    I am selling all of my BCTW tools as I am downsizing.  All of the tools have been stored in an air-conditioned home while I have owned them.  Some may have tarnish on the brass, which is easily removed.  However, I will leave tarnish removal to the buyer as some prefer the natural look of tarnish and some prefer to remove it with polish.

    Drivel Starved Nation;
    I spent the monthof February working on some new concepts and I finally finished the 2015 Fab 50tool. Why the name “Fab 50″? Because each year we pick a design and fabricate50 units and move on to something else the following year. This year’s versionis something else…
    One of ourmanufacturing partners has been nudging me towards using copper in
    something
    , so this dual angle blockplane (it is both a low angle and regular block plane) has 4 CNC milled, solidcopper components. The sole is stainless steel and the sides are 360 brasswhich are double dovetailed to the sole. All of the copper will be lacquered soit will keep its sexy look. The sole is 1.8″/46 mm wide and 6.25″/159 mm long.It is a variation on the the CT-17 theme from 2012. You can see how the mechanismworks by clicking on the video tab at the bottom of this
