Stanley 70 Review By: I.Ball

Manufacturer: Stanley

Plane Type: Box Scraper

Model No: 70


           

The Stanley box scraper number 70 consists of a small hinged head equipped with a 51mm (2 inch) wide scraper blade which is all controlled with a long hardwood handle.

The base on the Stanley 70 scraper is slightly convex; the 70 scraper blade mirror's this curvature.

The head has the Stanley black japanned finish.

Over the years there has been a few different design modifications, mainly to the material used. The hardwood handle has been made using Maple with a brass ferrule, with later examples having a steel ferrule and a hardwood handle with a lacquered finish.

The tool as the name suggests is ideal for scraping small work such as boxes.

In particular the box scraper is ideal for removing marks such as pencil marks and removing any knotty unevenness.

The oldest Stanley 70 scrapers were made by Stanley Rule & Level. If the original blade is still present it will have the markings 'Stanley Rule & Level' across it.

"Just stumbled across your website and an absolute treasure trove of information. I was recently given an old Stanley 110 block plane and wanted to know more about it. Your website told me everything I needed to know.

But there is so much more to read. I forsee me spending a lot of time just reading page after page. I can appreciate how much time this will have taken to put together.

I just wanted to let you know that your hard work is appreciated."
