Crucible Planing Stop
We have always loved blacksmith-made planing stops, which are embedded in the end of a block of wood that is about 3” x 3” x 12”. The block is friction-fit into a mortice in the benchtop and moves up and down with mallet taps.
In our experience, the planing stop is as important as the workbench’s face vice and has almost-endless uses.
The main problem with a blacksmith...

Before matches became widely available in the 1860s, long, coiled wood shavings known as spills were used to transfer a flame from one location to another, such as from a fireplace to a candle, lantern or stove.

Anyway, a few years later and the dynamic buying department of CHT sprung into action and finally started to stock...

After Lost Art Press tested many different combinations of lead (called the “core”) and diameters, this pencil became their shop favourite. It is robust because of its diameter and the fact that it is round....
Ashley Iles 1 1/2'' Shallow Roughing Out Gouge
37mm 1½" handled shallow pole roughing gouge by Ashley Iles.
These tools have carbon steel blades, not HSS that you would find in the turning tools we offer from the likes of Hamlet and Robert Sorby. Carbon steel is preferable on a pole lathe because it will give you a finer edge, but more critically it is easier to sharpen if you are away from the power grid. So this roughing gouge...
