Oddly enough, found this at the Seattle Food Truck Festival. Stanley Bailey no6 for $20 Best part is, dude said he got it from an old man who is retiring his woodshop, and got my email address to come look when he's ready. .

$10 for this. There's a Snap On, a Blue Point, some Plomb, Proto, and a couple others I don't recall.
