I am looking for a few plane parts for some restoration jobs. A Carter No.4 cap iron and lever cap and for a Stanley No.3 a lever cap and a cutter iron. Also a cutter iron for a Stanley 60 or 60 1/2. I'm not having much luck on eBay. Any body have anything surplus to their needs?
thanks for any help or suggestions.
P.S. I just saw a post by "Soundman" {from 2005) saying that some of the Carters require a short cap iron. I think that may be my problem - the cutter iron will not retract fully, i.e. fully retracted it is still protruding about 1.0mm beneath the sole.
Regards.
