Here’s the update I promised. 45 was delivered today. All the parts are there and it is much cleaner than I anticipated. No rust on body, skate, and fence – just dirt stuck in light machine oil that came right off. Blades are in excellent shape. Looking forward to getting it in the shop.

The screwdriver was an add on. Just ordered it today so we’ll see when I get it. I’ll post when it does. Thanks!
Thanks! Seller said those parts are there – just not in picture. He replied that the price was for the plane and 15.00 for the screwdriver that Stanley included with each plane. Anything special about the screwdriver Stanley packaged with the plane? In the picture it looks like a regular srewdriver.

I bought a QR record vise (from the 90s) and installed it on the bench. I can understand why the moveable jaw is canted in. My problem is with the jaw on the body of the vise. When the vise is installed on a bench shouldn’t the fixed jaw be square to the top of the bench? I doubt this is a defective vise so how do I make adjustments? One more reason why I don’t get a square edge joining edges 😉
Thanks everyone! Larry your detailed reply was extremely helpful. The Veritas has all the bells and whistles and a price to match. So even though I’ve never bought a tool over the internet, I’m going to buy the Stanley 45 pictured below. The seller says all parts are present and it looks really clean. The blade show some surface rust but nothing serious. Price is 225.00 US.
