looking for hand powered woodworking tools

I am currently looking for

a dowel sizing plate
a brace and bit
a wood threader set (for creating wood nuts and bolts etc)

and other hand powered woodworking tools. Some of these can be purchased in modern versions for outrageous prices (Sorry I am not paying $58 to $119 for a steel plate with holes drilled in it by a machine in china)

Basically I am going back into old faishioned woodworking (along with my other hobbies) and some of my tools have dissapeared over the years (Or been destroyed).

If anybody has these (or others) laying around or knows where I can get them used (or made) for a modest price I would be VERY willing to discuss price. I still need to make new handles for my draw knife that belonged to my great great grandfather, and I need to build myself a shaving horse for making my own tool handles, and I need to build myself a new toolbox, and a new joining mallet, and a few minor odds and ends. . . . but thats half the fun.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
