New Tools

[Fire88]

I needed a new stitching pony and a box sewing jig and a 45 guide to cut my miters, so I used some wood I had hanging around my brothers shop.

Look great! It is always satisfying when you make functional tools for yourself that suit your needs perfectly

Nice woodwork!  Looks like you are using a turnbuckle to tighten the jaws on the pony.  Is that a bolt in the middle so you have something to hold onto to tighten the pony?

Agreed, having a shop I can use and the knowledge to make anything helps.

You are correct it is a turnbuckle for adjusting the tension and that is a bolt through it with two nuts to turn the turnbuckle. I got tired of my thead getting caught so when this route this time. 

The knob allows me to disassemble the two pieces for transport and allows me to turn the clams anyway I'd like to.

Great looking tools.  Nice choice of woods too.  Is that some curl I see in that oak?

That is curl you see, it is quarter sawn curly white oak that I had left over from a cabinet I made last year.

I've gotta know. What is a box sewing jig? It's the only thing I cant find on you tube! PS Nice looking work.
