A couple of the corrugated stanley planes are worth more 5 1/4C, No.2C, No.10C and No.10 1/4C. Since you guys are showing off your planes I'll show some good corrugated ones. 5 1/4C and two No.2C planes. Also here are a few I have trapped inside my house.Originally Posted by Fred Gross

Clint, I swear you're such a plane j@ck@$$ ...and I mean that in the highest form of respect possible, seriously I do as a matter of fact I hope to be able to do the same some day. The only consolation I have is I know that those aren't all $5.00 yard sale finds but none-the-less you still suck.

ADDITION: I especially love that 5 1/4C...I drool every time I see it (which seems to be often for some reason)

The slope is slippery indeed. After I got to 100 planes I just stopped counting. I do have to PAY for some and some I get dirt cheap.I have to say there have been some nice planes in this post. I like the ones with LN's because I have none only lowly Bedrocks that I use (Wouldnt have it any other way)!Since I am a plane J@ck@ss here is a picture of the little guy for you to chew on.

I love it when people put up pictures holding their number 1s. I've never even seen one let alone held one and it's still a little mind boggling just how little they really are.

It doesn't hurt to have the boxes, either.

I came across one with the box, but the gentleman wanted more than I was willing to spend

Hey Gary, that is quite a haul. Does it qualify you for inclusion on Tom Lie-Nielsen's personal Christmas card mailing list?

Nice collection, Gary. I'm not there, but maybe someday! I have to sneak them into the house, one at a time.
SWMBO: What's in the box this time, dear?
Me: Oh, just something I needed to complete a project. (sneaking off to the shop)

Man, you guys got a real $$$ tied up in those LN's
A question...... Are the LN's superior to the Bedrock series of planes? I've been looking for a nice 604 1/2 for some time now but it seems that $300 is about average which is the price of the LN's.
Keep those pics coming! I'd also like some storage ideas....

The significant problems we encounter cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.
The penalty for inaccuracy is more work

Probably going to insult some Bedrock owner's, but the LN is a much better plane. The castings are stronger, better quality and machined better. In addition, a Stanley plane iron & chip breaker is no where in the same league as a LN. Also, I think you can now get a HAF for the LN 4 1/2.
P.S. I have owned/own and used both planes. The above is my opinion based on my experience with the care and feeding of both.
