Cool Old Tools

Thanks for the video Mike

It's a pretty straightforward process after watching that video, now to make a holder and give it a try

Yep, it's not difficult. Pretty relaxing to do, I think, as you have to focus on skipping each tooth. Only took me about 20 minutes or so, and I was taking my time.

I picked up this old Clipper Tool Co. "Neverbreak" saw vise and an old Morrill saw set at estate sales over the last couple of years. They both still work great.

One time years ago I was at a garage sale and a woman who was selling her late husbands things had a saw vise similar to that shown above. I picked it up and was looking at it when she asked me if I knew what it was. I told her it was a vise for holding handsaws for sharpening and she just stood there with her mouth open. "Oh, she said, I have been using it clamped onto my table to hold my recipe cards when I am baking."

OC, I thought mine was a small sheet metal brake when I picked it up at the estate sale. I thought that might be handy, so I bought it ( a couple of bucks, IIR). It wasn't until I got home and researched the name that I found out it was a saw vise. That made me happy, as I think I will use a saw vise more than a sheet metal brake.

I started using this old ball-peen hammer the other day. I had not paid attention to the maker's mark because when I got it, the hammer was completely cover in heavy rust. I had put it away after cleaning the rust off of it then soaking it in oil and never saw the maker's mark before it away and all of a sudden, ... I noticed that it was made in England ... I reckon' that makes it a keeper....

Latest estate sale finds.

A Craftsman "Flying V" 1/4 ratchet set. The flying V selector ratchets were made 1959 to 1966. Complete except missing the 6" extension.
A Lufkin 100 ft steel rule.
A large can of 3 in 1 oil - it's about 3/4 full (I like these old metal cans).
A complete set of Craftsman Professional quick connect drill bits (made in the USA).

Great finds Unk!! My buddy who owns a vehicle dealership said that the Craftsman Professional line was top of the line years ago when they were made.

I've been using these tools lately for some 'lill projects I've been trying to finish up. I love tools from Sweden!!!
