Who is your favorite old wood plane maker?
I was messing with the stack of hollows and rounds the other day, which are just a mix of what I've found over the years, and got to wondering what was considered the most desirable user class maker. There are several dozen makers in my stack, and some are obviously better than others. Personally, I seem to go for the English planes most often. Mathieson has more than a few good examples on my shelf, so does Sims. Thoughts?
