Group,

I recently gave a Power Point talk to the Cincinnati Woodworking Club on
‘Metalworking tools in the Woodworking Shop’. The Club has posted it on
their website in pdf.

THANK YOU!

That was a very informative and well put together presentation and I
learned some stuff from it that Id not known (which is a
lot..unfortunately)
Im now looking at my combination squares in a new light.

Well done Sir...Well done indeed!

"Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire.
Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us)
off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give
them self determination under "play nice" rules.

Think of it as having your older brother knock the **** out of you
for torturing the cat." Gunner

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Excellent stuff, learned much, thanks for sharing.
John.

Nice job.

You may not be aware of it, but the picture of the Hasher that you
showed is incomplete. The chopping blades worked inside a round tin
tub, which had a gear on its base and was rotated by a pawl with every
stroke. It's really a handsome machine - green paint, IIRC, with
pinstriping. People in Athol used to refer to the original factory as
"the Hasher".

One small point - the blue used to check flatness is not Dykem, but
Hi-Spot blue. It's a paste, not a fluid. Dykem may actually make one,
but when most machinists refer to Dykem they mean the lacquer-type
layout fluid.

I agree, great job with the presentation.

There is nothing like a good combination square... my father gave me one
when I was about 6 or 7, a (cast iron head) 12" Craftsman. To this day,
it's still square as can be, and considering it's had use several times
a week for almost 45 years now, still looks good. As far as I can
remember, it was the first tool I owned. (Believe it or not, I still
have the original little scribe in it! Still sharp too...)

I also have a crude hook rule I made from an old steel carpenters
square. Just wacked one of the legs way down... extremely handy at times
for general cobbling. They should sell them like that. Got the idea for
it here a while back, someone said they'd made one for welding use IIRC.

John,

Thanks for your input. Your comments are welcomed. I did not know the
'Hasher' was incomplete. I stand corrected with the Dykem although I did
know the difference. The problem came about in that in my past life with
Cincinnati Milacron the term Dykem was generally used for any thing blue.

Thanks,

JIM

Dykem is a trade name. They also make a paste. You can get the same
thing in oil paint from an art or hobby store. It's called Prussian
Blue. The oil paint will eventually set, so it should be wahed off
after use, just like Dykem. G
