Buck Rogers' Millers Falls no 714
I have a Millers Falls no. 714 that is in excellent shape. I have been
using it for a couple of years off and on. It was designed for general carpentry, but it appears to have a lot of value in the collector's market. http://www.public.coe.edu/~rroeder/main/bench/buckr.htm http://www.toolsrules.com/PLANES.htm (see 4th item down) Mine is a type 1. There is one of the handle screws missing, but otherwise it looks like it could have been bought last week. I often wonder if I should sell it and get a Lie Nielson equivelent and possibly still have money left over for some other tools. Although it works very well, it was designed for carpentry (has a fairly wide fixed throat). Does anyone know what the range of prices are for this plane? The $1,500 price seems like it would be at the top end. Eric |
