Yesterday, I went to use my lump hammer, and as is the fate of all wood handled hammers, found the head loose, if only slightly. The good folks @crucibletool send along a metal wedge to fix this inevitability. I used my fathers’s old and beaten lump hammer in a fit of sentimental continuity to beat the wedge in place (Owe, my shoulder. Next time buy a sledge.) A little filing, a touch of sanding, and a bit of Anarchist’s Daughter soft wax, and it’s ready for the foreseeable future. #isthisstillwoodworking #whisperworkshop #whisperworkshop2023 #woodwork #woodworking https://www.instagram.com/p/CofFZSrLXxP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

LEDs in, fluorescents out. I’m calling this done for now. When I put it in place I’ll give it the old once over. #whisperworkshop #whisperworkshop2023 #allledallthetime #oldthingsnewagain https://www.instagram.com/p/CoIokSgparv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Next up, le handle. Here’s to hoping that Lee Valley will be a great steward of these products. #violinknife #ronhocktools #whisperworkshop2023 #whisperworkshop https://www.instagram.com/p/CnwoBVWLLSw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
