Stanley 57

[Nicholas Lingg]

Are these thumb screws correct for this Stanley 57 Plane?

They look different than what is on Blood & Gore:

Yours may be an early version before someone decided to put slots on the screws. Then again, they do look a bit long.

It may be someone messed up the slot heads and changed out the screws. My guess is the threads would be 1/4-28, but that is just a guess.
