This is part 1 in a 3 part series: Old Sargent Planes

This is an ebay find. I took a chance thinking it might be a type 1. This time it paid off.

The before:

And the now:

It’s complete and all look parts are period correct.

It did pay off.

I bought 2 number 6 on ebay and one came with the side broken. The seller posted more info after I bid and I did not pay attention.
Oh well it’s still usable. the second one I gave to my friend as a gift.
