Please, don’t ever feel like you’re putting me out with a phone call. I am always more than willing to talk tools; it's the brightest parts of my days. Doesn't matter if it's a question about something I have up for sale or just general “ what do I need to do this or what is the proper piece for this plane” type of question. I’m always willing to share what knowledge I have. I’m in the shop from 10am to 5pm EST…so,  feel free to call. 

I do ship internationally, so please contact me about overseas shipping rates....

call or E-mail for availability of tools...they do tend to go pretty quick, first come first served...if you call, please give me a few moments to get to a phone...this place is pretty big..

I am away from a computer/internet connection on the weekends but I check email bright and early Monday mornings..

Tools are graded with a modified Fine Tool Journal scale seen :here: No E-bay surprises here, no cracked castings, no chipped mouths, no defective mechanicals...just good solid users that have been thoroughly checked out for defects...they work like they're supposed to. I buy tools that I would be proud to own...good solid users plus some rather fancy stuff from time to time..

Tools for woodworkers who don’t want to do metalwork. All are tuned and fettled for use: soles are flat, wood is cleaned and waxed, all mechanicals have been tested and lubricated, sides and bed are generally waxed to retard rust and in short…these tools work. No surprises; all castings solid with no cracks, chips, defects. All blades flattened on the back and a solid bevel established…you can use it out of the box but I do recommend giving the bevel a final polish…after all, sharpening is the most important “tool” in your box. . These are tools I would be proud to own...

It’s the end of an era in Connecticut flea markets…Jim Sileo has passed…he will be missed. The first “collectable” tool I bought, I got from Jimmy, long before I knew that there were collectable tools…that’s gotta go back over 40 years and Jimmy was selling stuff for over 20 years before that. If you went to any fleas in the state, more than likely you saw Jim and not just for tools. He seemed to have his fingers in nearly anything you could turn over for a few dollars. I was lucky enough to be able to comb through his storage units a few years back before his health started to fail. I used to help him set up at a local market so I got to help pack the truck (oh yeah-highlight of my day!). He had a brusque sales manner that turned some people off at first but when you got to know him he was a pussycat. I remember one of the first times I dealt with him, getting into an argument over prices…he was giving me a price on a box lot and I wanted only a few things from the box….no deal! All or nothing…I missed out on that but over the ensuing years more than made up for it. If you had a chance to sit with him for a while you found that he had a wealth of stories…a lot I can’t repeat in mixed company and a lot more that would be incriminating in a court of law. He lived in Derby and the one story that I never forgot was one about a run he made to a local factory to purchase their office furniture. It was a local factory that was closing and at the time Jim was selling used furniture in a storefront in town. He gets a call from the office manager to come look at the office stuff so he hustles down to the......wait for it.....the James Swan factory to check it out. As he told it, the back loading dock was filled with 55 gallon drums of scrap metal….you know, scrap metal like chisels, drawknives, brace bits…..all on its way to a local scrapyard. No, he didn’t end up with any of it…I cried....so it goes…’bye, Jim….it was an honor, a privilege and a blast knowing you....

Fancy Sargent stuff

Sargent No. 1507  ¾” “Ladybug” rabbet plane…IOB-In Original Box…box seam split and missing part of one side…but none of that matters because it did it’s job…the plane itself is as close to unused as they come…nickel at 99.9%, full length blade with factory grind on the bevel…sole has no marks whatsoever beyond the tooling marks from the factory…According to David E. Heckel in his book, SARGENT PLANES (Page 65) "The series of rabbet planes (#1506 through #1509-1/2) are some of the scarcest planes produced by Sargent." Ain’t that the truth! This is Sargent's (or anyone’s) most unique design, the Page patent adjustable bull-nose, rabbet plane. There is nothing like this from any other manufacturer at any time, in any country. AKA the "Ladybug" because of its unusual shape (reminds me more of a tick…but that would not have been a good marketing approach)… Sargent made these in several widths and offered each with or without fence and depth stop. The #1507 did not come with either so this one is complete in the box. These planes are very rare (first one of these I’ve found in my 62 years) and when found generally have little if any nickel plating left because of an inferior electroplating process that Sargent used beginning in 1909; depositing a thinner layer of nickel that tended to wear quickly. IMHO, this one’s in museum quality condition….not cheap; but then anything this nice never is…one of a kind…$1300   PICTURE  PICTURE  PICTURE

 

Sargent No. 53 veneer scraper plane…japanning at 95%, near full thickness sole and correctly marked Sargent blade…excellent example of a hard to find scraper plane…$100 PICTURE

Sargent No. 22 Shaw’s patent jointer plane (Stanley 607 size)…the Sargent answer to the Stanley Bedrock plane…frog is adjustable without removing the blade and lever cap…’course to be really honest; it’s a bitch getting a screwdriver in there to loosen the frog screw…little harder than the Bedrock but infinitely harder to find the Sargent version…apologies…2 small holes that previous owner drilled in the left sidewalls (front & back) to add a fence…and small chip off the tote…japanning at 98% and near full length correctly marked blade…very hard to find patent and size…$135   PICTURE   

 

Stanley No. 8 type 7, 1893-1899, japanning at 97% but appears to have been augmented a long time ago...beautiful full length blade is NOS (New Old Stock) from 1909-1912…rosewood low knob & tote (horn of tote has a large sliver off of the left side)…has been only lightly cleaned to determine body integrity and then lubricated…I don’t like to clean these real old ones…solid user jointer…$135    PICTURE
