I recently bought this old planer from a friend who had it stored in his garage. He had no use for it and asked me whether I was interested in it. I completely disassembled it, cleaned it, and put it back together. The paint is original. I just tried it out, and it works great.
Comments for Model 103.1801 Planer
I’m a former woodshop teacher, cabinet and furniture maker, and avid tool collector. I’ve been collecting antique woodworking tools and restoring old Craftsman and Delta machines for almost forty years. I love the quality of the old Delta, Craftsman, Walker Turner, and other woodworking machinery from the 1940s through the ’70s. They just don’t make tools like that anymore and no one is going to be restoring woodworking tools purchased at big box stores fifty years from now. You can see my OldWoodworkingTools.com website about hand tools.

I inherited this old plainer from my grandfather and was wondering the worth. It’s in great shape though I haven’t refurbished yet.

I have the same planer. I found in my fathers barn after he passed away. I had the blades sharpend and used it once. I often wonder how much its worth.
