Title: Flea Market finds
Post by: lptools on April 28, 2024, 10:07:45 AM

Vise-Grip locking pliers , beefy Millers Falls Hacksaw Frame, 2 Starrett Protractors , S-K & C'man wrenches , Bridgeport Screwdriver , Watrous & Co. Drawknife , Kabar Rifle Knife ( unfortunate chip in the bone handle ) , C'man Chisel , Stanley Block Plane , and an X-Acto Saw Frame., small Radius Gage Set . The rusty , wedge shaped piece is a mystery to me!

Hello, JoeCB.Thanks for the reply. The handles on the drawknife do not fold inward , they are adjustable for different angles/positions! Ends of the frame are notched and mate with notches built into the handle ends!

Lou, How does the hacksaw adjust blade tension - or does it work at a preset tension?
