steven newman Posted November 12, 2014 Report Posted November 12, 2014 Well, one did show up in the mail today. Auction price was $0.99 Looking a bit rough around the edges. Drawing is by one of the GrandBRATS. Sole was a little rusty So, maybe a trip through rehab for this plane? About an hour later, a test drive on some cherryand a look at how this plane cleaned upthen tried some squirrelly white Oak And a look at the resultsNot too bad for a dollar jack plane? Plane is by Millers Falls, about the last Good planes they made. Number stamped on the side is: Millers Falls No. 14-01B iron had a slight camber to it, chipbreaker had to be fixed, as it curved up like a smile. Needed a #3 Phillips screwdriver to tear things down. And a couple straight bladed ones too. Might be .....OK Quote
Gene Howe Posted November 12, 2014 Report Posted November 12, 2014 Great deal! You can make any plane work, and work well though, Steven. Quote
