Shadow Boxes of Tools

Serendipitous finds at a Furniture Consignment Store. I stopped in soon after they opened. Have known the manager around local antique malls for years. He pointed me to these which were part of a house cleanup commission. I'm sure I was the first tool hound to see these.

I want one of those hammers.SomedayForge

P9120143b.jpgAnother closeup146 viewsBIG teeth. And notice that they vary in size. The eldest of the sawyers was sharpening these saws on site. I didn't think to watch him more closely while doing that. SomedayForge

PA100039.jpgJust the knife143 viewsNote the cedar block. It was used to provide a "cutting board" surface. The attachment at the present time puts a level blade at about 5" above the horse. Someday a nice "snap on" block will be created. SomedayForge

DSC00383touchmark_copy.jpgMy Touchmark151 viewsHandmade on a piece of steel that probably started life as a star drill - 1/2" between flats. Used two tiny homemade chisels on smaller 6-sided piece of tool steel, one with a curved cutting edge, the other straight. Probably 3/16" stuff, with ends tapered to get the tiny chisels ends needed. Used tiny files to fine tune those chisels. SomedayForgeAug 26, 2011

P9120138b.jpgI'm ready to try it. 191 viewsThat's me in my BAM outfit. Notice that someone else has already done most of the cut for this slab. One cuts a bit on one side then switches to the other, maintaining 45 degree cuts that meet in the middle. Kind of like resawing. SomedayForgeFeb 24, 2011

P9120139b.jpgFull body action171 viewsYup, the full body is involved. It cuts quite a bit on each pull. SomedayForgeFeb 24, 2011
