Anyone in need of a Stanley #5 Jack plane?

Post by Kevin in California » Thu Nov 29, 2018 3:25 pm

If someone is interested, I have a couple of these to sell in usable, but un-restored condtion.
They are vintage...1940 and older.
Let me know, and I will post some pictures.

Prices probably around $50 plus the shipping, but maybe a little less.

Thanks

Kevin

Likely the same Dave. Do you have a old one?

I will check it out, thanks.

I do need something a bit longer for shooting purposes; the #5 works pretty well but a 7 or 8 would be a bit better. I'm keeping my eyes open for one on c/l. No flea markets up here in the wilds...
