The Builders plate shown below was found in a mill in Hancock NH. According to the owner it was taken off a wood frame rotary bed planer after the machine self destructed when his slow brother lowered the cutter head into the bed while attempting to plane quarter inch stock. The results were not pretty needless to say but everyone survived as they were luckily standing to the side of the machine and clear of the explosive shower of iron and steel.
