I just got a couple old Baileys and the #5 is missing the bolt (short) for the front of the tote where it bolts to the sole. Where can I find a replacement?
Also while I am at it, I am new to hand planes and I have “The Handplane Book” by Hack, but does anyone have any tips on fettling that are not in the usual sources.
Lastly, while I am thinking of it, when did the lettering for “Bailey” at the toe change from the curved, wrapping letters behind the knob to the straight lettering in front of the knob?
OK, that’s all (for now).
thanks, Jake
