Can someone tell me where I can get the small wishbone shaped piece for a Stanley No 7 jointer?
Thanks in advance

First person that came to mind. There are other restorers that frequent the forum, at least one is in Melbourne....I think.
You might find a Stanley plane of similar age and size and get the yoke off that.
Or you could just wait untill a forum member says "I've got one of those in a box of junk".
Which I have.......but we'll wait till someone closer to you puts their hand up.
:)
What model/era is the plane?

They are selling some of the origional blades, and a few planes!

Rob,
are you wanting the cast iron adjuster yolk that engages the brass depth adjuster wheel?
If you do, I have a couple and you are welcome to have one if you like.
I see from your webpage you are in Eaglemont. Not too far from where I am, near Ringwood.
Bring it over and make certain the one we chose fits, they have slightly different shapes through the years they were made.
Regards,
Peter

Lignum 6th December 2010, 08:37 PM Good stuff Peter:2tsup:
LGS 6th December 2010, 08:40 PM Just to let everyone know, I am going to Peter's place on the weekend to get the wishbone. Thanks to everyone.

Lignum 14th December 2010, 11:33 AM Did you get the wishbone?
LGS 14th December 2010, 01:12 PM Hi Lig, Yep, Peter had just what I was looking for. While I was there, he showed me how to use a two legged parser (Untitled Document (http://www.watchman.dsl.pipex.com/two-legged%20parser/parser.html)) to drill square, shield or any shape really in wood for placing metal or ceramic or whatever makers marks.

Great to meet and have a chat with another forum member, especially one making things!
For those interested in the parser / passer
Here is a web-page on the Two Legged Parser (http://www.petermcbride.com/parser) I made earlier this year.

Peter
PS thanks for the plank of redgum Rob, still thinking what to make with it.
