[AT] A little of topic Antique moulding plane

[charlie hill]

Hi George,  I've always been facinated by old planes and wanted to collect 
them myself but when I got interested in them in the 70's they had gotten 
popular and high.  I decided that with the price they were asking and the 
space it would take to display them I'd better leave them alone.
