English & Scottish Infill Planes




Spiers  Infill Closed Handle Panel PlaneSpiers AYR Walnut Infill Closed Handle Panel Plane  This 14"  Infill Panel plane is marked as to maker with a bold stamp on the gunmetal lever cap.  The cutter is marked but hard to make out, and the chip breaker is a Mathieson.  There is enough of a graphic on the cutter that someone better versed will recognize the maker.  The throat is nice and as fine as any English Mitre Plane.  It is in very nice condition in all respects.  The chamfered or bevel edge of the steel sides which are dovetailed to the bottom is a great feature.  There is no pitting or rust and this plane was carefully polished at one point and that still looks great.  There is one small repair to the infill that can be seen in the pics at the rear corner.

2 Infill Mitre Planes2 Infill Mitre / Rebate Planes   Here are a super nice pair of small English / Scottish Rebate / Mitre planes.  The one on the right is marked on the nose, and you can make out Glasgow, but not much more.  I believe it is a Mathieson but that might not be right..  Note the chamfered edges, and the finish details that went into this planes makeup.   The throats on both are perfect and very close.     Hard to find!!

Brass Infill Mitre / Rebate PlanesBrass Infill Mitre / Rebate Plane by Lie Nielsen   I have been told, and have seen reference to this being a plane kit that Lie Nielsen put out back in the 80's.  That would be about right considering all of the Lie Nielsen planes I have for sale came from one collector who was most active in the 80's and early 90's.

The tolerances, fine finish and craftsmanship leave no doubt as to the makers skill in finishing this off.  It is not signed or marked anywhere.  The wedge fit is as tight as possible and yet slides in and out as though machined.   The opening at the throat is as fine and straight as one could ask for.  As fine a piece of plane making as I have ever seen.
