Title: Hand Tools
Post by: John Harmon on January 13, 2014, 12:21:12 PM

Hi Everyone,

     I know there are people on here who appreciate the satisfaction of producing parts with good old fashioned hand tools. I cannot actually think of six people I know who respect the skill involved in producing a nearly perfect pair of squares with a square, hacksaw, and two grades of hand files.
