Tool Maintenance Sunday.


Fulton 3/4 hand axe. De-rusted, pre-oiling.

It's Tool Maintenance Sunday here at the farm. Been learning more about the varying quality of antique/vintage tools, and realized I had a few gems in the collection that were not being treated as they should be (my "knocking around" adze is in fact an old Warwood, and so I took it out of the snowbank and brought it inside for a full restorative treatment).

After several hours on the angle grinder, I got the majority of my chopping implements looking, if not new, as good as they ever will. Also, my hands feel all vibrate-y...
