- Description
- Block plane made by the Stanley Rule and Level Co. It is a Bailey No. 22. The body is wood with a cast iron top which houses the blade and cap. The blade is adjustable by a knob and the angle can be changed by a lever behind the blade. The wood body of the plane has had a 1/4 inch removed from the sole. This has been replaced by a 1/4 inch thick piece of hardwood secured by one screw at the right rear corner. The replacement sole turns freely on the one screw. This is most likely a repair or replacement for a worn sole.
