We all know who the elite history detectives are on this forum. So, when Lugs and RMT and 4cycle step in some subjects most of the rabbit hole has been dug out. But since I live down the road from High Bridge I had to jump in when I found this #4 Roebling wrench. Now some like me are proud...

Wow. But I do recognize, there is some metal involved. lol.

Let me know if you want to trade? Man, those would make my fingers 19 inches longer. Love em.

Thinking about you Don. Hope your just taking a break from the last get together😉.

I second what he said. But what I've found is to follow these threads and learn as you go. There is so much to learn. And when you find what tickles you, go down the rabbit hole and learn some more.

Very cool. Are they the original color?

French????

I told the wife to get ready. It's like the day I put it up. Back in the 1970s.

You can do it!

I like the stops idea other than the measurements. But I assume the stops could get in the way.

Very good Lou. I wish I could back up 30 years and join in. I have done a few but those days are behind me now. Very good.

I can see it.

Most likely mining rail. But some of the first RR rails were wood, and then they went to about that size rail. There was a big discussion on that subject on Smoke stack.

Another very cool project. Don't get dirty going down the rabbit hole.🤞

Very cool. That will get everyone down the rabbit hole.

Sorry. It's been 20 years since I rebuilt an old drill press. Someone will come along and speak up.

Welcome. And very cool and very good work.:cool:

Love it. THE IRON AGE. 1890. Now we know when it started.

I have a grinder that I have not used in years. but has fired right up when plugged in. It could use a good cleaning and some electric tape repair, but works good. I can't find the chuck, but probable find one on the net. Old school and I cannot make out the maker. $80.00 plus shipping.

Anyone want one just to say you have a Craftsman Hedge trimmer. The drill works okay but meant for a smaller drill. $25.00 plus shipping. Does not include drill chuck or extension. Thanks.
