#3 Sized Stanley Handyman 1203 Smoothing Plane
Details
Stanley Handyman 1203 (#3 sized) Smoothing Plane. Handyman tool line replaced the Defiance line in the lae 50's and was produced up till the early 70's. They where homeowner grade tools, but do make a good user plane with some tuning. I have not found any info on how to date these tools yet, but I think this may be from the 60's, maybe later 60's. But I am just guessing. Has some paint on it that I should had cleaned off before listing, but...
I have done nothing to this plane, it is how I got it. I bought out a large collection of planes recently and this is part of that bunch. Keep an eye on my listings as I will have about 50 planes that I will be listing over the next few weeks as well as some other items..

Selling since November 2024
Retired Archaeologist now working for city of Lexington Engineering Dept. Have been a carpenter and woodworking for some time, just switched over to hand tools several years ago. But now my health has changed, I have no kids and if Gods will, will be retiring and moving to Philippines in the next 5 Years. So I am slowly selling off tools (and other things) that I know I will not be hauling across the world. When the time comes, I may sell off more, but for now all my extras or things I bought to resale need to go....Heck I may just sell it all and not touch a tool again depending on my health in 5 years....
