Will the blades for a Stanley #45 plane fit a Stanley #13-050 plane? I have a 13-050 that I bought inexpensively, but it's missing the fence and all but 1 blade. I've seen a lot of #45 blades on EBay (unfortunately, no fences or fence rods). Thanks.

Seems to be a modern version of the Stanley No. 50....and apparently it uses the same cutters as a No. 45 and the No. 50...
For the old #50 planes without an adjuster the #45 blades are too long. The change in handle design may allow a bit longer blade in the #13-050. From memory Whole earth access sold the #13-050 or a Record version of it. The blades they carried were Record blades. A few of them were bought and used on my Stanley #45s.
Here is an image comparing different plow plane blades:

The top blade is one from my #50. The two in the center are from a Stanley #45. The bottom two are from the Veritas small plow plane.
Tim, if you were a contributor, only $6, you could send me a private message. There is surely and extra blade for a #45 in my shop that could be mailed to you. Then you could let us know if it will work in a #13-050.

I am doing a little business with Martin J. Donnelly to outfit a Stanley No. 45.
I just placed an order for a pair of short rods for it. Total incl. shipping $18.50
Couple months ago I bought the "flat-sided" screwdriver (No. 85 or 86)
for the 45 from them. Believe that was $23+-
Actually, these buys are for the box I'm still working on to house the 45.
Along with the current order I requested pricing on the bottoms and
hollows, rounds & nosing cutters. Will see if this makes the cheese more binding.
This is the last time I will inquire about the following: Whatever happened with/to
the guy who said he had a mother lode of plane parts? I responded to his OP and
sent him a PM and ain't heard nothing.
My guess is he may have had a change of heart. Some of the items in his images indicated he may have had complete tools disassembled among the parts.This is the last time I will inquire about the following: Whatever happened with/to

My recollection is he did mention at least once of the response being overwhelming.
