Well it looks nice, but that handle is about as bad as it gets for a working axe/hammer  :P
Pretty handle = weak handle, and I wouldn't want a moulded grip like that for any more than about 5 swings

Here’s a link to his Fleabay store, he has some nice looking work


http://www.ebay.com/sch/bnbsparents/m.html?item=150947966747&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562

But I’m not sure all his work is for the serious wood worker  :rofl: (I might send this one to Al as a user   >:D  )


http://www.ebay.com/itm/vintage-double-headed-claw-hammer-custom-walnut-handle-old-tool-abstract-/150952303062?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item23257559d6

I wonder how I can make those links look tidy  :think:

 :D My axe use days are seriously diminished, and I'm looking at getting the "dingy" ready for selling. Times up - had enough!

As for tidying the links: Click the insert hyperlink button which displays ...

Code: [Select]
[url][/url]
Then between the ] and the [ type what you want to see ... for example "HERE" ...

Code: [Select]
[url]HERE[/url]
Then after the first "url" put an "=" like this

Code: [Select]
[url=]HERE[/url]
Then paste the link after the "=" ...

Code: [Select]
[url=http://www.ebay.com/sch/bnbsparents/m.html?item=150947966747&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562]HERE[/url]
and then it displays like this ...

Is that hatchet for framing or roofing?  It seems like an odd mix of tools. :think:

Al's just making it look complicated :twak:


Simpler way: Click Reply (goes to full mode), Write "HERE", select it, click and paste your link in the pop-up window. :D OK and you're done. ;)
