Went rust hunting yesterday, and had some good luck. I bought a 26 inch Shurley & Dietrich crosscut saw, which is identical to a rip saw I have from the same maker except the blade on the crosscut is narrower, maybe from more sharpening.
However as stated above the real reason for this thread was to inqire if anyone here has knowledge of a plane maker called WmThomson, I am assuming the m as it is hard to make out on the plane, but there is something there. It is a really nice fillester that I swear had a wedge in it when I bought it but seems to have gone awol. I will make a new one if needs be.
Anyway I spent two hours this morning googling and found a lot of interesting stuff, I am easily distracted, but nothing about this planemaker. Problem is here in Canada we tend to get both American and British tool makers so I am not even sure if this one is British or American.
Thanks in advance for your help.
