Standard Rule #37 (Upson Nut)

Here is a Standard Rule #37 smoother I restored. This is an enormous size smoother if it was considered a smoother. The blade is marked Upson Nut, which was the company Standard Rule merged about 1888. They were in Unionville Ct.

The blade is 2 9/16” wide. Overall the plane is 13” long and a little over 3 3/8” wide at the widest part.

I have a few other Standard Rule articles here.

This plane is before the 1889 lateral patent. This plane was manufactured under US Patent: 287,584

Patentees: Solon R. Rust – Pine Meadow, CT and Arthur E. Rust – Pine Meadow, CT, Granted: Oct. 30, 1883

To show the size, here it is next to a Stanley #36
