Fore Plane  When Stanley saw a competitor eating into their market share the usual reaction was to buy them out and that is what they did to the Gage Plane co. of Vineland NJ.  Gage only offered a line of wooden planes, but Stanley saw an opportunity to design and produce a line of Gage like planes in metal to compete with Sargents line of Auto Sets which looked similar.

This plane is in nice condition, and ready for the bench or shelf.
