      If you like that one, be sure to tune into the next one. I’ll be covering some other scarce parts and planes that we don’t see everyday. Probably not super valuable stuff but definitely less common than our highly ubiquitous Stanley planes

      The No4 1/2H has since made its way to Norway and the No140 went to its new home as well.

    Must have been so tempting just to give the 4 1/2H a quick clean to remove the dirt off it. It looked so much better after the furniture change.

    Nice planes MJ, I have never actually seen the 4 1/2 H before, but I do have a rather nice 140 type 1. Thanks for sharing.

      @justplanefun  11 місяців тому

      Prior to this I had only ever seen them in pictures. Maybe someday I’ll get lucky and find one in the wild.

    Wonder what Stanley's concept for the 4 1/2H plane> More heavy duty or just more weight.

    • @justplanefun
      @justplanefun  11 місяців тому +1

      What I’ve heard / read is they wanted to compete with the heavier infill
      planes, especially in Australia and England. I didn’t mention that in the video because I don’t have a source to cite, but the theory makes sense

    MJ, on a totally different topic, after watching this video with you grabbing the matching replacement screws for the 140. Did you ever do a video on the various screws and taps used on Stanleys.
    Would make a cool video.

    • @justplanefun
      @justplanefun  11 місяців тому

      If you scroll thru my #shorts, I’ve covered some here and there. 12-20s for the bench plane soles and 10-28s for a number of specialty planes. Feel free to message me on FB messenger or email me at jplanefun@gmail.com and I can point you in the right direction

    The iron on that made me think of a question I wanted to ask...
    I've got a #4 with hammer marks on the top. Someone appears to have been using an adjustment hammer on a Stanley #4. Can someone please give me a good reason why?

    • @justplanefun
      @justplanefun  11 місяців тому +1

      The most likely scenario is that it was used as a chisel, probably outside of the plane. That *seems to be the consensus among most hand plane enthusiasts. Someone doing their thing, planing along and then they needed to do some action (lord only knows what) that required a chisel - rather than get one out, they opted to pop the iron out of the plane and proceeded to smash the top of it with a hammer.
      As abhorrent as that sounds, it’s a more plausible explanation than someone attempting to adjust it with a hammer while the iron was still in the plane.

    Pretty cool tools! Looking at what you have in stock is also really cool! Do you have a lever cap for a 220? I look forward to your next video. New shed arrives tomorrow.

      I should have some options for no220 lever caps. Shoot me a text tomorrow and I’ll send some pics

    I just got a new plane today and try to identify it type
    It got raised ring,APR-19-10 but no made in USA casting and no size casting in front of it. What type is it 13.5???
    Can you help me please 🙏.

    • @satan101101
      @satan101101 11 місяців тому

      And it got plain lever cap too, maybe someone changed it before.

    • @justplanefun
      @justplanefun  11 місяців тому

      I’ve heard of this anomaly and I’ve seen pics but I haven’t seen one in person. Are you interested in selling it by chance?
      To answer your question though, this isn’t something that’s covered by the type study as it’s not very common

    So how much is that beauty worth then? (4½H)

    • @justplanefun
      @justplanefun  11 місяців тому

      I don’t really know. I think so far the new owner is into it for about $750 or so. Based on my experience, they’re more scarce than a No1, and they often have a price tag to match!
