2 items from a Road Trip

[steven c newman]

Total cost was just over $109, counting tax, and a 10% Discount...the items?
518594
The iron is a Stanley 2-3/8" wide, almost unused..$12?

As for the Union....No. 41....was listed as $100...got that 10% discount, which helped a bit...

Turned down a Stanley No. 5c ( $50) a No. 606...and a Stanley No. 5-1/2....

Saw a LOT of planes that were priced like they were Gold Plated...was more on the look out for tools the shop didn't already have...

I did take a lot of photos, today..IF anyone wants to look them over...
518595
remember..IF it is inside a LOCKED glass case..$$$....there is a Stanley No. 4-1/2 in there..$125?
518596
And..not everything was made of iron, either...

A closer look at that tag on the Stanley iron..
518630
That be the original price tag...price was $1.53....Iron has never been used, nor sharpened..still has the "Factory Grind Edge"

Logo on the iron is in the clipped corner style box...with MADE IN USA under the box. Width is 2-3/8"..and is 3/32" thick...

Might just be worth the $12 I paid for it?

Hmmm, see how things go, today..
518896
Along with a #12 24 die..there is also a #12 28 die....might be a Stanley size?
518897
Aisle #5 corner...
518898
Stall #4...walk in the front door, hang a right..4th stall on the left side..
518899
Molding planes?
518900
Just above these Match Planes...there was a #192 by Stanley...

Place is in Harmony, OH...east of Springfield,OH on US 40...just before the I-70 interchange....IF you go, plan on a couple hours just walking through all the rooms...and aisles...
518901
And..sometimes you have to look real close...

I experienced that Antique mall on a road trip a few years back. They had more vintage tools than I've seen outside of American Homestead. One guy easily had 25 drawknives, with many like new. That T&G Plane was a nice score. That's one plane that's on my very short list.

Steven,

Good job, and I think that $12 for that iron is a SUPER deal on your part.

Regards,

Stew

Fine Tuning rebates...so that the rails will go on better...without binding..

[Keegan Shields]

$90 for a plane? Steven - I expect better negotiation from you! :)

Before you know it, you'll be buying used Lie Nielsen's.

JK - Great looking plane.

[steven c newman]

Well..I did try to get $20 off....but..he only allowed the 10% the Mall gives...on anything over $40...
