Adam 1912 Wood Planes

June 29, 2007 1912 Wood Planes


Almost anyone who has ever removed excess wood from a door is probably familiar with the modern all metal sole wood plane.

They replaced what was once an all wood bodied plane.

But, for a brief time period, there were "transitional" wood planes that combined a smooth wooden sole, with the ultra adjustability of a metal top section.

The Sears 1912 catalog is THE PLACE to go, to see all of the transitional planes for sale, along with a smidgen of metal bench planes.
