Wannabe Posted May 20, 2016 Share There was everything you could think off, augers, planes, hand drills, coping saws, saws, files, rasps, different types of hammers, single and double pin marking gauges, you name, it was there. You are right, I'm a right real MUPPET!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 20, 2016 Share This is my next project. Nothing fancy, just simple home-laminated roofing lumber Then a new coffee table, and some shelving for the home office. Then open kitchen shelving to replace the upper BIC's, also roofing lumber. It's cheap and hardy. I also want to make some adirondack chairs and a bench for outside once I've redone the garden. Just the time that's lacking. Wannabe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dev null Posted May 20, 2016 Share Caliper & set square to the right of the planes. Don't know if there is any meaning to the G. G stands for God/Geometry/Gnosis, depending who you ask, nobody is really sure. The US, especially among artisans, journeymen and others have a rich history of involvement with the Freemasons, which is why the maker of this chest went to the trouble of inserting their insignia.
