Good luck picking one up for under $800 that has all of its parts,mis in its original box and doesn’t need a complete restoration. How do I know? I have been collecting and using Stanley planes both privately and in my business for over 35 years. The last one in pristine condition that I found at an auction I stopped bidding on at $1500 and left the room at $1800. They can be had but be prepared to pay through the nose plus there is a steep learning curve in learning to use this baby. I did finally get one by buying 7 different planes and piecing together one complete plane with the addition of 6 extra parts from a friend that makes his living from buying and selling planes and plane parts. It is a joy to use after you get the hang of it.

Thanks! I just picked one up. Good recommendation. You are right. What a wonderful investment

Got mine 2 years ago.

So funny. So true.

How do get ahold of you

I have a few planes that are similar to yours. I sharpen them and use them at various times. I love my woodworking tools very much. I sure enjoyed looking at yours and found them very interesting. Thank you.

#45...I inherited one complete with box and paperwork. Love it. Use it often.

Good afternoon; First of all, I want to congratulate you on the spectacular content! I'm learning a lot from these classes and if I had accessed this content earlier, I wouldn't have suffered so much, making bad choices. Now I'm looking for a Stanley Bailey 5 Type 11/19 planer, for my own use and to start my collection. Do you have one available for sale or could you tell me where I could buy one? I'm in Fortaleza (Brazil).

I thought infomercial customer guy was going to be my favorite character but then mustachioed salesman appeared 😂

Props for all the props!! The production value is no joke, you only get it at justplanefun!! Merry Christmas !!

MJ got comedy

I tried finding the FB group combination plane headquarters and couldn't find it. Do you have a link?

Great info! I don’t know what rock I have been living under but just discovered your channel. I’m going to be catching up on all your videos in the near future. Keep sharing.

Hey mate just watched this vid and very helpful thank you . did you manage to do a more detailed video of the type 9/9alfa I have a type 9 with number 2 under the tote and 2.1?4 under the leaver cap. cheers bud.

Thanks for all the prep you do to make these indispensable type videos. I continually check back for reference, and learn something additional each replay. Great stuff.

I recently gathered up all the hand planes i have accumulated over the years because my son asked how long I have been collecting hand planes. Not a collector.....then realized I have 47 of them OHhhh Crap, I'm a collector.

Drat ! You forgot to talk about all those patternmaker (homemade) brass router planes. Really, they were probably made at work. You have quite a few.

Have a Master Quality No. 78 in my shop...and it matches up with a Stanley No. 78 Sold by Montgomery Wards. It does have the depth adjust lever, BTW: I also have the Craftsman No. 3720..(Sargent No. 79, Type 2) And both have the same nicker design...

Michael, what’s the email for sending you pics about the Sargent 79 plane casting? You never said btw, is there a version of the Sargent casting that has the adjustable lever for the rear blade? Also can solid yokes on Stanley planes be swapped into later split yoke models? Thanks, Jeff🇨🇦🇺🇸

MJ, been trying to fix #4 BR that wasn't retracting enough. Fix was a Yoke replacement, but didn't know how. You're vid helped so much. Thx! Replaced yoke easily and plane now adjusts great. Thx again. BTW, do you know a parts source for Union X-planes?

Go watch Paul Sellers about the whole omg, thick planes are way better,… myth. If you’re getting chatter, sharpen better, he would say… just a counterpoint, Paul’s got about 50+ years of experience to go by… Jeff

Are the solid yolks interchangeable with the split yokes on some type 19/20 planes? Jeff

I’ll go Veritas thanks. Have a nice collection of 4’s. Will keep the type 13 sell the others for cash for a Veritas 5 1/4W. Make a Krenov Jointer for a few longer projects…. Enjoy your videos particularly the #78 series. You don’t mention Record much either… There are tool makers outside the US btw. Cheers, Jeff🇨🇦🇺🇸

Hey Michael, I have a complete #79 Sargent plane but it has no depth adjustment. To be clear not missing just not in the casting. Is there a Sargent version with the depth adjust and if so how must for the casting alone? Cheers, Jeff

Very interesting, thanks. What about those planes made in England, can those be identified by the same indicators? I‘m looking to by one of those 5 1//2 planes. Its frog is of type o-g (suggests type 16+), the lateral adjustment has a horizontal „STANLEY“ stamp on it and its frog adjustment wheel is a brass one. But also the body for have a unique diagonal ribs running from the Tote base to the corners of the body. Any idea on that? Thanks

My 2 Jack planes are an OLD Sargent, and an OLD Worth.

Interesting video. Thanks for sharing. I’ve posted a couple videos on UA-cam where I restore hand planes. I restored a Sargent no. 708 autoset. I love those planes. Another rare hand plane is the Stanley no. 5H or the short version of the 62

Remedy for Stanley 71 made in England model. The veritas cutter is 10 mm longer to the slot of the aduster nut-change the threaded rod in the router body for another 10mm longer. My Record 071 fits the Veritas cutters perfectly.

There is a company selling replacement fence for the 78 rabbet plane. I had a good deal on a 78 with no fence, so I went and got the replacement too, its not original, but a nice cast, mine was a little bit out of square but it was an easy fix on my belt sander.

Are all BR plane frogs the same? Are they interchangeable, e.g. can a #5 frog work on a #4 sized BR? Still trying to figure why my #4 blade can not be fully retracted out of the mouth.

Yer not deducting your income tax bill.

Good video about the components of a rebate/rabbet/fillister plane. Couple of things I don't see in your videos is anything about the blades & getting replacements or their interchangeability between planes or brands. A 2nd point you could add is talking about the depth adjustment lever. I recently acquired a rabbet plane and only discovered the thing was damaged in a subtle but unuseable way...the spur on the adjustment lever which engages with the blade notches had been sheared off by someone who force adjusted the blade depth without loosening the lever cap screw! Fortunately I was able to get a blob of tack welding on there then reshape the lever to working condition again. Something you might want to cover.

Hi. I've got a type 6 Record #4. Its blade does not fully reteact at end of adjustment. Pretty sure blade and cap iron not original. Did Stanely make cap irons differently, such that the cap iron slot is different and therefore making end of travel different? Thx!

Thanks, MJ, I am enjoying your information and presentation. I have an old stanley number 5 body (includes the frog) that I can't identify the type. It has two patent dates, both ending in "'02." The sole is corrugated. There is a large v-shaped rib on the back end of the plane that points towards the front of the plane. I think that this is near the type 9 style, but I can't find any pictures of or references to bodies with the big v-rib. Thanks for any help that you can provide.

Lots of questions about the 10 1/2. I thought mine was complete but didn’t work well. I now realize ( and thought prior to this video) I have the wrong chip breaker and blade.

Did Stanley originally put on the sweetheart decal on the totes?

Ask.them if they want a stanley 55? ❤

I bet your missing alot of screws for depth.

Do you buy tools? 😅 i got a 55

@8:33 5-1/4 bought mine for 30$ it's amazingly well made

3:52 oh, we’re doing this old carpenters tale. 4:24 oh please, this is getting ridiculous. 4:48 ok, you got me! That’s pretty funny

3:26 sudden urge to put a Holtie, Lazarus, or HNT Gordon in your hands

0:59 WHAT?! People do that? I will only rarely use vinegar, and when I do, it is specifically to strip electroplate, and it only takes 5 minutes in a 50/50 mix of 30% vinegar and 12% peroxide, followed by a clean water dunk

I just finished watching this video, and I found it very informative. I bought a Stanley plane years ago at a swap meet, and never used it until just recently.To my surprise I discovered that it was a # 4 Type 7. I love old tools so now I also have a # 5 Type 6, and I'm looking forward to more planes in the future. It's good to know that people like you are making these tools and their history available to woodworkers. Thanks!

My No.45 came with the set of cutters shown in this video. Did Stanley offer additional cutters in different profiles for purchase separately? If so have you done a video on them? 🙏

is that a #12-20 UNS thread?

I HAVE RESTORED GUNS THAT WERE PITTED, IT IS CALED MICRO WELDING. IS THIS POSSIBLE TO REPAIR DAMAGE ON A PLANE WHERE IT IS THIN, LIKE THE MOUTH.

I MET A MAN THAT WORKED FOR STANLY, HE CALLED THE GROVES IN A PLANE AS PITCH GROVES, AND JIM SAID IT WAS A SALES GIMIC. WORKING WITH WOOD WITH PITCH IT WAS A PLACE FOR IT TO GO, KEEPING THE PLANE ON THE WOOD, IT WAS NOT FOR MAKING THE TOOL LIGHTER.

NEED PARTS FOR A 78, FENCE AND ROD, DEPT GUAGE ABD BOLT, HATE HAVING AN INCOMPLET TOOL.

Union guy here, most X-planes are uncommon, with the X5 being probably the most common of them. The X0(#1 size) and X2 being rare. There are scarce sizes, meaning i might see one for sale in a year, but otherwise uncommon suits them. Currently there is an increase in demand for them that pushes the price up.
