Got a new addition for my plane collection this week. Went to Asheville, NC, and picked this old transitional plane up at an antique store there. A belated birthday present from my mother in law. It's about 110 years old.

I didn't start out wanting to be a plane collector. These are tools that I use, and each has a special job it does. I've got 8 of them so far. Each has a story.

This was my grandfather's. It's really the peak of the technology of mass production plane making. It's a Stanley Bedrock jack plane. An excellent all around tool. A few years before I inherited this, my brother had given me a modern version of essentially the same plane. That modern version is a really expensive and lovingly built reproduction of the old tool. It keeps everything good about the original and improves on it by machining to finer tolerances and using heavier iron for the cutting edge. It's a really beautiful tool, made by a small company in Maine, and it works really well, but I prefer the one my grandfather used.

This one on top was also my grandfather's. It can get into corners to cut rabbets and tenons, but I've never had much luck with it.
The other one is a modern low angle block plane. It's the one I use the most. |

I can imagine your having wanted to be a highly ornamented collector instead ...

Don't you think that's a bit unkind?
