Our Collection of Vintage Wood Planes

Donna and Andy's collections of antique wood tools.

These antique wood planes are relics of an earlier woodworking era and have a very interesting look and feel. We keep a few on our display shelves among other trinkets lovingly collected over the years. Enjoy!

The infamous Stanley No. 55 Combination Plane

The Stanley "Fifty-Five" Universal Combination Plane.

The round knob mounted to the rear handle vertically adjusts the 55's skate.

(If you're really into vintage Stanley wood planes, serious vintage tool enthusiast Patrick Leach's site is dedicated to nothing else.)

The Record No. 405 Multi-Plane

Our old Stanley "No Idea" plane

It's a Stanley, but it's so old that any model number it may have had must've been worn away, and we can't seem to match its shape to anything online. Do you know which model this is? Tell us!

 

Old and mysterious - we can't quite identify this Stanley's exact model.

 

A Scaitle wooden rabbet plane

This wooden-bodied style of rabbet plane is reminiscent of 18th century designs.

A 'Scaitle' Brand Wooden Rabbet Plane 

Wood shavings are expelled from a simple aperture on right of the stock.

With such a simple design many people make their own replica planes in this style
