  1. Ball Peen Hammer Restoration

    The video is more how to make one than just showing the handle. View on YouTube I got a neat little ball pein hammer head over the weekend, no makers mark of any kind on it. I also got some nice pieces of padauk from the scrap bin and I wanted to put them to use. The head when I got it...

  2. Tool chest ? ....

    The chest is made out of cedar, salvaged from an old corner cabinet disassembled 20 years ago when we moved to our current house. Fortunately I kept the lumber in the attic for all this time. I have been researching for a tool chest since a couple of months ago. (I don´t know why surfing the...

    LOTS of pics/reading to follow just FYI Video is here if you prefer not to read. View on YouTube This project is one that took a while to complete. Arguably the hardest part of it was just finding the time to build while working full time and being married! I had wanted a sort of "bench...

  4. Mahogany Machinist ToolBox

    A Custom sized machinist toolbox to house lathe tools including larger quick change tool holders, threading toolings, centers, chucks, and other gauges and machining tools. I was not able to find any toolbox that would fit some of my tools so decided to make my own, while at it, why not use...

  5. Thanks, Harry...

    Hello. My name is Matt. These are my first woodworking "projects." The title of this post, is an homage to Harry Gerstner. One day, about 10 years ago, I saw a Gerstner tool chest for the first time and remember screaming on the inside, "WHAT IS THAT?!! I want one." Then I learned how proud Mr...

    This is a bed I built for my Boys a few years ago. I had just got divorced and the kids were pretty stressed about having to split time between the X's house and mine. I built this bed for them to help ease their pain. Turned out pretty good too if I say so myself!!! I got the design from...

    So I've heard all the stories about the old timers using motor oil to treat their fence posts. I've heard that this can make the posts last for decades. But I've also heard all the worries about it harming the soil on the land. I'm a young college student that cant afford to go buy a bunch of...

    I took Machine Technology in college. I'm kind of interested in working with wood instead of metal. What all would I need to have a setup and what kind of wood is used? Where would I get the wood from? Is there much money to be made making and selling wood crafts? I would think what I learned in...

    This is another uncommon tool in very fine condition. The Stanley 39 1/2 with the brass top, from the Sweetheart era, in this condition, is quite rare. This one is 6" long and the bubble is in terrific working order. The brass and steel have a nice patina and have not been over cleaned. A...

    A while back I got a killer deal on a few tubs of goodies. I ended up with several high end gauges, a 3/4 horse variable speed, reversible DC motor and controller, 123 blocks, a slew of HSS cutters for a machinist's lathe and on and on, for around sixty bucks. Some of the things I'll sell at...

    This is a simple question that I'm sure is going to make a lot of lathe owners laugh. I am building a really simple spring lathe but one of the first things that will get located is the tool rest and it won't be movable. So I need to know, what is the height of the tool rest supposed to be...

    Hi All: Long time lurker, first time contributor. I've found LJ to be a wonderful resource as I've begun the woodworking journey. As my handle indicates, I'm relatively new to woodworking. I just recently moved into a single family home in Chicago with a 400 sq ft garage-quite the luxury in...

    I have been refurbishing my late grandfather's machinist chest. The veneer on the inside of the lid cupped to the point of splitting. I peeled the entire length off, and did my best to get glue underneath and good clamping pressure with cauls, but there's still one point in the middle that...

    Design - Feedback Welcome I've seen machinist toolboxes here and elsewhere a couple of times, but never felt they would be useful for my woodworking needs as they seem to be aimed at organizing smaller items/tools/etc, so I never paid much attention to these boxes. With my recent interest in...

    Design Shortly After completing the toolbox that was posted here: I realized that I'll need some setup to hold the larger tool/components/etc as it just won't fit into the small toolbox. I looked around at kennedy, snap-on, and other similar toolcarts and they are either too big or too $$$...
