Butterflies hold the two pieces 1/2" apart. All work on this piece was done with hand tools, except a few cuts with the table saw for the legs. The slab was cupped badly after drying in our Canmore climate, and instead of planing it flat, I ripped it length wise, planed the two pieces individually, then reattached them with the walnut butterflies.

This is the upstairs wood shop in my garage. It aint pretty but it gets the job done.

 

These 2 tire irons were standard issue tools sold with every Ford Model A automobile ever manufactured. Both irons are 10" long and were made to be used together to remove and install the slender Model A balloon tires.

 

The tire spoon with the square cutout on the end for adjusting the braking system is clearly marked "FORD A." The flat iron is unmarked for some reason. The Marked iron was manufactured for The Ford Motor Company by The K. R. Wilson Company. These two have been together for a very long time stored in a crumbling to bits (and really dirty) cotton bag, which I've passed along to the compost pile.

 

If you're lucky enough to own a Ford Model A and are looking for the basic tools, these two are a good start.

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.

The Beach Pea is a D.N. Hylan design. www.dhylanboats.com/beachpea_plans.html

 

She is built glued lapstrake of marine plywood, and, at 13 feet long with a 4' 4" beam, can be very easily trailered even by a light vehicle. She weighs about 140 pounds, and draws 3 inches with the centerboard up and about 1 foot 6 inches with the board down.

 

Beach Pea was built by the 2011 Contemporary (wood composite) class under the direction of instructor Bruce Blatchley, and is used locally nearly every day by her owner.

My husband adds lots of things he collects to the garage and still tries to navigate it on foot. 3-08-09

It has become increasingly difficult for me to pick up good, solid metal hand planes. They seem to have vanished from the face of the earth.

So I was happy when this one appeared. It is a Type 19 Stanley no 4. Not the hottest plane on the planet but made during times when Stanley was still trying to put some effort into handtools. It is well made with even castings, the rosewood handles have survived without scars and the japanning is still about 90 percent. And although the cutter has been sharpened a few times there's still plenty of meat in it.

The name "Rogue Automotive" is synonymous with some of the most off-the-wall high-performance cars in the western hemisphere. From estate cars with vertical doors, wedged-shaped offroaders, to even what can only be described as a formula one car with indicators, everything in Rogue's lineup has its own distinct-yet-familiar flavor of insanity. Helping with that insanity further is the fact that its rather difficult to find a Rogue model that *doesn't* have a horsepower number breaking 4 figures. All this crazy is probably why it didn't take Rogue long to garner world-class prestige and a following that allowed it to build more vehicles outside of super-limited bespoke hypercars like the Firepower GT that started it all. The thing is; however, the Firepower GT isn't actually where it all begins. It doesn't even start with Rogue Automotive which is only one piece of a corporate empire. That empire being the industrial juggernaut that is Rogue Industries.

 

Turn the clock back even further to the 1950s, and you'll find a humble manufacturer by the name of Prairie State Manufacturing. Born in the outskirts of Chicago, Prairie State Manufacturing would rebrand itself into Rogue Industries in the 1980s after decades of building itself up as a serious player in the heavy equipment manufacturing sector. From tractors, dump trucks and road graders, to turbines and marine powerplants, even defense products like APCs and minesweepers, the sight of the snarling wolf on Rogue's logo is a common sight anywhere some heavy metal is needed. It even doesn't end there, as Rogue also has branches for electronics and handtools. By the early 2000s, Rogue took another leap that would further extend their reach into the industrial sector by producing on-road trucks. The first one Rogue made, the RHT1011, was a class 8 vocational commercial truck. A large, far cry from the kind of machines Rogue would eventually produce, but one can see the sort of "domino effect" Rogue would put on themselves by building a machine that could be driving on public roads. Rogue would build more commercial trucks that would noticeably get smaller and smaller until something truly unexpected happened in 2028. The trademark for "Rogue Automotive" was filed, and shortly after Rogue announced their intention of getting into the wider automotive industry with a new pickup truck platform. A mass-produced utility automobile made by Rogue, a company known for making robust and dependable machines, was understandably met with great anticipation. And that anticipation only reached a fever pitch when that truck was finally unveiled.

 

Rogue called the truck the "Koshuké", which is word for bison in the Potawatomi language. The Potawatomi are a Native American tribe of the Great Plaines region, of with Rogue Industries calls home. The Potawatomi are known for their "Seven Grandfather Teachings", one of which is "Honesty". Rogue designed the Koshuké with that teaching in mind from the start. The Koshuké was designed first a foremost to be a worker's truck with no unnecessary thrills that would complicate it. While it is meant to be sold to a general customer base, the standard variation of the Koshuké is set up to really be a fleet vehicle: regular cab, long bed, few luxuries, and an interior you can clean out with a garden hose and hand mop. Being a worktruck it won't exactly be setting any speed records but it is surprisingly spry. The Koshuké comes standard with a hybrid powertrain; a 2.4L turbocharged 4 cylinder combined with an electric motor. The combustion engine drives the rear wheels while the electric motor goes to

the front, giving the Koshuké 4WD. For long highway drives the combustion engine can be disengaged so that the Koshuké can be full-electric. With both systems together, the Koshuké produces over 300 HP. Power like this makes it quicker than expected. 0-60 comes in at just over 6 seconds, and top speed is limited to 120 MPH. Not bad for something so utilitarian, but high-speed performance is clearly not what the Koshuké is for. As stated before, it was designed first and foremost to be a workhorse, and that's a role it plays well.

 

Rogue's experience in making industrial machines means plenty of experience designing strong and robust platforms. That hybrid powertrain the Koshuké has may only have 310 HP, but where is shines is the torque figure. Thanks to its electric component putting in a fair share of work, the Koshuké has up to 570 ft/Ibs at its disposal. This beefy torque figure gives the Koshuké an impressive towing capacity of up to 14,000 Ibs. If you're not towing anything and only hauling stuff in the rear bed, you'll still be impressed with what the Koshuké has to offer. The 7 ft bed offers plenty of storage space, which can carry up to 3,000 Ibs. With 12 total tie-down points you can also be sure whatever you load in the back will be tightly secured. 2 different electrical outlets also means you can utilized the Koshuké to power tools and other machinery, or even act as a generator in more taxing situations. 9 inches of ground clearance means the Koshuké won't have much trouble hauling your cargo over more difficult terrain, though the standard Koshuké won't exactly be running in the Dakar rally anytime soon. A full 360 degree camera system comes standard to help the driver in tight areas, and blind zone alerts make sure you don't hit anything while making maneuvers when towing. While the Koshuké is advertised as being low thrills, the ones it comes with are the ones a working man would likely want, and don't detract from its very respectable capabilities for its class.

 

When the Koshuké first appeared in 2031, it had alot going against it despite the positive reception from the mere fact that Rogue was building a pickup. Competing marques like fellow American brands Thunderhead and Nomad, and even Japanese automaker Yamato made the pickup market hard to break into. The Koshuké, however, filled a niche for a basic, affordable truck that was very dependable thanks to Rogue's experience in building the toughest work machines around. It wasn't too long until the Koshuké was a central figure in the pickup truck market, but that's not what makes it so important. Rogue Automotive is quite possibly the biggest name in high-performance automobiles in the western hemisphere, and certainly one of the biggest in the world. Their supercars are some of the best on the market, but those supercars would've never existed if it wasn't for the Koshuké practically paying for their development. Rogue's current legacy was more or less built on the back of this humble truck, and that's likely why despite Rogue's lineup mainly consisting of high-performance machines, the Koshuké can still be found amongst them nearly 30 years after its debut. Obviously updated over the years and with much more variants, but still the same honest workhorse at its heart.

Strobist info: Shot after sunset. I had a Canon 550EX Speedlite atop a light stand, raised about 7 feet, right of camera. The Speedlite was fired through a Chimera 12x16 mini softbox (wish I'd bought that YEARS ago). I believe the power setting was 1/8th power. The other 550EX Speedlite was under the hood, and aimed at the firewall (24mm zoom setting on the flash). I had a perry sky blue cellophone over that flash, and it was fired at 1/128th power. Both Speedlites were triggered with Pocket Wizards. I wanted her to lean over like she was going to work on the car (yeah, right in that dress), but the radiator was scalding hot. So we settled for more of a static pose. (It was still over 100 degrees when this was taken.)

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 0. Despite there only being one nail in the picture, it actually comes in five different finishes: Nickel (as shown), brass, black, French Natural, and copper.

I am currently working on the studio floor, using a 19th century wooden handplane, it works just as well as the day it was made.

This is an atomizer, made by Mohawk. It is a very inexpensive and easy to use tool for spray-applying Leather Spray Grain (M870-9400). It has 2 tubes positioned at 90 degree angle. One tube is the mouthpiece while the other is the dip tube. The user blows through the mouthpiece causing liquid to be pulled through the dip tube and atomized into a sprayed mist. It is fast and convenient to use because it doesn't have to be hooked to a compressor or an aerosol power pack. Atomizers are most popular for applying Leather Spray Grain, but some technicians also use it to apply Touch Up Pigment and Top Coat over their repairs.
