Great to see you posting again. Happy to hear your able to be back in the shop.

Interested in seeing more on the Router Crafter extension. I bought one complete at a flea market a few years back. Still haven't used it.

I bought two and noticed either were used. I think it's the learning curve. Neither had a router on them. .

Mine was still in the original box. It did (does) have a 4"x4"x8"?? block of white oak in it. No router with it either but not an issue. From what I see them selling for on CL and eBay, I could make 4-5x over what I paid. Maybe I'll get a-round-2-it some day.

I bought one for $20. The second one still in the original box for $30. One sold the other day at a local auction for $58  with a router and router table..

 

I think the legacy, wood carver and router crafter fell thru the cracks in woodworking.

Anyone actually use one of these? Found on my Dad's box.

 

I've seen them, but forget what there for..

This is the Stanley No. 1 Odd Job, but same tool you have.

You sir have a pristine, highly desired Stanley no. 1 Odd Jobs first introduced in 1888. That is a keeper!

Big, expensive RED TOOLS opted to make their one time version of it last year. 

I've never seen one, but it's pretty cool!

Yeah it ain't going anywhere. Even found the box it came in.

Makes it even better Gunny. Your dad had a great eye and sense for rare tools.

None on eBay

Back ordered at G Wade

Dave, I clicked your red tools link and it looks like they lost theirs, it said "none found".

Messy bench, needs cleaned off..

Even that back corner..

Needs straightened out.....Even the tool chest needs work..

Need to build a rack or three, and a shelf..or two....

I think I can do better than this mess...

You just built that thing.

 

You never can have enough tool cabinets or shelves...or is that plane's or maybe clamps..well you get the idea.

I've given up. And look at this picture once in a while, remembering the good old days. A few decades ago I even wiped and zip-tied my extension cord after every use!

The Legacy Ornamental Mill has grown in to lots of CNC machines and is still made by the people who came out with the hand crank machine like the one I have..

   I get an e-mail every week or two on more schooling so I will be more savy.  Kinda like the Model T for that company is still going and growing.
