Rather see them (LN) run a full product line in ductile iron than mess with runs of bronze tools...
Color is pretty meaningless without knowing brands. Even then, no guarantee.
Best bet is sharpening something with them and taking note of the scratch pattern produced.
I just can't spend the mental bandwidth worrying about price increases on tools anymore. They've never been 'cheap' unless you were junk shop prowling two decades ago or better. Either I can afford...
Lie Nielsen everything has been nuts since the 'Vid shutdowns started.
Discontinued stuff was pricey before but is through the stratosphere now. I let go of a 5 1/4 last fall for ridiculous money...
The jointer is a Lie Nielsen, looks like a No. 7.
If they know what they have expect to pay retail or retail+ the way all things LN have been.
If they don't know what they have make them...
Beautiful - all spoken for I assume? Madrone handled one right in my wheelhouse...
For the price the expectation is you not have to spend that kind of time (if any) flattening. Would be on the phone with LN for a replacement.
Still working my way up to something on par with bandits dungeon bench...

Thats rich considering the source.
Stiff bristle brush for the loose stuff
Simple green and a scotch brite pad or 000 steel wool for the staining/gunk
See what you've got after that and assess.
Washitas are a dirty little rabbit hole I've fallen down. Only way to have a reasonable idea what you're getting into is to buy a labeled one which are now stupid expensive. Currently running...
Were I looking at a similar situation I'd be making a cabinet and incorporating a Goldenrod in tandem with oiling/waxing after use.
"Deals" are few and far between anymore. Still a great resource in that it lets you cover a lot of ground from your recliner. If I had to depend on antique shops and yards sales for my want list I...
Never seen a Crescent like that, if it were close and not priced outlandishly I wouldn't hesitate to pick it up just for the fact it has that cast base if nothing else.
This thread is 2 years old and Stan no longer posts here so I doubt you'll be getting an answer out of him. I suspect the information came to him through decades of using and now selling tools.
I want to want one...things I dont need are another 4 size smoother or a 1/2 size gimmick. Give me a 3, 5, & 7 equivalent and I'll open the wallet pronto.
Don't know if they're still made or not, I suspect the delays are Covid 19 related.
I've got an unused No.1 and No.2 I'd be willing to let go of, drop me a line if you want.
Fair enough, makes a lot more sense framed in that manner.
Don't want to start something but you have me curious. From my recollection of previous posts it seems like you're not a big LN guy (which is fine), but that being the case, why would you spend your...
Alright boys, fess up. Who spent $65 on a fob??
I ran across this on the Bay in the daily search for treasures. Threw it on my watchlist figuring I'd spring for $10 - $12, why not. Promptly forgot...
This seems like something to take up with Brent English at Robust. He'd be about the best resource and you paid Robust prices, part of that is for support after the fact. JMO
I've always felt that the nicest 16" - 20" band saw you can get yourself into and a solid 12" planer are the perfect compliments to a Neander focused shop as far as eliminating grunt work is...
I've got Chris Edwards' old 1224 - mostly using it for spindles, boxes, and smallish hollow forms. For that work it is perfect. If I intended to do mostly green bowl turning and pieces pushing the...
Thats not something I would have thought of. I like it, may need to steal the IP for my own use.
