Like many here I mark most of my woodworking projects using a brass branding iron that says HAND CRAFTED BY...

Sometimes that brand is too large to look right on a piece so I was wondering if...

Problem solved!!! I figured the tool was a goner due to unavailable parts and I had just wasted $39 in replacement parts! So today I took it back apart and on closer examination I saw that the brush...
