Understanding Bench Planes. What a difference an inch makes. The No. 4-1/2 is a little bigger than the No. 4, but that additional metal is a game-changer. The No. 4-1/2 smoothing plane is more popular now than it was when Stanley was the only game in town.
Regardless of which name is stamped on them, virtually every bench and block plane Stanley made from 1869 forward are all referred to (somewhat generically) as âStanley Baileyâ, or simply âStanleyâ or âBaileyâ â all are technically correct. The Bailey planes comprised Stanleyâs basic bench plane line and the company made millions of them. Some (years of manufacture) had the Bailey name stamped into the bed, while others did not. All, however, refer to the various design patents originated by Leonard Bailey, as âBaileyâ was never actually part of the Stanley company name.
