Well today I "ran into" an estate sale as I was running errands. Decided to check it out for hand tools. This is whatI picked in the condition that I bought them at. The planes are now undergoing initial cleanup in WD-40. There is a fair amount of rust, but the base metal is very sound with hardly any rust pitting. The block plane is a Stanley & at this time I don't know what make the other is. If any of you know, plwease letme know. I paid atotal of $3.00 for the both of these. Yes that number is correct - three dollars!
The wood measures 4" x 10" x 6' 6" each. They are "very old", well aged as the previous owner had kept it in his shed for many, many years & very heavy. There are some cracks, some sand on the surfaces (that I hosed off) & one has a couple nails in it that I'll remove. One is hickory, the other is walnut. I paid atotal of $12 for the both of them, youp that'd twelve dollars.
I'm excited about cleaning up the planes & wood & processing them through my shop to see what is there.
Picctures of the wood is in the next post.
