Hi All,
Last weekend I saw an old plane that was marked Bailey on the front nose of the plane. Now I know absolutely nothing about planes, and have no idea what model this one might be. It looked about 9 inches long.
Also, I wasn't sure of the condition and if it could be brought up to good working shape. The bottom had some deep pitting along the back end. I tried sighting down the length and across the bottom and by eye it looked fairly flat.
I don't have a shop yet but am still looking to add to my small collect from time to time hoping to round out my small hand tool collection by the time I can work out getting a shop so this is not a must have for a project but wanted to know if something like this would be worth investing $12.00 on.
