Spoils from today’s used tool sale: a Stanley 45 (type 7B) plane. Nearly complete (missing two irons I don’t care about). Didn’t come in an original box, but again, I don’t really care about that either. (I do need to come up with a better storage solution than this cardboard box, tho.) #woodworking
