Stanley, Millers Falls, Sargent and other branded or badged planes are all good.
My suggestion to those who are rehabbing planes for their own use is to stay with one brand if possible. It will be easier to keep the parts sorted.
A friend of mine so far has at least 4 different brands of planes and is always having confusion about what part goes where.
