About time I did something with this...

I think it may need to be sliced up and a couple of handles made for my cabinet! Just little ones of course.

Just come out of soaking in oil this weekend.
Nice and happy now. The wood has quenched its thirst. One of my many current restoration projects. I just like turning old crap tools into nice looking and functioning new tools...

Dropped my marking guage off a top shelf and caught it - that was the good news, only a tiny cut (bad news) but I must remember not to catch sharp things when I drop them. I was drunk at a party once and smashed a glass bowl by accident - tried to catch it as it fell - opppss, off to hospital I was, very bad cut, lesson must be remembered.
