I have a pair of those that are placed on the shingle's farthest
reaches.
Yep, two end froes.

God may very well strike me down for that one...

From 1-8;
Fluorescent light tester-
no

Shingle Froe-
Yep-- but no beetle with which to drive it
I have built a schnitzlebank to shave the shingles down on, though.

Crane 812 Super Saw
First one I've ever seen.- neat

Arbortech Power Chisel
I'll stick with my twitching tool

Stanley #1 Odd Jobs-
Don't know if it is a #1- but I saw one a few years ago and couldn't
pass it up. It's in the box.

Adze
indeed!

Channelock rescue tool
Good to see they still make these oddities- don't have one, but I'd be
tempted at a garage sale.

timber scribe-
Maybe I'm tired- or maybe that's just a bad picture, but I'm not
feeling 'timber scribe' -

Cool tools-
Jim

That timber scribe looks like a big version of my plastic
scribing/cutting tool. I cut a groove in the plastic then
snap in two along the cut. ^_^

You can use your twitching tool to undercut door jambs. I've done it and it
works swell.

I was using a froe just the other day splitting bamboo for the front
of the tiki bar

So when is the a-h-r Mai Tai party? Is your bamboo local or can you
get it from a lumberyard?
