Gloat: Stanley 71 router plane....

[froglips]

I think I did ok on this one. Got it for $10 off ebay.

For a change, almost no rust and cutter is in good shape. Normally I only by tools that need weeks of work to make them mildly unusable.....

Its missing the depth adjuster, but I can jerry rig that if need be.

No potato water :eusa_doh: for this one! :icon_cheers

Very nice Jim! By the way, you can still purchase the cutters from Stanley. I know because I bought one for mine. Perhaps they have depth adjusters also.
