  FS: Stanley #20 8” Try Square
Posted by: pinsntails - 03-17-2024, 09:11 AM - Forum: Tool Swap N' Sell - Replies (1)

I have for sale a vintage Stanley #20 try square in the very useful 8 inch size with rosewood stock. It has been gently reconditioned into a good worker condition, including the edges of the beam have been lightly filed to remove nicks, so you can confidently run your marking knife along its edge without running into burrs. A previous owner bored a hang hole and stamped their initials K.K. on the beam. As you can see in the attached photo, it marks square on both inside and outside edges.


Asking $15 + shipping. Payment via Paypal, Venmo, or Zelle is preferred. Local pickup in the greater Cincinnati area is also an option.

  FS: Record 073 Shoulder Plane
Posted by: pinsntails - 03-16-2024, 09:40 AM - Forum: Tool Swap N' Sell - No Replies

 have for sale a Record 073 rabbet / shoulder plane in beautifully restored condition. This plane had surface rust when I got it about 20 years ago which I completely cleaned up. There is no pitting. Very sharp and ready to clean up tenon faces and shoulders, and cut rebates as you please. It has a wonderful heft in the hand and a joy to use. This is the venerable shoulder plane that Lie-Neilsen patterned their 073 Large Shoulder Plane after, which they sell for $350.

It’s been a faithful occupant of my toolchest, so I hate to part with it but it’s time to thin the herd. Asking $200 + shipping. PM me if you would like additional pictures. Payment via Paypal, Venmo, or Zelle is preferred. Local pickup in the greater Cincinnati area is also an option.

  FS: Two Stanley Block Planes – G12-060 and G12-020
Posted by: pinsntails - 03-16-2024, 09:35 AM - Forum: Tool Swap N' Sell - No Replies

I have for sale two Stanley block planes. They are made in England of relatively modern manufacture. The first is a G12-060, which has a 1 3/8” wide iron. The second is a G12-020 which has a 1 5/8” wide iron.

I purchased the G12-020 around 1970 or 1980 at a hardware store in the Dominican Republic. It has been fettled and used regularly as my carpentry block plane. The sole has a few minor scratches along one edge but has recently been lapped so there are no burrs.

I purchased the G12-060 used at a tool swap meet in Atlanta hosted by Highland Woodworking, this was around 1997 or so. I’m guessing this one is in the ‘80s vintage era but I’m just guessing. This one was my primary fine handwork block plan and has been well fettled and sharpened.

Both of these have the lateral adjuster distinctive of these models. Clean planes ready for trimming all your little parts and pieces and creating pretty chamfers on corners all day long. I can provide additional photos for a serious inquirer, just PM me.

Asking $35 for each + shipping. If you want both I’ll do a package deal for $65 + shipping. Payment via Paypal, Venmo, or Zelle is preferred. Local pickup in the greater Cincinnati area is also an option.

  Fred Hargis
Posted by: Grandpa Dave - 03-15-2024, 10:29 AM - Forum: Woodworking - Replies (8)

Posting here because I don't think Fred spends time in the basement. Mods/Admins feel free to move as appropriate.

Anyways, prayers for Fred, his wife and others in the Wapakoneta OH area. A major tornado struck there yesterday. Attempts to contact Fred by text, phone so far today and through another forum have yielded no reply. I'm hoping it's only a power, phoneline, or cell phone tower outage as a result of the storm. However, it appears Fred was 1/2 mile or maybe less from the center of the tornado. I saw a storm chaser video on YouTube last night following the storm. Scary.

I had the privilege to attend a meet and greet day hosted by Fred at his shop a few years back. Also met his wife. Great, hospitable people.

  Time & Tung Oil

Time & Tung Oil

Quote:Here is a piece that was made in 2018 and has aged beautifully.

"IMMEMORIAL TREE OF LIFE"

This piece is a 15 1/2" D Curly Cherry Platter. Was hand drawn, and lightly hand carved and then the image burned. I'm glad I finish with Tung Oil and dry for several months then did the carving work. then I used Deft sanding sealer then sanded back to 800 grit and hand buffed w/ a cloth. You can see that the lighter section stands out more that was carved after letting the Tung Oil dry, just before this photo was taken after I gave it a wipe of Daddy Vans bees wax and it really POPS! The last photo is what it looked like when I made it in 2018.

  Vacuum Pump
Posted by: Bill Holt - 03-14-2024, 07:39 PM - Forum: Woodturning - Replies (2)

I think I am interested in a vacuum pump for my Powermatic lathe.

I know of the advantages and that's about it.  Oh, and continuous run pumps are better.  Where do I get good information?  Obviously building your own saves $$$.  Do the pumps with the "vacuum pots" work for lathes?  As you can see, I have lots of questions.

  Laying tile
Posted by: EatenByLimestone - 03-14-2024, 06:53 PM - Forum: Home Improvement - Replies (15)

The house is getting resided. Project creep necessitated that the 42” wide by 30” deep entry be redone too. After I broke out the 3” of concrete (I thought it was only going to be 1/2”! I kept moving up in hammer size.) I put in 3/4” ply down to level and then the 1st layer of Hardybacker.

I noticed that the floor tips back toward the house ever so slightly when we got a hard rain last week. I’d like to correct that before covering everything up and forgetting about it until something exciting happens.

Gutters will soon be installed and that will effectively increase the overhang by 5-6” so it might not be an issue, but water being pushed back at the house is bad practice.

I will be laying another layer of Hardie down to cover a piece of trim I forgot about when I put the first layer down. Should I fix the slope with some thin set before I put the new Hardie down, or should I put the Hardie directly down on the old one, then add more thin set (thicker in back, thinner in front) under the tiles themselves?

All my previous tile work has been inside and I didn’t care if there was a little pitch to the tiles.

  FS: Delta 14” Drill Press Parts
Posted by: Rick_B - 03-14-2024, 03:16 PM - Forum: Tool Swap N' Sell - Replies (2)

I ended up with a DP 220 Delta drill press head (serial # 17-9362 year 1942) with a broken spindle pulley, no motor (I robbed it for another press), no depth stop and it didn’t fit the column I had. So a decision has been made to part it out. All prices are before shipping - most of the items are pretty small/light so shipping should not be outrageous. Some of the items are logical groups of parts that I would like to sell as one unit (an example is the motor mounting plate and hardware) - however let me no if you are interested in individual Items (for example the motor mounting plate hardware). If things are not selling in a few weeks I would be inclined ton split them up.

Due to inexperience I may be out of line on pricing for some items so - ALL PRICES ARE NEGOTIABLE – I am motivated to not put the items back on a shelf. Of course, bigger discounts for multiple items. I can also assist with delivery within a reasonable distance of Winston Salem, NC

Picture 1
A - Motor mounting plate and hardware - $12

Picture 2
B – Safety Collar - $15 SOLD
C – Head Lock - $15  SOLD
D - Quill Lock - $5
E – Switch on Head - $10
F – Slow Speed Pulley Bearing Retainer Plate and Screws - $5
G – Slow speed Spindle Pulley Sleeve and Cover - $25

Picture 3
J – Quill/Bearing Retainer Nuts/ Upper Spindle collar - $50

Picture 4
H – Pinion/Handle/Thumb Screw/Return Spring - $25

Picture 5
K – Spindle with Jacobs 6A 33 Taper Chuck (can’t get chuck off spindle – try your luck) - $30

Picture 6
L – WT Return Spring – Pinion hole on spring broke – case is good) - $5
M – Delta Return Spring – pinion end of spring bent – case is good - $5

I also have the head, table, table bracket, base and column (have not got the column out of the base yet) – didn’t think there would be much interest but let me know if you have a desire for them.

Thanks for looking
Rick
