Sorry, but I just gave it away to a lucky creeker. Perhaps other creekers will make a similar offer?
I am giving away a 607C Stanley Bedrock plane. This is the first style made with the rounded sides. Patented on Apr. 2, 1895. It has the Bedrock design for the frog bed, and the frog adjust screw that was introduced with this model. It does not have the two frog screws that allow adjusting the frog without removing the blade. (The flat top sided model has those.) This plane was bought more than ten years ago off E-Bay. It was low priced because it was totally covered in rust. And I mean everywhere. There is still pitting noticeable on the plane sides, lever cap, and blade/chipbreaker. One of the frog screws was broken off and the threading damaged. These screws were changed from a 12-24 thread to a 1/4-20 and brass screws put in. This plane has been frequently used since I got it. It has been residing in my tool cabinet. I preferred it over my #6 or #8. Note that this plane has too much damage to be a collector. However, it is an excellent user.
It has a corrugated bottom. Blade has good length, but pitting will need to worked around (or the blade changed. The plane is 22" long. Wood handles are in good shape.
So here's the deal, in the spirit of the season of giving, I will give it free to a new "contributor" to Saw Mill Creek. If you have recently joined or do it soon, you will just need to send me a private message. That way I know you have joined.
The real cost? For a minimum of $6.00 you can join for a year. You can always give more. It's a hell of a deal. Note: All money goes to SMC, I will not make anything.
This is my offer and not affiliated with SMC except that I am a contributing member. Just my way of supporting both SMC and new contributors.
Here are pictures of the plane.
