Or.......just drive over to the place, and pick it up?    20 minute drive, on a sunny morning?   Went over to a little town called Mount Victory, OH ( lots of antique stores, if you can catch them opened)to pick up two items I won on FeeBay..  Maybe a 20 mile long drive.   Farm house and barns were back a LONG (3/4 of a mile!) lane that had more potholes than the city of Bellefontaine. 

 

The two items I picked up?

S. Smith & Son was stamped into the blade.   Both cleaned up nicely.    Gives me 10 block planes ( for now) and these three things

Stanley #64, and a mystery spokeshave, and the $12 newbie.    Block was $4, total was $16 + Ohio Sales Tax....Just to save almost $15 in shipping.....
