record 41 blades

[arminiusrex]

I have aquired 3no unused cutters for a record 41 shoulder plane.

Offers invited, or possibly trade for a cutter for a record 73 and record/stanley combination plane blades

Hi there, have no reason to doubt you genuinely have these baldes to sell, but there is a general wariness of folks who come on with something to sell with their first post.

How about you give a little info about yourself and your interests in woodworking. I have a No 41 and could be interested in a spare blade for example.

Welcome to the forum by the way and hope you choose to stick around.

Cheers

No problem.

I am a Design and Technology Teacher currently working for an agency on supply and I have have aquired a large number of tools from a closing school.

These cutters were found in a tin with 2no sorby scrapers and 6no tam o'shanter hones.

The hones are pristine, by the way. Do you know if they are worth much?

The reason for asking about a cutter for a no73 is that I now have one, together with both a Record AND Stanley combination plane, but with no blades.

I don't suppose you have any cutters for a Stanley no66 have you?

If you want a photo, please ask.

Hi arminiusrex,

Welcome to the forum.

Apparently it is not easy to post a photo on this site.

You will find instructions on picture posting here.

It's actually impossible (!!).

But it is VERY easy to host a photo on another site (I recommend photobox as being free, and free from adverts when you direct-link), and then post a link.

This has the side benefit of allowing your photo to be used on a blog, other forums, ebay etc.

Now if I have done this right, should link you to a photo of the 041 cutters

Now you just need to work on your photographic technique

At least you didn't use flash.

No, I need a new camera for christmas. Never used it for close up work before, and it's not up to the job.

What (model) is it?

hmm ... distorted picture

Camera is a Praktica G3.2 with 3 megapixel res.

It's made of plastic, so I suppose I shouldn't complain.

Will try to use my Daughters phone next time.

Ah. Fixed focus, minimum distance 1.5 metres.

Try moving out to that distance, then cropping using desktop software (AKA digital zoom).

Thanks Bugbear.

Will have to try that.
