A push drill or automatic drill makes the handmade complete.

Only took 4 trips through the attic. Just glad it wasn't summertime.
Exactly..!! Though I do use my drill press for drilling pin holes, and a drum sander for evening up the scales, after they've been rough cut.Quote:

A few have been finished since I took the pic.

My shorties are in a flower frog, in the shave den.[emoji6]
Well I even have a spoke shave :0 guess I found a new use for it.
And it seems I might have to get a few more of the old timer tools. Most wood work I've done has been mostly hand done.
Made my 2nd oldest sons high chair, no power tools at all.
Yup this could become a serious new addiction lol
Been going through some of my flea market finds and others the last few days and cleaning them up, doing whatever was needed to get them into the rotation. These three I made scales for using acrylic sheet, top to bottom a John Prince, a Christian & Son (Boston), and a Case Bros.

These were cleaned/polished, scales polished, some broken down then repinned. There's "Gun Metal" WJ Donovan (Mass.), "Mack" W.E. McDonald (Mass.), "Black Diamond" Vassili Thalis, a Howe 4/8ths, and a Genco Fluid Steel.

and finished up with this pair sent to me as bare blades and scales by a generous fellow who's been know to frequent these parts. A Friday and Monday Wilson & Son, they just needed a little cleaning, scales cleaned and polished and pinning. Thanks sharptonn!!!

I'm in for some quality time on the hones but these hollow grinds will be a nice change of pace from the recent wedges I was honing. Gotta "go easy" on these!
I think you will like that W.J. Donovan Tuzi. If it shaves like mine you will weep tears of joy when it comes up in rotation.
