Frank, I was intrigued by a couple of the OWT routers in photo 8 of 16. 
The ones with a body shaped sort of like a coffin plane but with a "U" 
or "V" shaped cutout in the front and an iron held in place by a wedge. 
I'd like to see more detailed photos of those showing how they are set 
up, how the irons are ground, etc. What are the bedding angles?

Hi Chuck,

The one with the "U" shaped cutout was made by Marples & Sons.

The other didn't have any markings but came with a set of 4 or 6 plow 
plane blades.  Looking at the back of the router, it is clear someone 
did use it - lots of hammer hits for making depth adjustments.  The 
blades are marked J. Howarts, Sheffield - sizes 3, 6, 7, and 8.  I 
thought it came with 6 irons, but if so, I am missing a couple.

I'll get back to you with pictures measurements, etc.
