So I am going through and restoring this old wilt-o-matic. The laundry list of repairs is long. However after looking at some catalogs on here I am confused. I found that they have one point for the attachment of the hose but I have one and what looks like a damaged part below it on the casting...

Yeah I have a 2 year old silver and a 13 year old blue. I had a 14 year old that passed away two years ago. They are exceptional dogs. I wish I could trust the young one more in the shop. Sent from my iPhone using Garage Journal

I will cut you some slack since your apparently a fan of my dog as well. QUOTE=turbowoodworker;9039420]Another great thing about building your own bench is the opportunity to do all sorts of little additions, like a deadman to hold long planks against the face when planing, or a pop up planing...

Again man I wasn’t trying to disparaging your knowledge. I have had several people try to compare World War I and world 2 military axes with this one that’s is clearly made by a blacksmith to the ones that are mass-produce obviously aren’t going to conform to it so I was hoping for someone to...

Again that the point it’s clearly not a mass produced item. I have been collecting axes and hatchet for a while. I have had enough tools also from this era to say that it was common for camp blacksmiths to make or repair tools as needed. I am not saying your wrong but seems like your guessing...

Has anyone ever run across one of these. I have been blacksmithing(for a living) for a while. I know it’s 100% hand forged. It’s stamped similarly to other tools I have made for the military around the civil war. The S.S may refer to a naval steam ship but haven’t been able to verify that. I had...

You can find stuff anywhere you just have to change tactics. I found along time ago one of the best things you can do in rural areas is go to the local feed store ask them if you can put a flyer saying your looking for old tools(anvils, benches etc) I have had opportunities to buy stuff plenty...

Stabilized is a general term I use. It refers to the basic process of preserving the wood. That can include the process of gluing, infusing,repairing and replacing the wood to prevent any more deterioration. The benches were never uniformed so wood use was generally what was most cost effective...

Sorry that’s a horrible suggestion. These benches are regularly extremely dry. That much heat will likely cause splits and cracks in the wood. The process to restores these have to be done carefully. That normally requires disassemble, striping of paint with abrasives adding oils to the wood and...
