    Ok hold on a minute , I've been trying to get someone to make me a custom hammer head like the one with the single claw in the back because I'm a possum hunter and then use staples to attach my traps to trees and I was thinking a single beak or claw would be easier for taking out the stave's.....now you tell me I'm not the only one who has had the idea wow mind blown . I was actually looking for a head so I could make a long handle for a walking stick slash branch hooking device and possum hunting tool but I can't find any old hammer heads at the second hand shops in my part of NZ ,the hammer head so have is a big one and bulbus I want a light head shaped like that , the big heads are to heavy to swing around when you put a long handle on them .I've actually been putting a few handles on old heads for the farm I live on but I haven't come across a head that I like yet ..... awesome video dude sorry for rambling you broke my brain 😝

    I'll eventually find a No 85, 87 and 212, but they're typically pretty harsh on the old pocket book. As of right now, I have a Stanley No 112, 12, 70, 81, 80 and 82 scrapers. Great video.

    I have a plane that I can’t find out anything about,can’t get any info on google ,it is a No 6 with REGION on it and a stamp No on the side (1079) it looks very much identical to the Stanley Bailey No6 only the name is different (REGION)in the same area’s Stanley has theirs, it’s in fair condition but needs some attention,it seem to be heavier than the Stanley, hope you can point me in the right direction,paid £40 for it which I thought was reasonable to say even the seller knew nothing about,it will make a fine addition to my tools once tidied up
