After work this morning & having read about powder metal in the "new veritas chisels" thread, i paid a visit to an old retired friend whose work encompassed such things.
What i learned about PM was very similar to what Tony Zaffuto has posted in that thread, so i wont repeat that, but at the conclusion of our conversation & a few cups of coffee, i was invited up to the old boys workshop to take a look at "something you might like".
& the old boy was right again, i very much liked what i saw.

This Stanley No 50 plough plane was the old boys dads, it`s stamped 02,with" made in eng" embossed on it, now to my shame this is not a plane i`ve come across before, so, as I'm now the proud owner, i was wondering if anyone could tell me how old it would be & any other info?
Cheers.
