Listing description

Product description

Vintage Stanley bench plane, Salter No.30C cookery scale and a manual hand-crank drill offered together as a single lot. The Stanley plane is a metal-bodied bench plane with original wooden tote and front knob; the Stanley nameplate is visible on the lever cap. The Salter No.30C cookery scale retains its aluminium bowl and the original faceplate/logo; scale reads to 5 lb on the dial. The hand drill has its original wooden handle and red gearbox with a drill bit in the chuck.

This trio suits a restoration hobbyist, vintage-tool collector or a small workshop looking for character tools and display pieces. The scale is useful for retro kitchen display or light weighing tasks; the plane and hand drill are practical workshop tools once cleaned and (for the plane) sharpened. Ideal for someone who enjoys cleaning, light metalwork and returning vintage tools to use.
