Summary

Description
English: This picture is an end-on shot of a variety of moulding planes I own.

The top 5 planes in the picture have no blades, but these are easy to make from good steel, as are any missing blade clamps from wood offcuts. The craftsmen who used to use these tools expected to remake blades periodically. Two of those planes have the wooden blade clamp.

The bottom 10 planes have blade and blade clamp.

Individual descriptions where there is something special to say! So any maker's or owner's mark will be described here. I'll describe by counting from the left, with the left hand plane in each row being numbered 1.

Top row

1 - Stamped "Summers Varvill Ebor Works York" on one end and 10 on the other
2 - Stamped "Summers Varvill Ebor Works York" on one end and 16 on the other
3 - Stamped "Summers Varvill Ebor Works York" on one end and 12 on the other
4 - Stamped A Mason (owner's mark?)
5 - Stamped "Varvill & Son York" on one end and "BEAD" on the other along with a 12

Bottom row

1 - No markings
2 - Stamped "Summers Varvill Ebor Works York" on one end and 14 on the other
3 - Stamped "G Townsend" on each end and overstamped "G Haynes"
4 - Stamped "Wm Moss" and "W Beddow" on one end and "1/4" (aligned vertically as a fraction) on the other. Either at manufacture or later this plane has part of the pattern made from two wood fillets that are screwed (or perhaps bolted - I have not removed the screws) to the body
5 - Stamped "Summers Varvill Ebor Works York" on one end and 6 on the other
6 - Stamped "Ames London" in stylised script and "W Lissaman" on one end, and "W Lissaman" and 18 on the other
7 - Stamped "Summers Varvill Ebor Works York" on one end and 6 on the other (the profile is nothing like the other one that is stamped "6")
8 - Stamped "G Davis" and "P Jones" on one end and 10 on the other
9 - Stamped "B Baker" on the left side. This plane has a vertical metal profile piece inset into its leading edge. There is indecipherable possible wording on the metal

10 - nothing at all. May be a rebate plane since it has exposed blade sides, but there is no depth stop.
