Thanks guys
Before I came down with reactive arthritis
I had a 50 year collection of what the wood workers call old iron tools made nearly a century ago. Kinda like the wrap around push pull cool.
I thought My hobby was over I was in a wheel chair an a walker for 8 months. And the doctors could not figure out my problem.
So too pay doctor bills all my tools were sold.
Finally a specialist in arthritis diagnosed me with Reactive arthritis an told me over time I would get just fine he was correct.
I got well I found some tools on Craigslist that you see in pictures I’m happy as Ross Shafers pig we see in his making chips videos! The End

The old craftsman from Old Mexico has just a few hand tools an doses not need power tools to build high quality instruments an furniture. It’s a old school craft an art of how too handed down form centuries past.
Give them a broken coke bottle or piece of glass an they will make a bored Smooth as glass. |

The paper over the door cut off a piece to protect work bench surface when spraying glue or paint. Don’t tell my wife I stole her Christmas paper.
Every think in my shop has a certain place to hang or hold by magnets an there never there when I reach for them an sometimes they never come home. Have you seen my fret
Hammer? |

Your milling machine and pillar drill really should be bolted down.
It's not a good idea to have those type of machines free-standing, as there is the possibility that they could overbalance in use. |
