B56-547. COMBINATION PLANE. Fales Patent. Amos Fales' patent plane is one of the most complex ever made, with an almost endless set of auxiliary parts to produce various patterns. This one comes with two examples of the main frame, one with rosewood tote and knob and the other beech. The marketing materials recommended that the user have two so that the user could switch between hollows and rounds. Also included are long and short rods, four nosing attachments, one filletster, five plow/dado, nine sets of hollows and rounds, eight side beads, six center beads, 7/8" ogee, and two quarter rounds, plus the very rare chamfer sash bevel gauge. 119 pieces in all. The consignor has included a photocopy of the original instruction sheet and helpfully sorted all the attachments and compared them to the list included in the instruction sheet. All contained in the drawers of a Gerstner-type machinist's chest (10" x 20" and 16" tall) that we're including and is very attractive in itself. There's surface rust on some of the parts (particularly the skate of the rosewood handled body), but overall very clean and one of the nicest and most complete Fales patents you'll ever see.
