Vintage tool parts for swap or for sale

I need a part for a vintage plane I cleaned up for use in my shop. Despite an extensive internet search, I cannot find the part.

I am certain I am not the only hand tool user who has encountered this dilemma. I am equally certain I will need another part some day.

Therefore, I introduce this blog. I hope it can be a valuable resource for us hand tool maniacs to look, find, buy and/or swap parts.

  1. Stanley planes and parts

    I have a Stanley #8 Jointer plane. The plane iron is a "Sweetheart Canada" model.

    It is quite unusual. First, it is painted with the John Deere Yellow (tote and knob and lever cap) and green (bed). Also, it is stamped "imperfect on the side.

    Does anybody know of similar planes. I did a google search and found a John Deere emblazoned block plane for sale on eBay. I found nothing else.

    This is only a guess; Could this have been an old marketing ...
