ITEM DESCRIPTION
Vintage tools - plane N555
Up for sale is a rare vintage ROBERT McCONNELL Australian made SCRUB PLANE.
Only produced for approximately 10 years (around 1941-1951), they are a cool piece of the Australian post WW2 manufacturing boom times, made in the Fortitude Valley, Queensland.
Arguably one of the more minimal & brutalist hand plane designs ever produced, they have charm by the bucket load & are a very rare thing. In collector grade condition, stamped with its patent number & date & silky oak handles.
So ugly that it’s beautiful.
Size - 48mm cutter
