Thread: Fix for Fat Stanley 92?

  1. #16
    Instead of buying that Stanley, why not look at the Lee Valley shoulder plane? It's a much nicer plane and it will come to you well made. It's more expensive but worth it.

    I had a Record shoulder plane that was a copy of the Stanley and I sold it when I got the LV one. The LV was much nicer to handle.

    Oops! as I said,
    My math may be wrong,
    Even if the error was the lesser amount, it would be something to return.

    Too bad there isn't a customer service department to send you a new blade of the proper size.

    It must be a random thing. On Amazon, you can see reviews from people who are mad because the blade is WIDER than the body.

    I gave up and ordered a Woodriver.
    Cry "Havoc," and let slip the dogs of bench.

    I was socially distant before it was cool.

    A little authority corrupts a lot.
