To call it a Fathers Day tradition may be a little premature, but, the last several years, I have been taking a Friday off to go exploring the garage sales with a couple of my daughters. There is a 100 mile garage sale near our house on that weekend each year and, although we don't find a lot of tools, we have found a few good buys on occasion. I hit one small sale on the roadside where I found these. A Stanley 46 and a neat little saw bench. I am getting closer to handsaw work with this little find. I included a before and aftershot of the 46. Unfortunately, it came without its irons as they often do. Fifteen for the plane and five for the bench! I have been hunting for irons since June and bought some on Friday via the auction site! Cant wait to try this plane. I have read that 46's are a decent plane. I certainly hope so as the irons made this thing much more of an investment! I also found a nice Skil wormdrive saw the following day! Sorry...no pic of that one right now.
