$58.000 and counting -6 hrs left- I wonder what the price will reach to on this one?

It closed at $65,656! :eek: Wonder if it will actually get used or just be a collection/museum piece?

For those playing along at home, item nbr 200086511280 on that auction place.

So $2000 for a hand plane isn't unreasonable? ;-)

Google provided some interesting reading, this one was good http://www.uphill.f9.co.uk/pages/old_machines/goyen.htm. Not my area of interest, but cool nonetheless. Only 11 known to exist, it would be interesting to know the provenance of this one.
