I have a compound angle bracket, and when i cleaned it up, it says Ford in the old script in 3 places. it has a weird name too, cant remember something to do with angles. its indexed to about 140 degrees, 70 each way, to a hard stop, and the bottom is the same way, but its only graduated on the edge, so no stop. its on an iron mount plate, with a square nut holding it. I cant remember, DegreeMaster? i will post a a pic soon. There was a cool vise on it, but i haven't found a name yet. Anyway i used it to machine an angle in an aluminum bracket, and was curioujs who made it.
 
All I can add is that Ford did make some tools, but I do not know the scope of what they made.
 
OK mystery ends early. Its a style F adjustable bracket made by Geometric, New Haven Conn. The vise is a Brown and Sharpe #21 machine vise.
