formariz 11,907 #353 Posted May 10, 2019 Now I see that the little notch on edge is intentional. Thought it was damage. One learns a lot with this silly little game. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 36,157 #356 Posted May 10, 2019 Red Lion, Pa. has been referred to as the cigar capital of the USA with several large production factories and over a hundred small operations in garages and basements. The House of Windsor Company in Windsor, Pa. is one of the lager factories. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 36,157 #357 Posted May 10, 2019 BTW, Mrs. K worked as a cedar wrapper in one of the factories for a short time in the mid 60s. I smoked all the seconds that didn't pass inspection. This little cigar box tool was used by and given to me by Mrs Ks Grandmother and is priceless as are the carpenters tools from her Grandfather. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
formariz 11,907 #358 Posted May 10, 2019 (edited) It is just great to see these things saved and cherished.After all they are our heritage and tell the story of our ancestors. I too hold all that was passed on to me very dear, and used every opportunity to show and enlighten my children as to what they are and what they mean to me. Many of them I already passed them on to them, so now the grandchildren can learn and cherish them. Proudly in my son's home are now displayed tools made by my great grandfather, grandfather, father, and me. Thank you and also Mrs. K for sharing them with us. Also thank you to all the others that participated with their finds, a lot of learning has happened since this post started.

formariz 11,907 #359 Posted May 10, 2019 Ok, no torture devices here, just a plain pleasant woodworking tool(what else would I have?). My version of tool. What is it and specifically what does it do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LengerichKA88 1,881 #360 Posted May 10, 2019 Same idea as the wheels, but for a rocking horse? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LengerichKA88 1,881 #361 Posted May 10, 2019 Looks like it’s used to cut along curved wood, possibly ship/boat building, mill-working, or furniture building? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
