Hi, Jacob, your mention of cats cradle n string bring back fond memories of my childhood days:love:. Did you ever make telephone's out of empty tin cans and string?

Hi, Richie, can you see the trouble your post has caused?:love::love::love::ROFLMAO::LOL:

And if you're replacing sash cords you're gonna need a Mouse and a piece of string.:love:

It's a sash scribing gouge for working the glazing bar joints...

Hi, Danny, you could do worse than read this article by Jane Rees. http://www.hackneytools.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Specialist%20Tools%20for%20Sash%20Window%20Making%20-%20web%20version.pdf

In my opinion, they are used for both.

And one of these is handy if you're into making Georgian windows.

You might say that Jacob's comment has caused pics of sash pocket chisels to come flying out of the woodwork. Hahaha!

Thanks for making me feel hungry, Jacob... Sigh!

As always, the choice of the right stuff is important... But after reading under your name and seeing, ''Pint of bass, porkpie, and packet of crisps please'' I have a question for you - What about a pickled egg with those crisps? Chuckle!

Yes, Jacob, but many years ago - they're the right tool for the job. just trying to find a pic for you to see how thin they are.

I think you were right the first time, Danny. I've often been called a nutter - but never an aficionado.

Did someone mention sash pocket chisels? Grin!

But having said that, these 22 inch Moulson Bros could easily become my new favourites. Told you I was fickle... Grin!

But Thomas Ibbotson chisels could easily become my new favourites.

But when I pick up this James Howarth 16 inch by 1 1/4 inch chisel it becomes my favourite... I'm a sucker for ebony handles.

I'm a bit fickle... When I pick it up this 18 inch by 2 inch Patternmakers paring chisel by Ward & Payne is my favourite... I'm a sucker for boxwood handles.
