Seems he went downtown tonight....just to get some chinese takeout to eat....Apparently had to wait on it.....a certain store is right next door.....

 

This is what he brought back..besides the fried rice and shrimp

About $7-$8 a piece.  One handle was MIA, and a knob was in need of a bit of work.. Cleaned the chucks off

Hmmm, the one in front has Millers Falls Co. stamped all around the chuck.   Seems to have been "Blued" at one time?   The other two are clones of each other, haven't found a name on either..yet

The missing handle I'll fix later.  Involves some fancy glueing and drilling, and some spokeshave work....not tonight.    As for that ugly knob?

LOL...take your pick.   Anyway, them nails just had to go.   Pulled them, and found a strip of packing tape inside...it was tossed as well.  Oil on some moving parts, found some small screws, and some fresh wood to screw into... it might just work..

A wipe on of BLO on the wood.   Ratchet works now, and is oiled up.  Couple of the others are also oiled up in the moving parts.  Maybe a day or two, I might make a handle for that other one.   Then paint it RED.

 

Somebody trained my Grandson right....

You're going to need a bigger work shop!

I agree with Lew!!
