#mortisechisel

I'm building a new workbench and handtools are being used a lot. I got myself 2 new sets of chisels for the job - mortise (https://lddy.no/gc68) and skew (https://lddy.no/gc6a) and am having lots of fun. I'm trying to buy from family businesses, especially these days, cus they are in trouble and Jeff is already the richest person on this planet. #chisels #chisel #mortisechisel #walnut #skewchisel #clamps #clamp #plane #maple #hammer #mallet #square #mortise #tenon #mortiseandtenon #legs #leg #base #workbench #byhand #ebanisteria #woodworking #imadeit #joinery #woodjoint #woodjoints #outfeedtable #outfeed #maker (at Alexandria, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_crLkBDP30/?igshid=1pqce15q8gr7a

I had a chisel ferrule crack and I spent an hour last Tuesday night making a replacement out of some scrap brass on the metal lathe. The replacement turned out better than the original and is 2x as beefy. Should last a century or so. Threw up a short video of the whole process on the Tube if you want to see. #toolrepair #brassferrule #imadeitmydamnself #mortisechisel #smallyoutuber #notamachinist https://www.instagram.com/p/B72p_dqgE0R/?igshid=1ab1ls16vynur
