Bodied Woodworking Planes




Bronze #112 Type PlaneOversize Bronze #112 Type Scraper Plane   This is a patternmaker made scraper plane fashioned after a Stanley #112 scraper.  It is just about 10" long and much heavier than the Stanley 112 which measures under 8".  It has a thin Disston scraper blade installed, and other than that it is unmarked.  For the collector who wants a one of a kind, or a user who thinks the 112 is too small and too lite.  Ready for the shelf or use.  Different.

Defiance PlaneDefiance Type Plane   The collector loved a mystery.  The body of this plane looks very similar to the Defiance line of planes produced in RI by Seldon Bailey and the Bailey Tool co. of Woonsocket RI.  Leonard Bailey was also involved w/ this outfit when the Defiance and Victor lines of planes were produced there during his time away from Stanley and that story is told in detail in Roger Smiths book PTAMPIA vol. 1 & 2.

While the body is shaped much like a Defiance plane, and the wood has the right shape and age to be from that period, the frog and cutter are totally different from anything seen before on a Defiance or Bailey Tool Co plane. The only marking is on the cutter.   The Moulson cutter in it is the cutter preferred by Leonard Bailey to use in his rare split frame planes.  He also used them in his 3 screw frog planes.   The tag the collector wrote up indicates he was a believer.  The small tag on the side rail indicates I sold it to him in the early 90's.  I sure do not remember it, or where I got it, but that was when I was into a lot of barns and out of the way places on the east coast.  The frog is like a prelateral Stanley product, but the brass wheel is completely different and not marked.  The knurling does not look like 19th century.   As I said a mystery.   Hard to find and probably one of a kind!!

Brass Dental PlaneBrass Dental Plane   I have seen this mini brass plane offered for sale a few times over the years, both at auction and on eBay.  I can not seem to find any published info on it, and I do not think it is in Roger Smiths books.   It is thought that they were made for the dental profession for sizing or trimming of molds.  It is an interesting and nicely made little block plane with ruler increments in 32nds of an inch cast or scribed into the different sides.  The cutter is unmarked, and there is no other ID to be found.  Different, and Unusual.

Walker Patent CuttersWalker Patent Plow Plane Blades / Cutters  These cutters look to be professionally made and you can see on some of them that they were cut from Starrett tool steel.   I have never seen them offered before and I can just imagine what they would cost to have made if you could find the patterns.
