The C. Christiansen Workbench Company, Chicago, Illinois

C. Christiansen Workbench Company, Chicago, Illinois: manufacturers of workbenches and related equipment for industry and manual arts schools. From John Christiansen, a descendent of the Christiansen family: "I came across these old photographs recently. The group shot is the crew at the Christiansen factory in Chicago taken around 1903. Carl is 2nd from left front row and John , his son, is seated next to him in the middle. The large outdoor photo is a company picnic in 1916. They continued making shop and lab furniture until around 1940. Some of the later benches had cast iron head and tail vises replacing the maple. These vises were made by Abernathy Vise , a company purchased by Carl Christiansen. So if your bench has an Abernathy Vise you can be sure that the bench is made by Christiansen. I enjoy your blog and it makes me feel good to know that these benches are still being used and appreciated. Best Regards, John Christiansen" From Tom Sturgeon: My name is Tom. I live

Fore Plane, 18th Century, Worcester County, Massachusetts

Rhykenology - The Study Of Wooden Planes Rhykenology Defined Facebook Group: Rhykenology: The Study Of Wooden Planes Facebook Group: Rhykenology: The Sales Group Courtesy of Dan Linski of the FB Rhykenology: The Study Of Wooden Planes group comes this exceptional fore plane. A bit of history: Some years ago I purchased this plane through Ebay and subsequently sold it. Dan Linski purchased it at a MWTCA meet and posted these pics to the Rhykenology group. All of which indicates that I've been in this way too long. Pat Lasswell opines: " I believe this style comes from Worcester County, MA... matching R Bacon, Jn Tower, U Clap, H Healy, B Child, D Hubbard"
