October 30, 20214 yr Popular Post comment_273732 On the bench today is a Disston 8 TPI that needs some work.... I also ran across these today. Appears to be some kind of saw maintenance tools. They are stamped "Simonds Saw & Steel Co." I haven't had a chance to research them yet, but if anyone could give me hint as to what they are/do, I would appreciate it. Report

November 11, 20214 yr Popular Post comment_274891 Little different project. For shop doors I have French door style. Wanting to mount a couple items to the one door that is rarely used I made this panel to go over window. In looking at it I decided to have some fun and replicate with paint the window. Not ready to mount yet, couple more days to cure well. This is a picture of my dry fit. Report
