Interesting video. Maybe he used that sawn off back saw as a scraper of his foundation wood in preparation for gluing veneer/repairing large areas of veneer.
It is funny that people don't think a brace and bit works. I have compared 1 inch brace and bit with a corded drill through pressure treated wood to do some timber framing. The brace and bit were far superior. The power heated the bit and it would jam. The brace and bit was work, but the holes were much better for pegs. And they were about as fast as each other.
It’s fun trying to figure out the man that owned the chest. Thanks for showing it.
Sure thing, lots of fun to go exploring 👍🗜
Great finds, Bob!
You definitely come across some interesting things. Keep up the good work,really enjoy your videos.
Thanks for watching !👍👍
Very interesting thanks for sharing your videos and best wishes from an old vintage carpenter in old England 🇬🇧
Appreciate that !👍👍🗜

Perhaps, maybe to cut 8 x 11 sheets of sandpaper.
Interesting selection. Some appear to to be suitable for boat building.
The cut backsaw looks like it might be intended as a card scraper.
Could be, I’ll thinking maybe a cutter for sandpaper sheets?
Very cool. That is one huge screw driver! LOL
I’ll say! Now that’s a screwdriver!!!
Very nice vintage tools.👍
Awesome tools. Jersey strong.
Thank you! 👍🗜🛠
great box thanks

Thanks for the comment. What’s your thought on the 3/4” twist drill with the brace?
@@BobAmarant I have a series of brace bits down to 1/4. I do medieval woodworking demonstrations with all hand tools.
Boat builders like to use slotted screws and some prefer the Yankee drill to a battery drill. It's supposed to give you a better feel for the wood.
Thanks , you might be onto something here as he had 8 regular screwdrivers and one a slotted screw but on the Yankee driver.
what a big divider and screw driver he have , I like it 😊.
I really don't any info about the last tool , interesting 🤔
Thanks for watching!👍👍
The brass peice is brass kick plate for the bottom of a door pretty sure
Yep, for sure. copper color, most likely brass. Thanks for watching.
3/4 bit had a Morris taper on it at one time ground to fit a hand brace. The guy was a house carpenter I think not a furniture maker imho
@@jolo7965 Yep, I agree
What size can of paint does that screwdriver open? Cool video.
Jumbo!👍👍🤣🤣
Looks like somebody stuffed all there tools in there . I would figure that whoever collected that stuff hardley used any of it.
I'm lucky I found them in such shape. Thanks for tuning in.
@@BobAmarant indeed
It’s hard to hear you!
Hi, thanks for the feedback. Sounds ok to me, try your volume control
Why do you assume it was a "he", my daughter has most of those tools for home diy.
Interesting👍
