    Default spoke shave in Sydney

    Hello All,

    Where can I get a spokeshave from in Sydney ? I dont mean the crappo stanley ones from bunnies - I want one of the old style stanleys or records.

    Flemington saturday flea markets dont have them (well at least one worth buying...)

    any ideas ?

    thanks lads.

    One of the guys I work with is always telling what he bought or saw at the North Rocks markets on Sundays.

    He says there are always lots of old planes, chisels, bowsaws, etc. etc.

    Might be worth a visit?

    Cheers,
    Andrew

    Keep an eye out for #51. This spokeshave has an adjustable mouth, which makes it go from a deep cut to a finishing cut without adjusting the blade position.

    Regards from Perth

    The North Rocks market is run by the Rotary Club of North Rocks (near Carlingford,) It is in the Blind School grounds, opposite K-Mart , in North Rocks Road.

    Well, you've missed this weeks market. I suppose you could just mail-order a new, shiny one from Lee Valley of Lie Neilsen & have it by the weekend if you start now.
