Another red herring reason out of the way........the 110 is the only with it's original box.
Interesting thing about this box is that it states made in Australia. But the plane casting and blade are made in England. Is this normal ?

Not what I was thinking though

Still could be the right tool (neither confirming or denying this ).
One red herring out of the way.

Stu,
Soooo, I might be onto something here.....Is it the 12 1/2 because it is the only one with a wooden base???

Sorry.......not what I was thinking.
The 12 1/2 is officially NOT the odd one out

HINT :
All these planes have ONE thing in common, bar one

The 12 1/2 is the only scraper? blade with a hook? adjustable pitch? wooden soled plane?

I'm trying the scattergun approach

Luban are you up to your second glass of wine already?

Is it the Record shoulder plane as the only non-US made tool?

Fraid not Tom...

The 5, 10, 71, 110 and 130 are also English made.

The 041 is the only Record brand tool there, but it's not what I was thinking.
The answer is far more superficial than that.

Hint 2 : What's in a name....?

*sips some more of his home brew*

A rose by any other name? Something to do with romeo and juliet then,
One of them is a sweetheart?

Wow...that's deep Caliban. I wish I'd thought of that. There is indeed only one sweethart tool (the 12 1/2), but I've already counted that one out.

I almost gave it to you for that

But no, to be fair, that's not what I was thinking.

Here's a list of model numbers if anyone wanted to do some research.
5
10
12 1/2
14
041
71
101
103
113
110
130

I'm full of hints tonight (must be the home brew)

do you get the feeling that Caliban has just set us up to keep this game going another six months?

Can I have my elephant stamp now?

the 71? i don't know why though. everything else has a pair - eg 2 jack planes, 2 rabbet's, 2 adjustable blade angle etc?

i hope its not correct......i don't have any idea of what i would post

thanks
