I made a small wine rack for a friend and he rewarded me with a couple of old tools...a brace and plow plane.
I dont know much about vintage woodworking tools, but I know some of you are really knowledgeable, so I'm posting them for comments
First is this brace
It shows "John Wilson Maker Sheffield " on the chuck end
The other is this plow plane
Its stamped " John Moseley and son, 54-56 Broad St., Bloomsbury , London
I think both of these tools were made in the mid 1800s. Seem to be in pretty good shape for their age
Any comments about them would be appreciated.
Thanks for looking. Don
