Item P26 - Stanley No. 13 Circular Plane. Type 2 (1871 – 1878).
Stanley’s
first circular plane, it remains an interesting one to use since the front and
back of the sole are adjusted independently. It can work both concave and
convex surfaces. This example is an early one, have Leonard Baily patents
marked on the cap iron and blade adjustment knob. The sole is affixed to the
body with twelve slotted screws, dating it prior to 1878. Much of the japanning
is gone from the outer side of the body (as is usual in these planes). The
blade is long and clean, and the sole is without pitting. With just a little
cleaning it will do well as a user or as part of a collection. Good+
