Stanley #5 plane

[Gordon LaVere]

I went to a Estate Sale on Sat (Note it was the second day of the sale.)
I picked up a Stanley #5 plane. It was prices at $12.00 and I was willing to pay that. When I went to pay for it They said $6.00 today is half price day. So I'm a happy shopper. I spent few hour on Sunday sharpening it and I'll clean up the rest today. This will not be a retoration just a clean and use job.

This should defnitely be defned as a gloat. The no 5 is the most handest of jacks too. Pat your self on the back and head to Los Vegas...If your proven luck holds out, you'll clean the city out!

Great buy!

Wow, you can't even get a tote for $6. And no shipping charges.

Great find.

Yes it may be a you suck ;). But my wife and I go to estate saleing every weekend. My whole woodshop has been from Estate sale, garage sales or Craigs list. I prefer the older tools. You know cast iron, heavy. They already lasted 50 years and will out last my son. Think OWWM web site. I clean spit and polish fix them when and where I can. Sometime I think the hunt is more fun that the use of......
