    WTB # 8 and a # 4 1/2 Plane

    I am looking to buy user planes a # 8 and a # 4 1/2.
    I am not a collector, so I am not looking for any rare planes. The planes should be useable, relatively flate soles and working mechanisms. Yes I am aware that Walt sells these but seems currently out of them.

    If any of you has these for sale I would appreciate an email. vvjk at yahoo dot com.

    Welcome Vijay,
    Rust hunting is the best way to find what you want. Flea markets and farm town antique stores have been a gold mine for me.
    Good hunting

    Want to add that the people I met and the stories I'd get when I told them I was a Neander student were awesome.
    That had to be the best part of the Galoot journey
    PS something about river towns that had a lot of great users
