Rare Vintage # 605 1/2 “early” Bedrock Stanley Plane, Used
Maker: Stanley Rule & Level Co, New Britain, CT
A scarce “early” Bedrock series 14” heavy jack plane by Stanley. Plane is a Type 4 produced from 1908-1910. The “early” series of Bedrock planes is characterized by the rounded top of the sides of the plane body, a smaller front knob and the early type of frog used in these planes. April 1995 patent cast into body behind rear tote. Manufacturer’s trademark on iron consistent for Type 4/5 planes (1900-1910). Lever cap is a Stanley BED ROCK used with the Type 4/5 series. This particular example reflects average wear from original use and staining on sides and sole. Estimate that 70% of the original Japanning is intact. Fully functional – iron needs sharpening/honing.
Price: $350
