Glen Drake makes some nice plane hammers that have a tip just the right size for chip breaker screws.

Strangely familiar... 1927 IIRC :wink:

FWIW, the smallest one from this set fits the small side set screws on the Veritas planes. The width needed slight reduction in flare to fit into the deep holes in the BUS, but otherwise it's proved to be the biz. One day I may even get round to making a posh handle for it - in Bubinga, natch. :lol:

Cheers, Alf

Hmmm . . .

There's a need in the market for proper socket chisels that sell for less than USD50 :wink:

How bout' chairmakers spindle cutters??? You could probably make dowels with 'em too....

Gosh - wouldn't it be neat if you could get those for about $16.50??? Or even under 10GBP??? If it were me...I'd want, say, 5 sizes..... 3/8 to 5/8 would be a good range.....
:wink: :wink:

Hmmm . . . . :-k not sure how to take all of that. It's either a tease or a bit of sarcasm. (wondering off to ponder)

Can't wait for that September catalog to come out.

I don't know how to tell you this Rob, but "chisels" and "chairmakers' spindle cutters" (whatever they may be - hollow augers or stail engines?) are not the same thing. It was probably the mention of sockets that threw you. #-o

Cheers, Alf

P.S. Dave, how much is he paying you to be straight man? :lol:

 

[MikeW]

Oh, probably just Rob's shameless hijaaking of the thread to promote that stuff they make and sell...

the side screws really need a more "dinky" driver

Do you think that we will see LV produce a screwdriver kit ala LN?

The one that I have in constant use is for the set screws:

This is just a turned Jarrah handle around a little brass jeweller's screwdriver. More comfortable to use than the tiny thing alone.
