I could have actually took the ramp to a finer edge to make it pick up slightly better, but I didn't want to make the edge too fragile.<br />The broom is really cool. I got it at the Mount Vernon Craft Fair last year. It was made by Gary Robinson of Jack Mountain Crafters out of Bolar, Virginia. Hand made and only $20. A real bargain if you ask me. It's called a turkey wing broom.<br />If you think of it, let me know how you make out on your shop next year. I always enjoy following along with shop builds.<br /><br />Take care, <br /><br />JamieJamie Baconhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02758840022244112240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260748632761418307.post-8798343889278939122013-02-16T14:13:00.229-05:002013-02-16T14:13:00.229-05:00That's a great idea for the dust pan, I'd ...That's a great idea for the dust pan, I'd never have thought to use dimensional lumber like that, seemed it would be too thick, but for shavings, it seems to work just fine.<br /><br />I'd actually like to know where you got the little whisk broom, that thing is awesome - I've never seen its like, ad I want one!<br /><br />Great job on the shop, you've given me some good ideas for when I start mine this spring.dyfhidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07390397733402310188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260748632761418307.post-63924362860813689072012-10-05T19:22:19.500-04:002012-10-05T19:22:19.500-04:00osage makes good chisel handle so it should make g...osage makes good chisel handle so it should make good mallet tooAlan Husehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04394735082411924592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260748632761418307.post-31516618398843552482012-10-05T06:16:26.678-04:002012-10-05T06:16:26.678-04:00You are so creative:)

We're sharing a brain on the trash can; I've got my eyes open for a nice barrel.<br /><br />As for an osage orange mallet, I've never used the stuff but from what I understand, it's a pretty tough and dense wood. So I think it'd make a fine mallet.Jamie Baconhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02758840022244112240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260748632761418307.post-1388179326506193892012-10-04T14:49:23.577-04:002012-10-04T14:49:23.577-04:00That’s a nice looking dust pan.

Now all you have to do is replace your shiny, galvanized trash can with a nice stave barrel. :-) <br /><br />Dean<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
