Decided to head south for a while...and see if anything was new.....first stop? Urbana, Ohio.....a place called the Boston...one of two antique stores sitting side by side...1/2 a block north of the Traffic Circle where Rt 68 meets rt 36.... Thought the usual dealer was still upstairs..trudged up, and looked around...no sign of his stuff....a sign down the hall said "Man Cave".....mostly filled with model cars and airplanes...table over in the corner had all the tools... Over priced, at that...went back downstairs, asked about the dealer that used to be upstairs..."Oh, he moved, all the way to the back of the store...so, off I went... Walked through a doorway to find..this....did a "Right Face!" and.. 2 hand planes up on that shelf...anyway kept looking around.. Then a left face... Turned around to walk around that table... Then looked at the back wall.. Walked back near the handplanes...picked the iron bodied one up..could not set it back down...barely was able to when I took it up front to pay the $65 +Sales Tax Stanley No. 8c, Type 19.....Takes up half the table top.... So..that was the first part of the trip..didn't go next door...not carrying a 10 pound handplane. So. I loaded things up, and headed south to Harmony, OH.. Their is a HUGE place in that town...called Heart of Ohio Antique Center....IF you happen to go there, plan on at least 3 hours of walking around....I was on a mission, so I was only there just over an hour...and spent $12 +tax.. On these three tools...one with the pencil is made of Brass. Maybe I should do a second post..about all the sights to see in that place....feet are sore... Stay tuned...BTW...somehow, on the trip back home...I had the "honor" of following a State Patrol SUV MOST of the way...grrr

Just ordered these. Will be waiting my loving caresses upon my arrival. Byrd Shelix for the DeWalt. And, a tapered dovetail jig from Infinity. I see hours/days of fun in my future.
