I am a carpenter by trade and use electric power tools out of necessity. But I have a keen interest in the old ways and have always collected antique or old style woodworking tools. Things like draw knife, chisels, brace, crank drills.
Currently I have a brace, a 4 Jack plane, a yankee drill (need a few more bits), a good drawknife.
I don’t have a large collection currently but I am always keeping an eye out for new additions. Things on my radar currently are a large gouge chisel 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 size. A block plain, and another Jack plane. Some bits for my hand brace. An egg beater drill. Oh, a spoke shave. And of course axes. I’m always checking yard sales for such.
Anyways I’m wondering if anyone else enjoys this hobby? Pictures of vintage tools always welcome.
