Special Use Plane

Stanley #L20-83E-HFL Shuttle PlaneStanley #L20-83E-HFL Shuttle Plane  This unusual Stanley Shuttle Plane is in nice original condition. These planes were used in the textile industry to shape or size shuttles in industrial settings. They were never offered in the standard catalogs and were a specialty item produced for this specific industry. There are a few different variations known, and most are found like this with no parts of the frame or track that it ran in.   At first glance these could be mistaken for a Bedrock with the flat top side rails, but they are that way to attach the missing frame to. The tags indicate that the collector bought this from Roger Smith in 1991. A nice example of a hard to find plane.

Stanley # 9 Cabinet Makers Low Angle Miter PlaneStanley # 9 Cabinet Makers Low Angle Miter Plane w/ Hot Dog Handle  The #9 miter plane was known as Stanley's piano maker or cabinet makers plane. It is a low angle miter plane designed for fine finish work and when properly tuned and set up will produce a fine finish.

This example is damage free, and has a nice even dark patina with no rust or pitting. Almost all of the original japanning is still on the interior surfaces. They are often damaged around the adjuster area at the rear, but this one is nice and damage free. The hot dog side handle is original and not a knockoff.  Look at the halo it has left on the side of the plane when removed in the other pics. The throat is nice, and there is lots of life left in the cutter. It also has the proper long neck lever cap.  A nice example of a hard to find plane.

Stanley Cabinet Makers Low Angle # 9 Miter Plane w/ Hot Dog Handle# 9 Stanley Low Angle Cabinet Makers Miter Plane w/ Hot Dog Handle This # 9 Stanley miter plane looks pretty good but it does have some issues. There is some damage on one side I have shown in the pics. It is hard to see, but there is a hairline crack in the side about 1" in front of the throat running up from the sole. There is a slight indent in the side at that point. It will never affect use, and this will be a great user, but it is there. The other issue is the lever cap off of a Sargent plane. There is no damage to the tail or areas around it. The cutter is nice with an early logo. The hotdog handle has been polished, but is "right". Tune it up and put it back to work.

Stanley # 12 1/4 Scraper PlaneStanley # 12 1/4 Scraper Plane  This NOS / unused #12 1/4 scraper plane has a marked Sweetheart Cutter. That is unusual as they are almost always missing from this plane. This 12 1/4 scraper looks to have never been used and still has waxed paper with grease / cosmoline stuck to it. The cutter was similarly wrapped when I got this and I took that off. It left just a few minor stains on the cutter.  It came in the generic white box you see, and I am not sure if this was some contract order, or something the owner made up on his own to protect it for the last 60 -80 years.

Look at the other pics to see that there is basically no rust or even stains on the body of the plane.  The japanning is close to 100% and original. A super plane in super hard to find condition.  You will not find a nicer condition example!!

Stanley # 12 3/4 Scraper PlaneStanley # 12 3/4 Scraper Plane  The Stanley #12 3/4  is a rare Scraper plane. They were only made for about 15 years. This Stanley #12 3/4 scraper plane is right. There has been nothing done to it. See the pics to confirm.

I have heard there is a new crop of fake ones being sold on eBay as real. That is too bad. I guarantee that this one is "right".

The condition of this example is pretty nice. The extra thick Rosewood sole is very nice and shows little signs of wear and tear. It looks to have seen little use but there are losses to the japanning in some areas. The sides are not pitted, but do have light stains that would easily lap out if you choose to do that.  Overall it is a pretty nice example of a rare Stanley plane.

Very Nice!!

The japanning on this example is well over 90% with just minor loses at the nose and tail. The cutter is full length. The throat area is nice with no chips or cracks.

Stanley # 164 Low Angle PlaneStanley # 164 Low Angle Plane   The #164 low angle plane is one of the rarest and hardest to find of all Stanley planes. Stanley offered this plane for about 17 years beginning in the early 1920's.

The condition is exceptional with over 97% of the original japanning and finish remaining. The Rosewood handles are in fine condition with nearly 100% of their finish. The throat is nice and the moveable front piece operates properly and is damage free. It was used, as the cutter is short. Lie Nielsen makes a version of this plane, and they have replacement cutters.

A super piece suitable for a spot on the top shelf in any Stanley collection!!

Stanley #164 Butcher Block PlaneStanley #164 Plane  This plane is in pretty nice condition. It is considered one the the hardest to find of all planes that Stanley produced. They were introduced in 1926 and production ended with the beginning of the war. Some have speculated that there was only one production run and then this supply was offered over the next 20 or so years. The adjusting mechanism is vertical and very tricky to get to operate, a factor that probably held back sales and plays a factor in its limited availability and super rarity.The cutter on this one is the rectangular block, thus dating it from near the end of the offering. The handle has a tight hairline in it that I do not think has been glued, but it is still stable. The front knob is nice, but there is a small chip in the boss where the rod screws into the moveable throat piece. This area still works properly but there is a relief at this point.  The japanning is well over 95% and looks good. The sides are nice, and there is very light pitting or texture on the sole. This would lap out easily if so desired.

Stanley # 444 Dovetail PlaneStanley # 444 Dovetail Plane  The Stanley #444 dovetail plane is one of the oddest planes made by Stanley. It was offered for a little over 25 years beginning in 1912. This example is in its original box, but appears to have had some restoration work done on it. It appears to have been chrome plated at some point, and I believe the spur blocks are recast replacements. I do not see any damage, welds, or pitting, but it has been worked over. The box of cutters is present, with 3 in it, and 1 in the plane making for a full set. The instruction on the lid are readable and there is an instruction pamphlet.
