I just got back from a barn find with some fun goodies. Some of the hammer shapes I am not too sure about.

Hewing hatchet and axe
Drawknives
Bucksaw
Stanley 60 spokeshave
Millers Falls eggbeater
Charles Parker bench vise
Richard Wilcox woodworking vise
Adze?

A good pile of rust. My hunting hasn't turned up a broad axe of yet.

Thanks everyone! And yes Jim, I was excited about that. They are usually over $125 at antique stores around here.

Freiler,

The froe appeals a lot, but that vise looks incredibly super. Ya did good!

Thanks Stew! It is a Richard Wilcox 10 inches across and quick release. Now I have to decide if it is worth swapping out my old Colombian. Tough Choices!
