    Let's see your axes

    Woodworking 101--Tools and Tips

    Would vacuum bagging the lumber work? Larvae or not they need oxygen don't they? It'd be easier to vacuum pack each slab for a while than trying to freeze them Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

    Bemis & Call H&T wrench

    They just naturally have good weight at the wrench end and who wants to go chase a hammer when you've got what feels like one in your hand. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

    Interesting old spanners. Questions

    You on the bottom side of the world have different names for things, lol. Those to some of us are end wrenches, spanners have pins that fit in notches or holes on the perimeter of a nut. Anyway, nice find! Sent from my SM-T310 using Tapatalk

    Any idea who made these drill bits

    I'm not any help on finding replacement tips but those are fairly easy to sharpen. Straightening the one with a bent tip might be a bit more of a challenge though Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk
