You are offerding on avery nice example of a vintage Beech & Boxwood Coffin Shaped Adjustable Toe CompassPlane by HIELDS of Nottingham in good clean used condition.

The Thomas FIRTH & Sons tapered iron is freshly ground and polished from my Tormek and Creusen wheels, so good and sharp. Could be laminated, hard to tell.

Good clear makers marks as shown, stamped to the side of the toe so the beautifully fitted dovetailed boxwood adjuster is as it was meant to be and not a later addition or marriage.

The original locking screw is good.

Just 7 1/4\" long, 2\" iron & 2 5/8\" widest sole. 860g in weight.

Nice unusual plane, ready to go.

Please note that as of April 1st 2013 Royal Mail in the UK have introduced sweeping price increases to all domestic and international services.

They have also chosen to drastically alter the volumetric size pricing bands which means that some lighter but bulkier items have increased in shipping cost enormously. As a direct result of this MK Services has been forced to increase shipping costs in line with these extra costs. MK Services DOES NOT seek to make profit on any shipping charges but buyers must appreciate that there are significant costs for packaging materials which we make a nominal charge for. Buyers may check shipping costs at any time by visiting www.royalmail.com. International buyers should be aware that any item that exceeds the 2kg Small Airmail Packet weight limit will be SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive to ship and should take care to investigate these costs BEFORE offerding. This should be borne in mind when asking for multiple items to be consolidated in one shipment. We are always happy to advise and discuss these costs at any time. We are also happy to refund any postage costs that we have miscalculated once the item actually ships.

In view of the large number of 'missing' or 'lost in post' items when sent to Italy, we will forthwith ONLY ship to Italy using a Royal Mail Signed For Small Packet Airmail Service. If a buyer does not wish to pay this extra £5.30 charge we will ship normal Small Packet Airmail only when they email to confirm that we ship at their own risk. We will always obtain Proof of posting at this end but this is not trackable.
