Since spelling is a common problem and transcribing hand written documents 
is more art than science perhaps "rubber" is a mistake. As most of us can 
attest some old tools have had a hard life. Someone may have kicked the "S" 
out of a scrub plane.

Well now if we're not working with original documents but rather
potentially faulty second party transcriptions, then maybe your "rubber"
plane is really a "router" plane, as in "woman's tooth."
