Hi gang;

Ken Hume drew our attention to a Carpenter's Fellowship forum question about French assembly mark in another thread. I have since learned several new things about French assembly marks and posted links to illustrations which show these marks in that forum. I thought I would share a link to that thread and ask anyone in this forum who may be able to expand on French marks to do so.

Has anyone seen marks like these in North America?
