Antique & Collectible The Stanley
Rule and Level company was formed in the late 1850's and began their business
producing a line of folding rules and general hardware in New Britain Conn..
Levels came next, and a few years later they
got into the woodworking plane making business producing a line of metal
bodied planes utilizing Leonard Baileys Patents and designs for metal bodied
bench planes and scrapers. The Stanley Rule and Level Company spent a lot of time and effort developing a market and filling the need or demand of early craftspeople wanting top quality tools. Stanley woodworking planes were designed for use in a wide range of applications in many different trades as well as those typically associated with woodworking or cabinetry. They produced specialty planes aimed at cabinet makers, patternmakers, butchers, electricians, and more to fill this need. Stanley Rule & Level Co. and the tools they made had a great reputation  way back when. The Stanley name imprinted on a tool was synonymous
with quality and high standards for close to 100 years and they dominated
the market with their line of fine woodworking planes and other
carpentry related tools.
These vintage & antique woodworking as well as their other
vintage tools are a favorite with both users and collectors
today.
I try to offer vintage tools by Stanley and other vintage makers in nice condition, and if there are major detractions I will let you know or the pics will tell the story. Vintage tools by other makers or even those made by Stanley and marketed by other firms will be found both on this page and on other pages on this site. If you are looking for something specific use the search feature found on the right, or ask as I may have it or can point you toward it.
