Hi Folks- I posted a small update this evening. I spent Sunday night watching the Superbowl and matching blades to some plow planes that came in lately. These plows are all in good working order with blades that have been test-fit to each plane. I'll post more this week as time allows. Thanks for stopping by. --Josh
Hey- do you or someone you know work at Intuit? I've been having enormous problems with Quickbooks lately and can't contact a human who can escalate a case or open a bug. If you know someone who can help, please reach out.

This is an unusual saw. It has a thicker plate than normal. The teeth have a lot of set. It has a good with the leap frog logo.

Usable Set of English Hollows and Rounds
$695
New Item This Week
This is a set of 18 planes, nine pairs in even sizes 18-2. All of the planes but one was made by George Buck, the London planemaker working dates 18520-1895. These are high quality planes with York pitch blades, slightly skewed at about 5 degrees. Some of the planes have seen sunstantial use and have moderate wear. I've inspected them all to confirm they all remain usable today. The blades are in good shape, but not maintained. They will need the expected shaping and honing. Sizes and a brief summary of each pair follow. 18 & 16- near-perfect with minimal wear. 14 Near-perfect, noting a chip in the mouth of the round. 12 excellent- minimal wear. 10 excellent moderate wear. 8 very good, moderate wear, hollow has a short blade and a crack in the wedge that could easily be glued. 6- very good moderate wear. 4- very good, moderate wear, small chip missing in the usual spot on the non-escapement side of the round. 2- Hollow both excellent.

Griffiths Steel-Toed Coffin Smoother
$55
New Item This Week
This is a high quality plane made by Griffiths in Norwich. It's 8in long with a 2 1/4in wide blade. It's fitted with a steel toe piece, an option offered by several British planemkaers in the 19th century. The blade is a beautiful Marples double iron with all of its length and no pitting. If you want to use this you'll need to do a little work- the body has shrunk a bit, or been worn from use, so that the steel toe is proud of the rest of the sole. A few minutes with a file or float will have it even with the rest of the plane. It will make a fine worker for certain. $55
English Steel-Toed Handled Coffin Smoother
$45
New Item This Week
This is a high quality plane, clearly British, but lacking a maker's mark. It's 9in long with a 2 1/4in wide blade.

It's a very usable plane and quite pretty. $45
Scarce English Strike Block Plane
$50
New Item This Week
This is a high-quality plane made by Varvill in York. It's an unusual plane and seldom seen. It's bigger than it looks in the photos, measuring 10in long, 3 1/8in wide with a 2in wide single iron bedded at a low angle. The plane has moderate wear but is still usable. Whelan's book has pages on this plane, some of which is conjecture. It's clear that the plane could be used normally or, thanks to the lack of a tote, upside-down held in a vise. It's one of the few examples I've seen of this sort of plane $50

It comes with a set of three blades in roughly 3/16in, 7/16in, and 5/8in widths. It's one of the best wooden routers I've found. I've never seen one with a set of blades like this. $95

Interesting Koch Patent Indicator
$20
Recently Reduced Price
This machinists indicator was made and patented by Henry Koch of Nyack, NY. The design was patented July 17, 1906. It's an interesting concept that allows both the plunger on the front and the radiused post on the rear to be used to move the indicator needle. This would allow it to be used as a standard indicator as well as an inside indicator. The top plate slides off easily exposing the internals. It still works well. It's mounted to a lathe tool post and comes in a custom-fit box. I don't think it would replace my vintage Starrets, but it's a really interesting tool. $20

$30
Recently Reduced Price
This plane cuts a more curvy than normal quirk ogee and bevel measuring 2in wide by 1 1/4in deep. It was made for M.H. Webster, a Detriot, MI hardware store which operated from 1837-1858. The plane has some wear from use but remains in very good condition overall. The blade is long and clean. If you want to put it to work it will require some work to match the blade to the sole due to the plane body shrinking with age a bit. $30
