Blades for Stanley 13-030

[jorge]

Apologies if it has been asked before, I couldn't find a reference to this

Anyone knows if blades for Stanley 13-050/52 can be used with 13-030?

I have the standard 3 blades but would need bigger sizes.

Thanks in advance

Anyone?

Probably.

The latter, from what I can see doesn't have any adjustment. The bade is advanced by hand. From what I can see of the former, the blade has a notch to link with an adjustment screw.

The bottom line is that any Plough-plane blade, from any maker, that is 1/8 inch thick, will be interchangeable if the adjustment mechanism on the plane is disabled and the blade set by hand.

Thank you. I also thought that they would probably fit, but was surprised to see that all spare blades I've found on ebay are advertised for 050 and 052 planes, never a reference to 030.
Cheers
