  • Small and light enough to carry in an apron all day. I was in the middle of a big job when I bought it. Can't say I've ever regretted it but I do have the Stanley for times when there might be metal in the wood. It's perfect for the edges of cabinet doors.

    Another Stanley plane that's worth having is the bullnose rebate plane no.90 or similar. Not only is it great for rebating but you can use it to clean tenon shoulders and general scraping where a plane can't reach, great for sharpening mouldings after repairs.

  • Got an ancient little Stanley bullnose for just this. Tidying up rebates, hard to reach spots, awkward shoulders. Much quicker than a chisel. Helpful when making picture frames too.

  • I picked mine up years ago at one of the Sandown tool shows. The electricians one would have been on this week normally. Alway a good opportunity to pick up some handy little tools.
