As a former industrial arts major and someone who worked in the VA system as a vocational/teacher/therapist i can certainly relate to your channel. I was fortunate to work with veterans in an industrial arts type of department. I was in charge of the woodworking shop /clinic where we made a variety of small and large projects. The best part of the experience was hearing the experiences and life stories of these veterans and getting to know them on a personal basis. I also have the TAS (tool accumulation syndrome) and need to reduce my inventory. Your ability to put out so much work on your channel is very impressive for an 80 yo. My high school IA department was a great experience for me and i considered it a privilege to be able to be in the "shops" a d avail myself of all of the opportunity to use all of the tools and machinery. I also taught in the public schools and local vocational schools and i understand the challenges of dealing with the immature energy of students as well as those students whose behavior required too many school resouces.

Mr. Pete: Auction stuff: The conical brass thing with a fold-out blade in a slot on the side is a cork borer sharpener. I think I've seen a tiny Wilton vise about 2-3 inches long at a flea market marked about $85 ten or fifteen years ago.

If you mean the tool shown at 4:13 I think it is for making the tapered hole in a Windsor chair seat. The legs are attached to the seat base with tapered tenons and these sort of tools are used to adjust the tapered mortise (hole) in the base.

That little dumore is amazing. I had one of that vintage and the motor needed rewinding though.... It was a shame to see it go up in smoke. Yours sounds "sick" 😷
@ellieprice363Ай бұрын
Did someone change the meaning of “sick”? To me it means “ feeling awful, headache, throwing up, sick as a dog, flue, bad cold, ‘bout to die, etc. The Dumore was a lucky find for Mr Pete but it’s not “sick”.
@douglasbollinger8678Ай бұрын
@@ellieprice363 The bearings must be dry and filthy as you can hear the motor slowly picking up speed as they warm-up (it's running slow). That's the sick sound and might overheat the windings if not addressed. Also there's something wrong with the chuck/shaft as it's moving quite a bit as he applies drilling pressure. Yes, I've had a Dumore for years but mine is only around fifty years old.
@ellieprice3396Ай бұрын
@@douglasbollinger8678 Thanks for sharing the correct meaning of "sick" as applied to the Dumore. I've seen a few strange uses of the word that makes no sense to me. Such as, "That 427 Cobra is sick!" My apologies for misunderstanding the comment.

More woodworking tools. at 20:13 you have a tenon cutter for putting a round tenon of various sizes on the end of a piece of wood, frequently used in chair making. And right after it at 20:15 is a tenon pointer, sort of a giant pencil sharpener sort of tool. Makes putting the tenon in the mortise easier. At 20:20 is a tool for sharpening woodworking handsaws, lowers the teeth to the same height.

6:40 is for checking alignment in welding. Can be used for hi/lo on sheets, pipe alignmnent, and so on. It can do weld side, an reach through a root gap to check root side for open-root welds. I use one every day at job two. 11:25 I am weak for calipers and dividers, especially with fine adjust and releases to clear obstructions. you stole the baby bullet. Like I stole my house (less than 1/3 tax value) I love the DuMore. Mine was free, and not worth it due to damage. More than it was worth for the repair parts, but quite useful. 25:25 telegraph key frame missing the key lever. The switch is so when used on a long multikey line, the key can e shorted to allow another key to use the line. Open the switch when you are sending.

I used the crank meat grinder to make venison sausage. We used the corn stripping tool when canning corn. The small pin vises and hemostats were probably use by a model maker or model train person. Same with the tiny saws and knife. The transformer looks like the early type for powering model train layouts but could have been used with the morse keys. The crimper was used on round sheetmetal ducting. A lot of those dividers would have been used in drafting. The calipers would have been used for transferring and taking measurements at metal and wood turning lathes before the advent of modern dial and digital calipers. I think I have used most of these tools except the oddball ones. I also had a carbide head lamp for exploring caves and mines when I was young.

Lots of old but still useful items in there...Nice Oxy/Acet gas welding cart and tanks. Lots of hammers too ! Singer sewing machine was very cool and the homemade sander in the same room. Did see those bench vise's were in very good condition, only needed some evapo-rust treatment. It's really sad to have to be part of those auctions. the only advantage of them are to the seller(s) in that items tend to get moved/sold quickly however, for those who are in the know about the items, they have to bid more than most items are worth because oof other folks in there bidding on items they don't know about and have the money to burn for the fun of it. In the end, after the commissions are paid etc. most stuff sells for more than their value. Someone has to pay the auctioneers ! That baby Wilton has much value...I've seen them restored and priced for big money.

Somebody was a woodworker at that place. The tool at 6:20 is a bevel gauge, one of the better type with the hinge lock at the back where it never gets in the way. The cheaper ones have a lever lock at the hinge and depending on the project, those can get in your way. Looks like the locking mechanism is not all there though, pity. The single trammel point also points to woodworking.

Seeing that keen kutter sausage machine caught my eye. I used to travel to Wichita KS frequently and I would always stay at the Old Town hotel. It is a very nice restored building that was originally a keen kutter factory or maybe THE keen kutter factory. There were display cases of original keen kutter products in the lobby and throughout the hotel there were pictures of various 19th and very early 20th century scenes of life in the midwest. What would those magnetos be from? Tractors? Early automobiles? I’m sure some collector or restorer will jump on them. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.
