Thread: Carter version of a Stanley 10...Anybody know what their worth ?

Don't know about the particular model you are speaking about, but I got a Carter No7 from the bloke across the road for $20.00 and once I flattened the sole and tuned it up it works a treat.

I reckon about 1/2 the Record version of the stanley 10 price (off the hans brunner site) would probably be too much.
I think it is the collectors that push the Stanley price up, most other 'mass production' planes are not worth too much. Can you do a search on ePay for ended items?
Record 10 in "near new" (it is, I've seen it) condition http://www.hansbrunnertools.gil.com....Planes%202.htm

Thanks Clinton,

That record looks like it all right.

I don't know how to search ended items.

Next week, I'll just put a low bid on it and see what happens.

I can't help with the ePay "ended items search", can't use ePay where I am at the moment :mad: , and I'd have to take a look to figure it out. Others seem to use it, so it must be available in the advanced search options.

Have you thought about using a No7's blade, grind it down and grind down a No. 4's body?

I guess you are more into picking the Carter up so you have a rebate plane, more than anything? They (the rebate plane) seem to be pretty limited in use, and your combo plane's would be heaps better?

Stupid question coming :

Whats E-pay ?.....I know what E-bay is ...at first I thought e-pay was just a typo for e-bay, but then you just wrote it again ...??? Is it like another kind of e-bay ? I just now made a google search and the impression I got was it was a just a payment system....bit confused on that.

oh, I don't really want another rebate plane. I've got a couple of the normal 78 things. I was just curious really. Thought, uno, maybe I could get a unusual plane cheap, thats maybe really worth quite a bit..... but truthfully not really that interested in it.

Never tried cutting down a no.7 blade and #4 to make one.....know anybody who has ? ..... have made a couple of failed experiments on #4's in the past, that I'd prefer to forget

Just being smart, and I picked it up of Bodgy - Ebay makes you pay and pay and pay... so ePay geddit?
