At a recent estate sale, I found this Stanley No. 4 ribbed plate plane. It was a throw-in item to induce me to buy two tool boxes I didn't need. It appears to be a Type 11 manufactured between 1911 and 1918. The blade has the Sweet Heart logo. Which is probably a replacement. It is missing the lever cap, but the rest of the plane is in good shape with no cracks. It does need a major cleaning. More to come on this tool.

Old hand tools are awesome. Nice pick-up!

Phase two, it has been cleaned. Small cracks in the knob needs to be repaired. Lots of Japanning left.

Update on the Model 4, Type 11, Stanley Bailey plane. I went back to the estate sale and poked through all the tool boxes. I was able to locate the original lever cap. The Stanley Sweetheart iron must be a replacement because it is from years later. All the rust has been removed. It is ready for sharpening and a little tune-up.
