Sturnella Toolsworks Infill Smoother Kit $120 (plus S&H) SOLD!
I purchased this kit about 10 or so years ago and can’t see myself getting around to starting it. It comes with the cast bronze body, cast bronze lever cap, threaded knob, and Hock Iron. The kit itself without the iron was about $120 when purchased new. If I remember correctly, the iron was another $50. I can meet locally, or we can figure out shipping. I believe this can all fit comfortably in a USPS flat rate box. I believe that is about $15. I’m asking $120 (plus S&H).
Lee Valley Small Scraping Plane $100 (plus S&H) SOLD
I bought this and hardly used it. I mean, look at it! It looks BRAND new. I used this when I was making some handles for my saws and can attest to it’s usefulness. But I have a ton of card scrapers and several other scraper planes so this doesn’t get used as much. I’m asking $100 (plus S&H). These planes sell for about $154 on the Lee Valley website. So, this is a nice bargain. If you pick it up locally you can avoid the shipping costs. If you want shipping, I’d probably ship it in a medium flat rate box (which is about $15) because I would add a ton of padding to protect it.
Lee Valley Side Rabbet Plane $100 (plus S&H) SOLD!
Another plane I bought for a project that never materialized. Other than taking it out of the box, cleaning it, and then giving it a coat of wax, I never used it. The blades still have their factory grind on them. I’m asking $100 (plus S&H). These planes sell for about $150 on the Lee Valley website. So, this is a nice bargain. If you pick it up locally you can avoid the shipping costs. If you want shipping, I’d probably ship it in a medium flat rate box (which is about $15) because I would add a ton of padding to protect it.
I accept Paypal or cash (if we meet locally). Shipping is CONUS Only (sorry, no international shipping).

1/28/24 - One more price reduction before it goes back on the shelf - $25
These are parts from a Jacobs 33B chuck that I recently disassembled. I have the 3 jaws, split ring and outside sleeve – all seem to be in good condition. I would prefer to sell as a lot and not split them up. I think these jaws would work for any 33 chuck variation – and maybe others. Let me know if you have questions or would like additional pictures.
Looking to get $75 plus shipping but, as always, I am open to reasonable offers.
My current outfeed table is large, has drawers and does double duty as a router table and storage. Space is getting tight and I am thinking about downsizing, but I still need a outfeed table... Any good ideas out there for such a thing?
This is a ball end handle that came from the table raiser assembly of a Delta 17” drill press but is likely used in many other applications. I believe the part number is ddl-160C. It is 4-1/2” long and has a ½” bore with a set screw. The small arm spins.
I have a Cutler Hammer bulletin 9101 switch that needs a different heater. Looking for a Cutler Hammer H21 6.4 Amp heater. Needs to be the same configuration as the picture below.
I have been hunting for router planes for a long time, but as you may know the price of metal ones are skyrocketing, the wooden ones are not cheap either and usually lack proper setting mechanism. Some pure metal planes with beech like handles started to circulate not very long ago on eBay, but they look very odd and have very high price as well. However, before Christmas Aliexpress dropped an offer in my mailbox, with this cuteness at a bargain price of 31 USD for it. For that price, I could not let it go:

It reminded me of the little Veritas ones, so it caught my attention right away. I worried about the build, though. But after it arrived, I can say it is a surprise.
To understand why, let me describe what I had so far: very long ago I purchased a Record No. 71 with 2 cutters. It was one of my biggest tool disappointments. If you insert the cutter bits and tighten everything, the sole and cutting edge of the bit is not parallel with the sole. Either the bit is not true, or the machined square notch to receive the bit is not proper. Or both. Moreover it has an adjustable piece at the front that acts as a sole under the arch. That is not level with the sole either. Maybe the hole of the sole bit is not in right angle, or the sole bit is not true. So the whole stuff is resting on my shelf for 13 years waiting to be remachined. The only reason I did not sell it because it was only 30 USD back then and now it is too expensive.
But this little gem from Aliexpress: it is nice, feels good to the touch, nicely machined and painted, and the bit is flush. The adjuster mechanism has some kind of looseness when not fastened, I guess that thing is much tighter in a Veritas plane or a Lie Nielsen. But apart from that it is a very nice tool. It is cold now here, so still did not try it, but I tried it on a piece of wood held in my hand in the room, and it did cut even that way, too. The only weak point may be the fastener, that is a screw and its thread hole, that may get dull after a while, but who cares I take a slightly bigger screw and recut the hole. If it ever happens.
If it works long term the Record no 71 will be on auction that is sure.
I have purchased several hand tools and woodworking jigs from them for the past few years and have really liked what I received for the most part. I just received a Katz-Moses KM-17 Pro router plane plus the smaller cutter assortment and a 7-piece anodized aluminum setup gauge set that I am over the top with how well each of these tools look and perform. I was wondering if anyone else here has made any purchase, what was good or if it turned out to be a dud.
