All, I was at a tool auction this weekend and meet a great Tool Dealer. His name is Jim Bode and his web site is JimBodetools.com. I have purchased a 5-1/2" coffin plane from him for $25.00  His web site is great, you can sign up for updates of new tools he acquires and his prices look good. He has both top of the line collector and user tools for whatever you want to spend.

Thanks, 

Mark
 
Mark, you are a gem! Thanks from the heart for this lead. A real prize, this source. And for that let me turn you on to something. Forest Products of Greenfield Mass. has an enormous stock of 1" (a real heavy inch) Brazilian Mahogany that runs up to 44" wide for around 22 bucks a foot. I've been dealing with her for years and know that this material is pre-CITES. She's had it for more than 20 years. It just sits because it's not thick. But it's flat. I wouldn't even bother planing it, just run it thru the Time Saver. I drool over it every time I go up there.
