Does anyone know any thing about Gage Planes. I have convinced my wife that collecting old tools is a good investment :eusa_danc .This weekend I was at a flea market and found a Gage 4C to add to my collection....er investment. Except that it was made by Stanley, I can't seem to find out much about them. It is in good shape except for a cracked handle. after a clean up and sharpening the strange looking thing actually works. The only markings on the body are "patent applied for" and "No. 4". For $25 I couldn't pass it up. Any info would be appreciated.
