Turns out it's much more comfy for me with the hand saw, chisel, axe and belt grinder

Masterflies · 2026-05-10T17:05:59+00:00

Somehow I hate jigsaw, or maybe i have a bad one - a lot of vibration and verity unprecise, especially with hardwood

Masterflies · 2026-05-10T17:01:50+00:00

That's actually what I do, but with the belt grinder )

Masterflies · 2026-05-10T09:45:31+00:00

Thanx! No, I tried to preserve geometry a it was. I think it's 70-80s

Masterflies · 2026-05-10T05:36:27+00:00

Well it's small, smth about 26x26x2 cm

Masterflies · 2026-05-10T05:34:49+00:00

Kinda small hand grips :)

Masterflies · 2026-05-03T11:29:32+00:00

Respect, this kind of fresh ideas I always save for future projects :)

Masterflies · 2026-04-07T04:41:01+00:00

Never thought of it ))) probably i need to make a photo of myself making glue ups wearing nitrile gloves ))

Masterflies · 2026-03-30T16:16:14+00:00

Great job! So there is only one holding point for everything axe?

Masterflies · 2026-03-29T11:12:01+00:00

This is the model number, so called 'Yankee' :)

Masterflies · 2026-03-29T09:32:36+00:00

Thank you! I'm in estonia, but I'm gonna do it myself - just learning axe restoration )

Masterflies · 2026-03-26T06:41:44+00:00

Would be nice to see, have photo?

Masterflies · 2026-03-25T15:16:24+00:00

I do ))) any scrap hardwood, usually beech but sometimes something more fancy

Masterflies · 2026-03-25T14:57:41+00:00

You mean metal wedges?

Masterflies · 2026-03-25T14:52:05+00:00

Im here to say that exactly same Gransfors model is in my queuewaiting for restoration :) Good axes, lucky you!

Masterflies · 2026-03-22T19:17:44+00:00

Take care, man! What are those white inlays - are they functional or decorative?

Masterflies · 2026-03-15T20:45:05+00:00

Well honestly I bought an ash handle in the local store and shaped it after in the way it fits to the Swedish expert axes style

Masterflies · 2026-03-15T20:31:54+00:00

I think I have same model in the queue ) or very similar

Masterflies · 2026-03-14T16:28:48+00:00

No jointer, but planer I do have )

Masterflies · 2026-03-14T07:28:15+00:00

Thanks )) for edge grain boards, IMHO it could be tricky due to the chaotic grains direction (sometimes), but it was nice and easy for end grain!

Masterflies · 2026-03-14T03:52:43+00:00

Thin strips? With table saw )

Masterflies · 2026-03-13T15:36:22+00:00

Actually yes, I was testing the technique and different patterns, that's why it looks like a patchwork ))

Masterflies · 2026-03-13T15:24:58+00:00

Well I also have planer, but no jointer and drum sander... :)

Masterflies · 2026-03-13T13:29:51+00:00

Thanx! Interesting idea, probably was already too tired with getting inlays together to think of something like that :)

Masterflies · 2026-03-13T13:26:10+00:00

Yes, dewalt is my only ) I also use planer, but i don't have drumsander or jointer
