One day, on a whim, I added a hand hoe to an on-line purchase. I've tried all sorts of hand tools in the garden and have been disappointed almost every time. Like my cobra head weeder, most of them are gathering dust. Little did I know how much I would love this tool and how often I would use it. In fast, it's probably my most used garden hand tool.

Undoing a nut with an adjustable crescent spanner.

This is a decorative nail head, aka upholstery tack, decorative nail head, concho, decorative tack, brad, button, decorative nail trim, tack trimming, etc. These are regularly seen lining the edge of couches, chairs, lounges, ottomans, tables, etc. Decorative Nail Heads give your furniture that extra something. They just make it seem less plain. Furniture isn't the only place they can be used though. Most of our customers don't use them for furniture at all, in fact. They're artists, or designers, so they decorate their walls, arts and crafts projects, knives, bars, their artwork, mirrors, purses, and much, much more. You can find MANY different ways to use these. Interesting little gizmos in your every day life. See what you can find to do with them, and ADVERTISERS!, if you would like, we'll even advertise for you on our website. Take a look at www.furniturerestorationtoolsandsupplies.com. Right on the front page, we show anyone who visits our website what can be done with the decorative nail heads, and we're always looking for more, interesting ways of using them. Send pictures and your information to: sam@BrandtandWhitney.com, and we'll put them up on our website.

This particular nail head is called the 22H, and despite there only being one nail in the picture, it actually comes in two different finishes: Black Nickel (as shown), and oxidized.

This is from a "kiridashi" style knife. Probably some sort of utility knife. Possibly a leather tool.

 

I mostly uploaded this image for Kim Malmberg to see.

Doesnt come through well in the photo but the only flat surface on this bench is the bottom of the legs. All other surfaces and edges have gentle curves and contours. Did it all with handtools just for fun. The outside is smooth and the inside has texture, wonderful to feel. Made from Port Orford Cedar.

The School begins classes once each year, early in October. Students are divided into sections of 12 students each, and get two hours of classroom instruction and six hours of shop instruction per day, Monday through Friday 8am - 5pm.

 

Basic Boatbuilding is the focus of the first semester, which runs from early October to late December.

 

The instructors assume that most, if not all, students have no woodworking skills and proceed from that assumption. The skills taught in the first semester are those essential to boatbuilding, and the course, for that reason, is very "hands-on".

 

Students learn to sharpen and use all their tools, and participate in a wide range of individual skill-building exercises, from learning to make the joints commonly used in boatbuilding to a series of tools. Basic lathe work is taught. Students learn to draft and make a half-model. Then, working in pairs, they learn to loft a boat full-size on the floor. Finally, working, together as a team, the semester culminates in December as students work together to build a flat-bottomed skiff.

 

The Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding is located in Port Hadlock WA and is a private, accredited non-profit vocational school.

Our mission is to teach and preserve the fine art of wooden boatbuilding and traditional maritime crafts. We build both commissioned and speculative boats for sale while teaching students boatbuilding the skills they need to work in the marine trades.

Dovetailed tool chests, which boatbuilders would know as "shoulder boxes", are one of the many projects built in the Basic Boatbuilding class. We've built these boxes in every one of our 32 classes over the years since our founding in 1981.

 

Shoulder boxes were used to make it easier to carry the tools needed for the day's work to the job site. Students customize these boxes in all sorts of different ways.

Huge Pair Of Forged and Handcrafted Carpet Scissors/ Rug Sheers.

 

Napping sheers were designed to trim the very tips of the yarns on a newly handmade rug, creating a velvety smooth surface on the finished product.

 

This wonderful and rare antique iron hand tool measures 12.5" long. The cast iron fitted handle has a 3" inside diameter, so these were designed for a person with an average to small size hand to use and they are very comfortable to hold and to operate. I wouldn't be bit surprised if these were custom made for their original user. The blades are forged steel.

 

These wonderful old handmade carpet shears are tight and sharp and in amazing condition for their age. No nicks or chips on the blades at all. Clearly these were some artisan's most prized possession. Whoever owned these kept them for single use only; safe and in perfect working condition.

 

There's some very light surface rust on this beautiful set of napping shears, as they were carelessly stored in an unheated space for several years. (Their former owner would be spinning in his grave if he knew!) A quick cleanup and these old iron beauties and they're as good as new once more.

Handtools and straight edges. The only edge that is straight is the right hand edge of the pegboard courtesy of lens distortion.
