For a greener alternative to foam, try densified dacron or Marshall Spring Units.
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.

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.

This is a picture featuring probably the best woodworking tool I own, a Lie-Nielsen jack plane. I don't think I'm worthy of it, but I'm trying to be. I was shaving some paper thin slices off this walnut board and thought it might make a good shot. The image also features a lignum vitae mallet I turned a long time ago, and the bench I made in (you guessed it) 1994.

Ancient axes & adzes date back to 8000BC when reindeer antlers were sharpened to form a cutting edge. Later on the stump end was hollowed out to hold a piece of hard stone or flint. Antler and wooden handled combination axes first appeared about 6000BC.
Copper and Bronze axes and adzes developed after 3000BC in the Middle East. Iron axes similar in shape and size to the form we know today, developed sometime between 500-200BC. During the Middle Ages, axes & adzes were developed into many different shapes and forms and shapes.
It was not until the Eighteenth Century that advancements made in saw design finally led to a slow decrease in axe use, although some estimate there are some 45 different types of axes used for various trades, including coopering, boat building and logging.
Nowadays, Northern Tool features axes as part of its lineup of logging accessories, that includes a 12-lb. all-steel Truper Axe for splitting logs, a general purpose double bit Roughneck Axe and an all-purpose 2-lb. Camp Axe. The humble axe remains one man's most versatile hands tools that have bested the test of time.
having just finished restoring an old stanley no 78, I can now cut rebates, the blade took a lot of work getting it flat but it was worth it.

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.

Notes on the finish:
Four coats of Hope's 100% Tung Oil, first coat was a 50/50 mix with mineral spirits. Done over the span of three days.
Let dry for 36 hours and then work with 0000 steel wool.
Pad on a thick coat of clear shellac and let dry 12 hours.
Sand smooth with 400 grit sandpaper and then the steel wool.
Twice pad on thin layers of shellac. Did this with two bowls, one with shellac and the other with alcohol and a cotton cloth folded over a few times. Get the cloth wet with alcohol and then dip in shellac and brush/fly over the wood to apply. As needed, dip in alcohol and use to smooth out the now tacky shellac.
Let dry 12 hours and work with steel wool until as smooth as I can get it.
Then buff with paste wax to leave it with this wonderful shiny wet look.
Let dry another 36 hours.
Wrap and give to sweetie while drinking beer and eating oysters.
This is a pneumatic nail gun, but it's not just any pneumatic nail gun. It's a nail gun specifically designed for use on decorative nails (also known as decorative tacks, nail head, brads, upholstery nails, etc). It comes with many different tips of many different shapes and sizes so that it can fit almost any (normal) nail head. Also, the tip is specifically designed to not damage the heads of the nails! This gun is great for quickly tacking in nails on your furniture (or artwork, as some of our customers use our nails for).
