Found a true rarity today, at least a picture of one for sale. Never seen one of these, even in pictures! It is a Stanley 164 low angle smoother. Stanley took the 62, which is jack plane length, and shortened it to smoothing plane length, but then found that the depth adjusting mechanism wouldn't fit and came up with a hybrid mechanism using the same parts. This this early 30's version is unused. The sales price is $3,875.00.
The only time I have ever said "much cheaper to buy the Lie-Nielson version"
