Hi Jim,
It's a Record 044.
It came with only 1 cutter, but it was a 1/4" which is perfect for drawer bottoms I make. I leave it set up for this sole purpose.
I have a Record 050 with a full...
That's exactly how I do it.
I just nail the wider board to my well patinated bench.
I then use a hollow to make the top profile.

If your bolts are (actually) 8mm you could use a 5/16" bit (7.93mm).
This should be a snug fit.
Easy to test without buying extra bits.
Have a look at Colen Clenton's squares.
Have to put my hand up for the Aussie :) (no affiliation)

Came here to say this.
I work with a lot of 19th century furniture and I see a lot of plaster filler in smaller voids.
It's generally mixed with red/brown brick dust to colour it.
It doesn't seem...
Any love for the old school dedicated glue pots?
I use a Kambrook hotplate.
Shown is my 'daily driver' on the hotplate.
There's also a small cast and a larger aluminium pot as backups.

Hi Luke.
'Round head nail punch' will get you there
Hope this is not against the rules, but a quick Ebay search may help you.
There's heaps of vintage thumb oil cans available in the States.
These were on just the first page.

It's a double iron nosing plane.
I've handled a couple of them but they aren't very common.
Here's one that Jim Bode has for sale.

Awesome work Joe and John.
I notice it's on Amazon Australia.
I'm putting this on my Christmas wish list :D

Hi Tony,
Quick question.
I have a heap of old close-grained Doug fir which I'm planning on using for building the entirety of a new workbench.
Has the top been a problem?
Should I be looking...
The sharpest tool in my shed must be my skew block plane when I forget that the side plate is removed and I pick it up like a normal block plane.
The amount of blood produced proves it :(
I'm guessing mine is from the 40's or 50's.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining, the older English planes have good bones and work well.
I do like rosewood handles and knobs though. Mine is...
Should clean up to be a nice plane.
My number 6 is an English version. We don't seem to get a whole heap of the US versions over here.
Raised ring under the front knob.
One patent date.
Points to a Type 14

This is where a Japanese saw like a ryoba can excel.
C'mon Derek that's the first thing I'd do!
As a side note, the future restorer in 150 odd years will thank you when the drawer bottom pulls out of the groove in the drawer front due to shrinkage....
@Ken and John
I went a little nuts when I made my change table.
All hand cut M&T joinery, a bit of carving and amazing timber polished with shellac.

That would be ideal ..... when I retire :D
They would be fit for (my) purpose if they were tight.
The tool handles won't be turned anytime too soon.
I have two colonial aussie red cedar chest...
Thanks all for the ideas.
This is exactly how I want to use them. I do have a set of the screw type calipers that I use for fitting the tenon in to the ferrule. I just don't have multiple sets...
I picked up some old calipers that I want to use to turn a set of tool handles.

Does anyone have any tips to tighten them up?

Looks like it was made by the Riverside Tool Company in New York (registered in 1899).
Here's an example logo found on some dividers.
