Karma for woodworkers or collectors **Winner ArtieS**
From my collection of several different style rabbet planes, this is the largest, a Record No. 010 Carriage Maker’s Rabbet Plane. Full specs at the link. I used this for many years in a custom millwork shop, but it remains in very good condition. Post WW2 manufacture, so the wood handles are beech, not rosewood.

That is absolutely beautiful. It would definitely get used, and cared for. Consider me lucky number one.
Thank you for the opportunity. What a cool karma.

I am wanting to add some specialty hand planes to my shop to try doing some of the things that I currently use my power tools for. Please add me for consideration in this karma and thank you very much!
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Please count me in. I have a small Stanley Rabbet Plane, but could use a larger, more stable one like that.

Beautiful, even better knowing it's history.
Thank you for the chance!
Whoever wins, maybe it would be nice to know name of the millwork shop and your use detailed somewhat more.
Tools have a story, it's nice to know!
Thanks again!

I used to run a custom millwork shop, and now have a small working collection of vintage tools. This plane would be a welcome addition. Please include me for a chance, and thank you for the opportunity!

Count me in as well please. But for disclosure it would go to my brother. He is a veteran as well and loves to do his woodworking and forging with older tools.
