The older Stanley 60 1/2 is one of my go-to planes. Is it a newer Stanley or an older one. If it’s a newer SW, I returned mine, didn’t like it, so I won’t be much help. Do you understand how the mouth adjustment works? Does it have a stock blade or a replacement? Is the depth adjuster sitting in the iron’s dog hole properly? If you take some pics, we might be better help. Good luck, this is a great plane.
