    Got a hammer at a pawn shop . It's one of the squaty ones like on here looks like a squished mini sledge like a roundin hammer I guess. Say+800-36+ on the side . Or +869-36+

    The cool part is after you told me whats in it I went back to look for what you said haha , it's like where's Waldo . What clear do you use? I've had clear lacquer last great and some peel out of the same can with the same prep.

    looks neat I bet your a master at puzzles the way all the pieces fit haha, sad too see vintage tools getting used though. Cant wait to see the next one
  8. Jimmy Wallbanger
    wow its one of those "its so obvious why didnt I think of it" ideas! haha freakin love the idea

    these are very cool, but I hate seeing old working tools getting used for art. I mean if its too rusted or shot to use I understand. but alot of guys take wrenches that survived world wars and depression only to be made useless for fun. I did notice your wrench ends for the claws looked like china stock. More to ya for that haha

    looks a lot like a cool splitting maul to me. Very cool either way. the way I break splitting handles it would be nice to have one like that

    Hah I started a thread about a vise and it ends up being an English lesson . Well sorry I called it a stump vice. A real stump vice by the way is this goofy looking thing you hammer into a stump to clamp your chainsaw bar into for service and sharpening . Think I saw a picture of a " leg " vice " on a stump and that's how I remembered it

    Thanks for the input guys and ill look mr. Turley . Was wondering what markings to look for thanks! Yeah I realized the spring was ton after looking at some posted pics . Will see what is around the shop Monday to make one
  13. Jimmy Wallbanger
    Oh it was $65 fn flea market tax
  14. Jimmy Wallbanger
    Threads in and out smooth but it's got a few pits and the jaw is tweaked a little. Not markings I see and what is the double bevel below the thread for? Above the hinge
  15. Jimmy Wallbanger
    That is cool! The adjuster nut is gone rusted hah !
  16. Jimmy Wallbanger
    Is $60 too much for a decent post vice? Saw one at a flea market just didnt have any money
  17. Jimmy Wallbanger
    Wow thanks for all the ideas guys wood would have been my last thought. Got a few ideas layn around . My buddy has a ton of thick scrap but I don't want to be that kind of friend . To be honest I have a radio flyer in the scrap pile that would be perfect and fits the angle iron table I have but sadly it'll be a 2 stroke go kart one of these days. Bought some 20 mule borax today too!

    Some washer and dryers are galvanized in side nuts right! Had a wirpool lid that was porclien coated but I cut it up would have worked great but it's part of a welding cart now. Guess ill just use the mower deck push mower has developed a knock . Riding mower is even worse haha so I have so options there
  19. Jimmy Wallbanger
    Found a monkey wrench in the scrap pile if its handle is forged could I beat it into something useful ? The adjustment nut is rusted away.

    Rail Road Spike Axe
    Did you bend the spike at a 90deg before you hammered it out to get the beard?
  21. Jimmy Wallbanger
    Thank you sirs and or mams, tray it is . I'd like something thicker and have access to to all kind of metal tools but a 1.5 foot square of 1/2 inch at the scrap yard would probably set me back 50-100 $around here
  22. Jimmy Wallbanger
    On my break drum forge does it need a tray around it? What's the point? Just to hold xtra coal? Thought of using a push mower deck or cutting my riding mower deck in half it's a 3 blader and give half to my buddy for his.
  23. Jimmy Wallbanger
    Asked a buddy if he had anything I could use As an anvil . He said hey do you want this anvil :) that's a good friend haha forge is in process sadly the dryer blower I got exploded when it fell out of the vise when test wiring it. The anvil is ruff but I have other random steel chunks too . The horn was broke off?! No torch marks . It's a wright 1 0 17 no idea what weight that is 130 ish ? Base is 4 5x5 posts 19" high worked on it tonight not finished.
