The local resale store proprietor sometimes texts me when there is something that might interest me.  I got one of those texts last week and stopped by to find that she had a little transitional plane for me to look at. I have had a general rule to not buy a lot of transitional planes but this little guy just spoke to me so a rule was broken once again!  Nothing too unusual here, just a nice little transitional smoother.  HSB Revonoc marked on the toe so Conover Hardware Co. and it has a 92 patent Stanley iron in it.  The iron has been well sharpened, about 3/4 of the wat worn to the keyhole.   Aside from wiping off the dust, is in nice overall condition with minimal rust.  I intend to spruce it up a bit in time but thought I would share a few pics as I got it. 10 bucks damage on this one.

Nice a used but well kept tool

Nice find. For ten bucks, a REALLY nice find.

Nice find.  I don't recall ever seeing one with a wooden shoe and surround.  Very interesting.  

I have one transition plane . Got it cheap because had no lever cap. It works but is not one of my users. This site may give you some of the story on these planes

Stanley did make a version of that type of plane...

No. 35.....Ohio Tool Co. also had one..

But they called it an 035.  Sold the Stanley, kept the Ohio Tool Co. one.....as it had a thick, tapered iron..

That "thing" behind it?   An Ohio Tool Co.  No. 0-7

I don’t have an Ohio, but I do have the Stanley!  Guess I have liked this size plane more than once. Oh well!  The Ohio is cool too!
