I import specialized tools to sell from England,at the same time I buy carving chisels for my own use.What I look for are the old Sheffield tools,Addis,Hill(better),Herring Bros etc.Have wound up with a mish mash of about 40 redundent items.And,more will be coming.How do you sell them,e-bay drives the price up,I don't have time to go to shows and take a commercial table,and when I get my web site up I don't want to be doing,Addis #22,bent into a fish hook,crack in handle,is it worth $10,pp?,or Early Marples #1x1in,large hand handle,ex cond,$20pp.So,any suggestions,if not I will fold and sell them to an e-bay dealer thank for your time nad,,[email protected]

Reply to Miniature Birdhouse Ornamentsby RolfI also enjoy making these. I have also used the profiles to turn some on the lathe. I mostly use a 220 Mac mop I have a 180 for the harder woods and then finish with the 220. I do all sanding before assembly.03-22-2023, 07:08 AM

What grit do you use on the mac mop? Do you change grits for the final sanding? Do you mop sand with the bird attached?
Inquiring minds want to know.
