Love swap meets 😊score on the Tonka! Yeah I had some generic set or it was Italian 🤷🏻♂️🤣
i remember using all of those tools at engineering college, because back in the day we didn't have fancy things and had to make everything by hand lol
love having a good old dig around a boot sale for just the randomest tools i can find, nice spoke shave and tennoning saw there though

@@BuildWithAE You to fella 👍
Tonka Toy’s “Real Tough Toys For Real Tough Boy’s, TONKA” as the ad always said.
Hi Dave TONKA TOYS have always had a soft spot in my heart have a awesome week all the best Tony 👍
Tony and Pete, you are so spot on. Buying good quality, well looked after, second hand tools, is definitely the way to go. Brand new chisels and planes are not generally usable from the packet, the steel is inferior poorly cast. When planes were made 50 plus years ago they were cast and then left for up to 12 months to stop movement (similar to when wood dries out and seasons). Only then we're the surfaces machined and ground flat. I bought a brand new Stanley block plane 10 years ago and it took me three days to get the bed flat on sandpaper glued to glass. Thanks for the great video, looks like I need to book a trip to the next event.👋😁
Hi Fred it’s an incredible place to go definitely worth a few trips in a year, I’am going to the first spring one because Pete always says it’s has even more stock have a awesome week all the best Tony 👍 PS loved learning about the old planes standing for 12 months never know that.
@@BuildWithAE Tony, the same applies to castings made in all sorts of industries. Cast iron engine blocks were deliberately left outside to heat and cool in the weather to relieve the stresses in the casting. I know your busy but a quick search for cast steel seasoning helped me see what makes good and bad tools. Rex Kruger on UA-cam did a great video two weeks ago, trying to tune up a Chinese plane. 10ish minutes in he talks about seasoning. Stay safe friend.
@@fredsmith6725 a massive thank you for sharing this Fred I love this kind of stuff much appreciated will definitely check it out 👍
Was the tonka truck metal or a later plastic one? I had 2 metal heavy duty ones as a kid.
When tools were made properly with solid steel
Absolutely Ben all the best Tony 👍 have a awesome week
