B-166 MITER PLANER. Millers Falls. Patented in 1882 by David Rogers of Greenfield, MA, and marketed first by Langdon Bros. and then by MF after it acquired Langdon, this beast is generally regarded as the best combination shooting board and miter cutter ever made. Its bulk makes it very stable, the double-cutter plane cuts in either direction, and the swinging fence can either be used at preset angles or adjusted for individual angles. This is the middle size, with 3-1/2" wide skewed cutters. We've seen other examples with different paint; this is all black but the finish looks original except for the central locking wingnut which has been spray painted and is probably a modern replacement. Apart from that, it's complete and a joy to use or just to admire.Fine 900-1500 NOTE: Absentee bidding ends 5:00pm EST on Friday, March 29, 2019.
