I have a couple of SS bench planes (but decided to go for Carter, Falcon and Pope for patriotoc reasons (also found better iron and steel in them)).
However, I have and love using the following Records:
#45C
#50C
#311 3-in-1 shoulder plane
#2506 rebate shoulder plane
#722 small router plane
(ie I like the Records that Stanley never made)

Also for got the #43 and some Aussie rip offs of the #40
i too am patriotic but apart from the Turner especially with the E.A.Berg iron the Pope and carter are not in the same leaque as Stanley and Record.The only reason Aust started making planes was due to an embargo on inports after the war.I have restored all types of planes and found the Carter and Pope to have a rough casting and the carter iron was only tempered 1" up the blade.Quote:

If I sell, Dave, I will let you know. But it is unlikely.
The #2506 is the S with the fence.
One curiosity that I have is a clamp for the #45c which says "No 44C". AFAIK there was no 44c.

Thanks Dave - looks like there had been some "bastardisation" going on with what is mainly a 45c. Oh well, still works very nicely:2tsup:, so its a keeper in my collection of planes to use.:UQuote:
