A question for the VW collective. Years ago I went into a junk shop (remember those?) and bought a wooden chest full of old carpentry tools. It all largely became forgotten but I recently opened it up to have a look at everything. These two tools were in it but I don't know what they are for. The first one has a tapered hole down the middle and a blade running parallel. Maybe it is for cutting wooden pegs?

The lighter coloured piece has a small blade at the bottom of the slot and a wooden screw thread which tightens up into it.

Any ideas?

The first one looks like a rounding plane.

Could do with seeing a bit more of the second one.

Oh, uses; Rounding plane, chair legs, spindles.👍

Thanks for that. Here are some more shots of the second one. The blade seems to align with the wooden screw thread, which makes me wonder if it is for cutting wooden screw threads.

I reckon you're right on the second one. Possibly should have more parts with it. If memory (and a quick chat with a mate😁) serves me right, try Screw Box.

Thank you, Mr Ford. I'll delve deeper into the tool chest and see what else I can dig out.

An inquiry for the VW aggregate. A long time back I went into a garbage shop (recall those?) and purchased a wooden chest brimming with old carpentry devices. Everything to a great extent became neglected yet I as of late freed it up to view everything. These two apparatuses were in it yet I don't have the foggiest idea what they are really going after. The first has a tightened opening down the center and an edge running equal. Perhaps it is for cutting wooden stakes?
