Extra Info: What is a Scraper Plane? Scraper Plane Videos
Manufacturer: Stanley
Plane Type: Scraper Plane
Model No: 112
The Stanley scraper plane number 112 has a 9 inch long plane body with
an adjustable scraper blade holding mechanism which allows the user to
tilt the scraper blade to the required angle.
The angle of the scraper
blade is set by turning the large brass adjuster nut found towards the
rear of the plane.
The Stanley 112 scraper plane holds a scraper blade to 3 inch wide.
The scraper blade is locked in position by turning the brass lever cap
nut.
The body is made from cast iron and is fitted with a shaped Rosewood
rear handle and front knob. The handling of the scraper plane is virtually
the same as a smoothing plane, giving it the familiar comfortable feel.
The surface of the body is finished with a black japanned finish as common with
nearly the whole Stanley range.
Similar versions of the Stanley 112 have been made since the original Stanley 112
plane, these include the
Veritas scraping plane,
Lie Nielsen scraping plane and
the Kunz 112 scraper plane.
The Stanley 112 scraper plane is used to give a surface a super smooth finish.
