Tools, random pictures of shop tools

Post your pics here.

I'm obsessed with vices lately:

 

[J. Doyle]

Those are some great vises for detail work Mark. It's really sad........but I have nothing of the sort. I should have bought or made something similar but I always end up improvising. Probably wasting a lot of time.

Good thread.

 

[Frank Hunter]

From a couple of years ago. I still put in a lot of late, late shifts. Lightbox at midnight

 

[J.Higgins]

Here's a blast from the past:



I hope to be making these again soon.

 

[J.Higgins]

Holy smokes, I didn't realize how many years ago I took this pic - look at that cell phone!

 

[Mike Martinez]

Mr. Higgins, I'm not sure what those are but I think I need one. what are they?

 

[Justin Presson]

I too, say hand tappers. Frank

Some of you guys remember when I was selling these little hand tappers about 10 years ago. I will begin making them again soon.

 

[J. Hoffman]

Ok, now that we have figured out they are hand tappers............can anyone tell me what a hand tapper is?

My tappers will hold taps from 6-32 to 0-80. A very handy item when tapping into Ti folder liners. You can feel every thread perfectly.





I want to apologize to anyone who may think that I am posting these for advertising purposes. I am not. In fact, it will most-likely be several months before I can gear up to build these again after the loss of my shop.

Can't wait till you have them up for grabs. Though, I hoping that they were a tube flaring jig or eyelet setter.

Here's my favorite shop tool ! I've been making Damascus for years by hand, but now since I have this over the past 4 years I'm spoiled.
