Stanley No. 45 auction buy of the year
« on: July 07, 2016, 06:30:05 PM »
Picked up this plane recently for $5.00 at an auction.  Came with the wood box and one complete set of blades plus some extras.  Picture as it came, has not been cleaned as yet.

I have a $4 story on a 45 from about three weeks ago (grabbed by the guy one step ahead of me) but it was nowhere as complete as this one.
Well played!

Here are the others I picked up at the same auction for $5.00 each.  From left to right.  Stanley #5 14", Sargent #3424 24", Sargent #418 18", Stanley #7 22", Stanley Bedrock #607 22" and another Stanley #5 with corrugated bottom.  I had choice at $5.00 and nobody else bid.  I almost crapped my pants when I realized I was the only bidder.

 six planes selling with choice pick, someone may have thought that you would only take 1 or 2 and they would grab the rest.
