Lie Nielsen #212 Scraper PlaneLie Nielsen #212 Scraper Plane The #212 is a hard to find scraper plane by Stanley.  It was dropped from their line in the mid 30's and has been known to bring over $1000 on the market today.  I can remember when fly rod makers drove that market when that hobby took off with classes around the country.   That was years ago and there just were not enough around and the prices rose even higher if you could find one.  Lie Nielsen introduced this plane many years ago, but by then the common wisdom, and shear demand made the Stanley 9 1/2 block plane the new plane of choice for many rod makers.  Lie Nielsen still touts this plane as being well suited to the task, and I am sure it is and works well for that or other applications!!  This is NOS and in the original box.

NOS / EXC. . . . . . . .$175.00       SOLD!






Lie Nielsen Toolworks L-N 212 Scraper PlaneLie Nielsen Toolworks L-N 212 Scraper Plane  Nice!! Great Patina on a 30 some year old scraper plane.

Fine . . . . . $325.00        SOLD!!







Lie Nielsen # 140 Skew Block Plane Lie Nielsen # 140 Skew Block Plane Stanley stopped making its version of this skew block plane back during WWII.  Lie Nielsen reintroduced the basic idea with a major improvement being the addition of the fence.   Stanley's skew block plane idea was and is very popular w/ users, and this version by Lie nielsen w/ a fence should be equally as well received.   Different!! 

NOS / EXC. . . . . . . $195.00         SOLD!





Lie Nielsen #95 (LH) Edge PlaneLie Nielsen #95 (LH) Edge Plane This is the left hand version of the Stanley #95 edge plane produced by Lie Nielsen.  Stanley just made one version, but Lie Nielsen saw the wisdom in making one skew right and another left to double sales.  I am surprised Stanley did not think of that.  The collector bought it as a collectible, and I doubt it ever saw a piece of wood.  Included is a signed letter from the president of Lie Nielsen describing all the features and fine points.    NOS!

NOS / EXC. . . . . . . .$125.00        SOLD!     






Lie Nielsen #95 (RH) Edge PlaneLie Nielsen #95 (RH) Edge Plane This is the right hand version of the Stanley #95 edge plane produced by Lie Nielsen.  Stanley just made one version, but Lie Nielsen saw the wisdom in making one skew right and another left to double sales and add to the versatility.  I am surprised Stanley did not think of that.  The collector bought it as a collectible, and I doubt it ever saw a piece of wood.  Included is a signed letter from the president of Lie Nielsen describing all the features and fine points as well as the box..    NOS!

Lie Nielsen planes are designed like the Stanley planes of the same # and this would be like the Stanley # 9 Low Angle Piano Makers Block Plane.  They were only made in bronze for a few years before they switched over to the iron version they still offer.  The plane itself is in near mint condition and shows little or no signs of use.  There are no scratches or wear to the sole.   It has just minor surface rust on the cutter that will wipe off.   The throat is perfect.   A nice plane!!
