    Same dimension as Stanley?

    NC,

    Yes it is a clone of a Stanley No 4.

    I think I will have to modify the chipbreaker to get it to function properly. There are heaps of faults with this plane. It is now an excersie to getting it to a useable state after all the work in flattening the sole.

    Have you seen the boneyard - trust me - it won't be perfect.
    I just hope I have one for you - not a lot of bones left down there.

    One day in my travels up to see the old man in Kempsey I'll drop in. He's getting to the point he won't be able to drive down anymore.
