Holy cow!  The first photo is a killer.  Stanley 386 - plane fence, Stanley 83 - cabinet scraper, and Stanley 71 -router plane with three blades.  Wow!  Just wow!
You might say I have a tool collecting problem....

Hello, Yadda. Thanks. I went back the next day and found another router with the correct clamp for the first one that I bought , which was japanned. I will post pics tomorrow of day 2.

Three more router planes and two compass planes.  The sliding bevel square looks huge.  That is also a huge chisel?

Hello, Yadda. The sliding bevel is 27" long . The iron handle tool is a Clapboard Slick , and I am pretty sure it was from a NY maker from about 85 miles northeast of where I live!
