112838 | Jonathan Cunningham <dawfun@d...> | 2002‑12‑30 | Bio: Jonathan Cunningham |
GGs, Here's the obiligatory Bio info... I'm Jonathan Cunningham, and I've been lurking the list for a couple of years now (although, I was peeping in on rec.the.woodwork for a while, but those guys aren't really broadcasting on my frequency...if you know what I mean). Seems about time I pipe up and join the band here @oldTools. I've been Galootin' for about 3 years now, getting better at it all the time. While the gloatworthy scores are few and far-between, I have managed to amass a servicable collection of users over this period. Most recently I picked up a 110-pound museum-worthy chest of one British man's tools (moulders and chisels mostly...some other odds-n-ends I'll bore you all with later) from around 1850...but this is the rare occasion for me. I'm usually bottom feeding around town, or perusing the 'bay. You can have a peep at my modest makings so far at http://furniture.dawfun.com/. It's nothing grand, but it's a decent record of what I've been doing. When I'm not sharpening, or building, I'm enjoying my '70 bus, my '63 Thunderbird (http://www.seanet.com/~dawfun/tbird/) or my dogs (http://www.dawfun.com/3dogs.jpg). Anyway, that's enough for now. You'll learn more as time goes on, I'm sure. Enjoy, Jonathan Tacoma, WA http://furniture.dawfun.com/ |

OK...here's the goods. Pretty gloat-worthy, I'd guess. Practically all of these tools have the same owner's mark on them. The picture of the box isn't all that good, but it looks older than the tools...maybe 1800? http://furniture.dawfun.com/bin/gallery?tools.02 Enjoy, Jonathan Tacoma, WA Chris Winter wrote: > > >Most recently I picked up a 110-pound museum-worthy chest of one British > >man's tools (moulders and chisels mostly...some other odds-n-ends I'll bore > >you all with later) from around 1850... ... > > Welcome Jonathan, > .... > > Now where's the picture of the 1850's tool chest?! :) > > Best and welcome, > > Chris W. > ..just north of the big apple |
