: I have one of those "cheapest" Stanley current vintage block planes
: that I got at a tag sale for $1. The one with no adjustment wheel but a
: horizontal wheel that just squeezes the blade and holds it.

: If it's sharp and adjusted, it works fine. Anybody want it? $3.

No thanks, Jay. I picked up one of those at a local farmers co-op chain. They gave me my money back. I bought a good chisel instead.

Those things can't be tuned right. Although, the one I got did have a flat sole.

I'll stick with my old 220 with the broken blade lock.
