hmm remarkably similar :? I hope it don't end up with a crappy plastic handle.
But what do you make of this
Approximate Part Volume 3.51 cu inches
Approximate Part Weight 4.95 lb
Bloody things enormous

A bit of a difference between 050C, but not a whole lot...but lots different than the Stanleyesque plows...
As for the handle...there's gotta be a bit of mystery until the Man of Mystery speaks...

It's not like I don't have a plow or two. But I'll still spring for one of these. I like many things that have that 1950s look to them...this included.dchenard":3osp2uwo said:

Neat!
It seems that all those comments about the LV handles are having a measurable effect...they definitely look more curvy to me (at least the part that fits into the palm).
I can't wait to try it out either!

Many thanks Mike for posting the pics, but you've evaded answering about page three :lol: :wink: I wonder if those casting numbers 747 are still on the machined parts? if so "Jumbo" will be my name for it :lol: Now where did I put my cheque book? :lol:
edit.... I just had another look, they machined the numbers off

I guess "screw adjust" on the fence and depth stop was too expensive.
Shame, but understandable.
I'm a little more surprised at the absence of nickers. This really is a functional replacement for the Record #044, no more, no less.
