I forgot about those.
I always used a “scribed” (little compass made by General) and a coping saw for trimming.
Still done?

Yes. Scribing still done with little compass and pencil that is always need of sharpening....

Gup, I still have a Lion cutter. Use it for cutting plastic U shaped trim.
Knee is good. A noticeable difference in past week... Now focused on what I can get done today instead of waking up with what I can't do. So 5 1/2 months to get back to work/functioning again.

Mac has a couple of these hammers and he is a voice I totally respect. So maybe if I hit a scratch ticket I will add it to the tool wish list.

The Van Stall of hammers.

I saw them years ago and had no interest in a Guchi hammer like that. I have 2 Estwings. I did buy one of those big Red Deadblow hammers and it suits it's purpose.
I still use a canvas lumberyard apron, also a General scribe.

Glad to hear your knee is doing better Ross

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Still use my dividers on a regular basis for scribing....had these for a few decades now....that block plane is well broken in too. I cherish my old tools that have worn smooth. The little gents saw is new and only used for a specific task.
