Wow, Mike. Beautiful W-T bandsaw, and a gigantic “you suck” for dropping only a Hamilton for it.

I finally got to have a few quick rust hunts over the last few weeks. Found a Canadian made Stanley No 4 with a rusty SW iron, a No 6, and what I think is a type 12 No 7. Also picked up a Stanley Everlasing chisel with SW markings on it.
The planes…
No 4: $5
Paid $25 for the No 6. More pics to come later.
A few details of the No 7…
If you look close, you might be able to just make out the point of the heart logo…
Iron seems to be bent :( Can that be fixed by a n00b like me or should I replace it? Also, it only measures 2 1/4, possibly the original was replaced by an iron from an old 5 1/2?
Tote needs some love…
Was $35 too much to pay for that?
Here’s the chisel…$15

I picked this up a couple of weeks ago for $120.00. As far as I can tell it has never been used. Now if I could only find some time to play with it.

Vintage Brass side rebate planes for L & R hand use ( Pair ).

Could not resist these handmade tools, they are so beautiful.
Now I need to set them up, so they can become usefull also. ;-)
