This was taken during a recent Christmas celebration far, far from South Carolina. So what kind of blade do you use for a frozen tenderloin?

I have used escutcheons as back plates for drawer or cabinet knobs. The knob fastener goes through the keyhole.

Insert a "Dutchman" a piece of veneer selected to match the sand thru. Use a gouge ground flat on the end to outline an eliptical hole; carefully remove the waste, and use the same gouge to cut the...

Check out Toms Cypress. Acres of very large slabs of most east coast woods.

No SYP that I am aware of but you owe it to yourself to stop by Tom's Cypress in Waldo Fl. Wood porn to the max

Most of the veneer was replaced including the drawer fronts. I had to replace the saw tills and at least 3 drawers. The sliding till in the bottom was missing so I veneered s piece of QSO with...

Here is one I restored last year. Started as a flea market derelict.

That blower looks a lot like the old "Cadillac" blowers used for portable vacuum cleaners. Solid metal construction and will last for ever, real screamers though and everything goes right through...

Yes,

They were made by Marples. Someone was selling these for $28/set of 7 chisels as a closeout and I purchased several sets to resell. Decent steel and durable handles.

Checking in from Ridgeville SC. My next door neighbor has the pictured tree in his front yard, about 20 feet in circumference. The wood is little used commercially but you can find it at local...

Thank you very much for posting the pictures of the saw holding mechanism, they are a great help. Mine has the same numbers stamped on opposite sides of the turntable and I do not have a clue what...

Very interesting, you show me yours.... This is similar to the R.H. Dorn's Patent. Pat. June 12, 1900 but not identical. The Dorn's patent has two parallel beams retaining the saw. I would very...

Vintage levels are much like planes, smaller sizes are valued more highly. Now is one of these was a 9" brass bound Stratton....

Tom,

There are flea markets in Savannah GA, 2 in Jacksonville FL and 1 in Ladson SC. All are catch as catch can. If you are going through northern SC on Wednesday, stop at the Pickens flea...

Use a large gouge to cut the recess and the dutchman. Make a cut, rotate the gouge 180º, make a second cut. Leaves a canoe shape to either excavate and fill or use as a dutchman.

Two educated guesses. Basket shave or leather splitter. Unfortunately I cannot verify either.

It is a shoemakers tool for shaving leather soles.

Use an applied molding, faster to the case with brads and miter all corners.

Very hard when dried and works well. Tends to be smaller in size. I have never seen a laurel cherry over 15" OD. If you can get it dry and stable, should make a great bench.

Second on the bearing scraper. Used for scraping babbet bearings to fit a shaft.

A few revisions concerning construction. Upon closer inspection it is not built up of horizontal segments. Each of the verticals has a 1/8" deep dado on each side, the drawer support segments slide...

It is built of a series of horizontal octagonal frames, hollow in the middle. Each frame appears to be about 6" deep and mine are made of poplar with oak facings. Each frame is notched at the...

I have one of these and can take some pictures if you like.

It is almost impossible to match the old oak with new oak plugs. I would try to remove as much of the ribbon as possible, careful, the wood will be brittle. Then you can use a small chisel or what...
