Stewart Spiers Panel Plane 24 (15.5")
Hi,
I have recently bought a whole bunch of planes and restored them. Amongst them was this Stewart Spiers plane. I don't think I am going to use it much although it works fine as far as I tested it. Have not sharpened the blade completely yet though.
However I am not planning to get into collecting planes, but aquire the ones I can use for my projects. So I am thinking of selling this for the right price and invest the money in others. I did some research, but it is hard to nail down the value it should go for. It seems that anywhere between $450 and $700 looking at various sources and current ebay.
Anyway is there anyone interested here? I am also happy to swap it against a decent Stanley #45 or #46 mostly complete. I guess trading it for a #55 is a bit of a stretch, although that would be the best.... I don't mind some restoration work as I enjoy that too.
For this plane I did not do anything else to it other than polishing off the steel and brass or gunmetal. I cleaned the wood with some fine steel wool and waxed the whole thing to protect it.
Let me know any thoughts and advise is appreciated.

Hi Cklett,
I'm interested and as luck would have it I'm Brisbane based.
I have several planes that you might be interested in as part or full payment - 45, 46 and 55...
Happy to have a chat to discuss.. PM sent.
