Hello,
This is my first post here - I have enjoyed lurking for a few months now as I have been thinking about tooling up for a woodworking hobby.
There is a listing on my local craigslist for a "Vintage Stanley Plane". That is all the information given. It looks to me like a shoulder plane but I could be wrong. I do want quality tools - that is important, but I like the idea of some older fixer-uppers to add some nostalgia.
I'm more or less just trying to get a feel for what other people see and find potential in on the used market.
Anybody here know anything about this by looking at the picture? Is it worth $10? Could this be restored to a quality tool (barring any major defects not visible in this picture)?
I attached an image of the plane.
Thanks!
