Mike,
I am still pretty new to hand tools, especially dovetails. I started with the Cosman DVD/workbook, and then took a 6 hour class that had 4 students. We didn't really have enough time for...
I learned from the Cosman DVD, or I should say the first half DVD, as he doesn't go into all that I thought he was going to. (Sells more DVDs that way, I guess). I went a step further though. I...
I did some checking and got some pics. Maybe this will help. Here's the box overall;
I used a feeler guage to get an actual measurement instead of just saying "it's loose". It measured .008 to...
It didn't have some parts, and I just got them. I haven't installed them yet, so no, I haven't tried it yet. There was no way to keep the blade from going into the steel bottom, and I didn't want...
On Pat Leache's list this month was this Disston beading saw. Maybe it was used for that?
I just got an old miter box with no name on it. It looks like a Millers Falls, but there are some differences. The posts that hold the saw do look identical though. I have a Disston back saw for...
Amazing. One guy can coin a term, and it gets so used, most people don't know the real name any more. Transitional planes, #6s and OBMCs. What will Pat pick on next?
Another amazing thing,...
OK, thanks all.
Greg
There are some pigstickers available locally, and I believe they're French made from around 1900. I'm interested in them, but I thought they should be the same thickness from front to back. For...
I finally got to get some better pics of the backsaw. It says S. SWANN & CO Sheffield.
If this helps anyone to nail down the value of the saw, Mrs. Ott would be very grateful. She has expressed...
Cool Jeff! There it was (not exact, but awful close), a common English wrest. Thanks for the link. I'd never seen that site before.
Tony, it seems that older tools and machinery are much more...
I seem to remember Derek Cohen having a tutorial on making dados (just grooves) with a handsaw and chisel. Maybe a router plane was also employed.
The sharks are what I'm trying to help her avoid. There are several others watching out for her, too.
My boss noticed that the saw cover grain seems to match the grain on the handle. I'm going...
John,
It's not Sorby, but I'm not sure if it can be Mathieson. It may be. At least it's a target. I need to go back with a magnifying glass.
David,
It has split nuts, which most likely...
George,
Great information. It's all starting to make sense now. I was hoping you'd see this.
Yes, they're for sale, but I think the saw is spoken for unless it's value as a collectible...
Number 2 on the scraper. Inexpensive, easy to "sharpen", easy to control the amount of material taken off. You may even want to try it without a burr.
Thanks Jim, I'll suggest that to her. I love woodworkers! They all seem to have great big hearts.
I'm wondering about the saw cover making the saw worth a great deal more, kind of like having...
Thanks for the info. It makes sense now, as he had a lot of hand saws.
I just met a lady who's husband had to be placed in a nursing home. She now has the task of dispersing his huge collection of hand and power tools. I came across a couple of items that have me...
I got a package of scraps from Hobby Lobby years ago. Different colors and sizes, but it was something like 5 pounds for less than $10 if I remember right.
I checked rentals, and the only thing nearby was a huge unit for over $100 a day. I didn't see much sense in spending over 1/3 the price of something I could just own. I also wanted something...
Just get a car like one of these;

I have gotten clamps, air hose fittings, wrenches, etc. from Harbor Freight, and have a friend with one of their sliding miter saws. The miter saw isn't anything I would ever buy after using it a...
I've dealt with them in the past. Great folks, great service, outstanding shipping!
