Lot 119:
Two Woodworking Tools comprising a Stanley No. 151 Adjustable Spokeshave and a Stanley Sliding T-Bevel, Both Good Condition
Description
This lot features two traditional hand tools of British manufacture. The first is a Stanley No. 151 adjustable spokeshave, constructed from cast iron with a black japanned finish. This model incorporates a flat-bottom design and twin knurled thumb-screws for fine blade adjustment. The markings MADE IN ENGLAND and No 151 are cast into the frame. The second tool is a sliding T-bevel gauge, used for layout work and angle measurement. It comprises a hardwood stock reinforced with brass plates at either end and a slotted steel blade. A brass lever on the side serves as the locking mechanism.
Condition report:
The tools are in good used condition with signs of age consistent with workshop service. The spokeshave shows substantial loss to the black japanning and surface oxidation across the iron body, screws, and blade. The T-bevel exhibits a dark patina to the hardwood and brass fittings, with scattered oxidation and surface wear on the steel blade.
