Gage planes included transitional and metal planes from size G3 to G7. Metal planes came with flat or corrugated soles. G rading Tools With the ever increasing popularity of buying tools without inspection i. Clarence Blanchard of the Fine Tool Journal came up with a solution that seems to be universally accepted.

The letters stand for a fairly complex definitions like: is the tool useable, has it been repaired, how much of the original finish is intact and so on? One of those put-it-in-that-drawer-things a guy with a beard and glasses inevitably will come up with.

It's a great system but it doesn't really work to compare tools from different sellers. All one seller can do is use the grading as comparative means to let you know the variances in the condition of his tools.

The next seller might have far less experience and use altogether different standards. G unmetal Often confused with gleaming steel, especially in English infill planes.

Understandable if you think about Winchester rifle barrels. Think further back to those bronze cannons. That's gunmetal, an alloy of copper, tin and zinc.

Used in some Stanley planes, all of them rare and expensive! H andyman planes. H andy y feature Name given to finger grips i. If the box is as good as the plane it can easily double the price. I have found that a lot of dealers and collectors think the box automatically increases the value of the tool - regardless of condition. This might be true for the rarer models - for all others it's better to buy a good plane without box than an average plane in a box J apanning Obviously originates from Japan and describes a glossy, highly polished finish derived from natural resins, usually with a black background, found on many Japanese objects.

A more recent version includes the use of linseed oil and asphaltum, still used to preserve etched plates but with more warnings on the label than your child's teddy bear. When you read: fatal when swallowed on a bottle you have to be really keen to brew up a new coat for your Stanley jointer! Some tool guys swear by the use of linseed oil repeatedly burned into the plane then polished. Why bother, there are perfectly good paints available in cans.

I assume it's the constantly poor results of these re-japanning attempts that keeps the alchemists trying. I don't mind re-painted tools.

A paint job might interfere with the sensitivities of many collectors but never slowed down a jointer in the hands of a craftsman. Finish on planes is often estimated in percentage points. The simple design of the early types doesn't work - if you like a knuckle joint cap go for the later models.

During WW2 the use of nickel was restricted as nickel was appropriated for the war effort. During this period Stanley used japanning on parts that traditionally were nickel plated.

Replating is not easy because the electroplating process requires at least a basic electrolysis set-up. I was told that dry nickel plating i. Some of the commercial outfits that chrome plate car parts handle nickel as well and they might replate your plane for a relatively small fee.

If you want to go down that path make sure you don't plate any screws, screw threads or any other opening for depth stops, rods etc. Re-plated parts won't fit any more. If the plating is flaky, rusty and ugly remove it all and polish the tool.

It will look almost as good as plated. N ickel plated trimmings In Stanley jargon nickel plated trimmings include lever cap, depth adjuster nut and front knob.

Typically red or dark brown with black streaks running through the grain. Sometimes the streaks form attractive patterns. Variegated rosewood with light and dark patches is also very attractive. If I remember correctly Cuban and Indian rosewood was used by Stanley.

Some "modern" Brazilian rosewoods are good matches but hard to find because of import bans. S alesman's samples A nasty virus developed by antique dealers and spread over the internet, labels everything under 6 inches as salesman's sample and worth a mint!

Salesman's samples do exist but usually are in the form of display units etc. No, the Stanley 1 was not manufactured as a salesman's sample but it's quite likely that a Stanley salesman could have carried one with him.
