Due to my stupidity with the Julian calendar, I have mis-blogged.
I will be at Highland Hardware this Saturday and teaching a class there on Sunday. I will not be there on Friday, Feb. 1, as I stated before. My mistake.
At Highland, I’ll have the Dutch tool chest, the Milkman’s Workbench and a frightened look in my eye. I haven’t been out in public much since Woodworking in America. So be gentle.

P.S. Also, I noticed that Ray Schwanenberger has more vintage tools up for sale on his site. Check it out if you haven’t already.
Planning to be there on Saturday!
Is that a little packet of yeast in the back of your tool box?

That is a refrigerator magnet stuck to my card scraper.
Is that a backsmith made lock on the chest? Kinda cool looking.
It’s a vintage lock I picked up off eBay for $10.
Looking forward to seeing how the Milkman’s Workbench works.
You know, if you made that milkman’s workbench just a little shorter……….
I see you’ve packed your nail puller. That should guarantee you don’t need it.
Of course, you do know that the Julian calendar was superseded by the Gregorian calendar, at least in mainstream society, before 1600. I guess I will have to catch you some other time to see that new tool chest.
Hey, stop by the house and see the worlds largest mallet! It misses you.
This is the only context in which a man can say “Hey, baby, nice chest!” and not get slapped.
Looks good the second time around!
