Interesting. There are unpolished Two Cherries chisels available in the United States. Unfortunately the set that I saw took a bath in lacquer; both the handles and the blades.

How does the handle look after a few whacks from a mallet? My thought is the bench chisels are better suited to paring because of the bevel angle and elm handles. Although I am more interested in...
ForumRunner has not worked since the first iOS 10 update. I took it off my iPhone when I found out that the developer has not released an update in more than two years.
Have you tried different...
I'm wondering if the Fulton chisels are 6mm and 12mm; both a bit smaller than 1/4in. and 1/2in. sizes.
Also possible that the chisel was ground under-size by either the factory or a previous...
Thanks for the feedback Allen. The appeal of the Robert Sorby butt chisels is the side bevel being ground down to 2mm or so and the tapered bolster.
Another option I am considering are the MHG...
Does anyone have experience with or opinions about the Robert Sorby #570 Sheaf River Butt Chisels? I came across these on the Hartville Tool website and cannot seem to find much more information on...
The most simplistic Passive Anti-Theft Device used to be a kill switch mounted somewhere in the vehicle. Only the owners/drivers knew where the switch was located. Anyone that thought they could...
Does your shop vac include a bag or other filtration method before the HEPA filter? I threw in the towel and started using the paper bags in my Ridgid vacuum to get more life out of the blue filters...
Not exactly. I'm fairly certain this will fit on the Pro 5 since the dust connections are the same. I'm not sure about the current ETS 125....
Admins / Mods - Any chance of getting Tapatalk support for this forum?
I'm still on the 5,000mi oil change intervals. The tires need rotated anyhow.
I don't like going much beyond 5,000mi because my vehicle has a rather small oil filter. There is only so much that...
Not sure which floor attachment you're using. I gave up on the all plastic versions and use a Ridgid floor brush.

Everything that I've read about the Pro 5 and ETS 125 suggests not going lower than P150 (150-grit).
Brilliant 2 is still available through some retailers. Ace Tool has some of the 125mm discs on...
For whatever reason ForumRunner is not compatible with iOS 10 and the app developer does not seem to be making any updates. Can Tapatalk be used for this forum? These apps are nice for quicker...
Do you have access to argon or carbon dioxide? My understanding is either can be used to displace oxygen and keep finish/paint in good condition.
I would not heat the bearings without knowing the rated operating temperature.
Dry ice to shrink the diameter of the shaft is an option. Just don't drop it.
A good machine shop can assemble...
Bought a Turbo II a few months ago. Had to return the first unit due to shipping damage. Note that Fein puts no foam or other packing material in the box, the vacuum touches the cardboard.

Warmest and thickest socks that I have are the Smartwool Mountaineer socks. I found these to run a bit small, so I use an XL with 11.5 boots (US size).
My suggestion would be start with a...
I'm looking to fill a void between my current nail guns. Not planning for steady diet of 2" brads but it's nice to have the option.
Was at Home Depot today and took a look at the Ridgid R213BNE that Tom suggested. Seems to have a decent feature set for $90 with a three year warranty.
Pros: dry-fire lockout, rear exhaust,...
I thought about the Bosch when Menards had them for $78 ($89 now). But these are a special order item.
Below is a picture of the previous Senco 25XP. I think I saw this one locally with the...
Greg do you (or anyone else) know the if current Senco FinishPro 25XP with red body is better or worse than the previous version with the grey body and power selector on the head?
Simple Green mixture in a bucket and use a deck brush or small broom?
I’m looking for recommendations on an 18-gauge brad nailer that can handle 2 inch fasteners.
I currently have a Porter-Cable BN125A for up to 1-1/4 inch 18g brads and a Senco 23SXP for up to...
Given the 19" centers, I would go for the bigger ladder with a 30-1/2" wide rough opening. Plus the load rating would be around 350-lbs.
Since the ceiling is open, use a joist hanger at the...
