My First Viewer Mail, Arnfest 2018 Swapmeet, New Shop Tools

A huge "Thank You" to Ron and Jeff for gifting me some great tools for the workshop. Also, I share some tools I picked up at the last Arnfest Swap Meet.

Those belt sanding machines are sick! You have some cool tools!

Thanks for the shout out Jeff. Very glad I could help you out. The first carbide tool is a 35* diamond and the second is a 55* diamond. Jeff

Thanks again, Jeff.

That two man saw was described by my Uncle as a slow death for a man having to use that very long or often, but in the early 1920's not very many small farmers had a chain saw so the two man crosscut was the tool of the day.

[@JeffHeathTheVintageWorkshop]

Yes. At the time, it was a great tool innovation vs. using an axe. I enjoy using handtools, and in many instances, they are just as fast, or even faster, and more accurate in the hands of a skilled user, over the time it takes to setup a machine for one or two cuts. That being said, I definitely will be sticking with the chainsaw. Thanks for watching.

Nice to see a video here right now I will not complain about our temperatures here int he California desert anymore, no I still will it is what Americans do. The sanders do look really neat called a locomotive style you share, interesting we see it in the vented nose. Really nice organizer drawers from Huot. Thank you for the video.

[@JeffHeathTheVintageWorkshop]

Thanks for watching.

You might want to switch the heat to the “on” position! Lol!

[@JeffHeathTheVintageWorkshop]

I heat with the woodstove. Nothing to turn "on". It's just a thermostat for temperature. Thanks for watching.

[@srip63]

Winter bbbrrrrrrrrrr!

[@JeffHeathTheVintageWorkshop]

You've got that right! -22° here tonight.

Do you have a saw vise and tooth set? I bought an auction lot and have one to spare.
