B59-745 LOOM SHUTTLE PLANE. These specialized planes were designed to ride in tracks so that the sides of a textile mill shuttle could be planed exactly square to each other. This one is marked only with the number "1231" cast into the bottom of the rail, and we're not sure who made it, but unlike most it still has its track, with mostly intact decorative gold paint. 14-1/2" long, rosewood knob and tote, with a specialized 1-1/4" cutter with unique depth adjustment mechanism. There are some chips and surface pitting to the plane sole, but overall in good condition. These things, with their original track, are extremely rare. From the collection of John Sindelar. Good+ 300-600
