Warrington Pattern Hammer
Words from Christopher Schwarz......
''Small cross-peen hammers are incredibly useful in furniture making. We've used them in our work for more than 20 years.
Americans don’t have much of a history with this form of hammer. It’s a British thing, just like the lump hammer we make. We don’t know why that is the case because Warringtons are quite useful.
This small...

Lee Valley Replica Spill Plane
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.

You can also disassemble the joint if you want to work on the fit some...
