Why are you responding, much less trying to reason with, this troll. Most on here killed filed this idiot long ago. I guess what I need is a filter that will catch anything related to this fool.
I can spot you HORS and STILL kick your ass!

Have a nice week...

A little off-topic here, Chuck, but...
They're starting to collect...and SELL on Ebay...the FREE discs that AOL has been giving out over the years. And they're gettin' good money for them!!
Go figure!
So, if you've got any of those crumby Stanley's left, I'd hang on to them...or give them to your grand kids. They'll probably be worth big bucks one of these days.
As long as you don't screw them up, change them, and make them cut better! :)
Have a nice week...

Better than that.
_I'm_ getting good money for them ! 8-)
Seems the UK ones were harder to find. I just had to dust them off from my collection of "That's damn good polycarbonate that, it'll come in handy some day".

The only material in their planes that was unavailable 100 years ago was the A2 for the blade.
What are things like the lever caps made from ? I've seen some Veritas products that were making extensive use of the ZA series zinc-aluminium diecasting alloys. Now Mazak has a pretty dire reputation, mainly for poor long term stability. But the ZA series are stiffer, long-lasting, and still cost effective to make.

Actually, ductile iron is a recent innovation ....
I take it you've never dropped a piece of normal cast. If you had, you certainly would know how much of a difference it can make.
And that is normal use, right?
Having a bad day?
Certainly it makes a difference, as does making a plane out brass or bronze, steel or cast iron, cast iron or ductile iron. The materials all have different properties - tensile strength, damping coefficients, warping characteristics, machinability....

Is it really made from ducks and ceramic, Rob?

I have beed looking the prices for hand planes recently, and boy, being a librarian must pay well :-)
irax.
How old ? I thought it was mid 19th ? _Rare_, but it was known.

There's some stuff on display in Coalbrookdale (home of Victorian cast iron) about ductile iron. Clearly there's another of those US / UK terminology variations going on. Adding magnesium to the melt would have been easy enough mid-19th, if only you could find the magnesium....
"Dynaflow tranny explosion" ? Isn't that a Wasp Factory song ?

And if they'd tried pure mag, what -pretty- fireworks would have ensued!
Could be. Whassa "Wasp Factory"? I didn't know white anglo saxon protestants did blue-collar work. =:0
