Beautiful spine detail! Very nice job!!  JR

Nothing super impressive but I am still proud of my first mod 
A Yeoman with saw: the Yeosaw!

[nuphoria]

Woo hoo

It's great making your first one no matter what it is.... big sense of achievement I reckon

Good job - nice tool set as well. What was your experience of carrying out the work?

[Zag]

Thank you! 

The hardest bit has been to make the new rivets. I bent a few before finding the right amount of force with each hammer strike. The pin has to "mushroom" but not bend.
The rest is pretty straight forward.

I didn't realize until now that this model has been invented by Scibeer a while back. Real name is Yoman

[magentus]

Did you use a regular hammer or a ball and peen?

I'd stick with the name you invented for it - it's cool and yours.

The more I look at the tool set the more impressed I am.

[AimlessWanderer]

Nice work mate. I've taken a few apart, but still not got round to putting one together yet 

Good on yer feller

Thanks mate.
I just wish to have an awl instead of the hook. But if i remember correctly the awl is slightly too thin for that spot 
otherwise it is indeed my favourite tool set.

Nice job Zag!

I always meant to try an awl in that hook spot too.  I think a custom size tiny washer would solve that problem of it being thinner.  It's still on my todo list to try.

Very nice SAK indeed Zag, well done.

Well done on losing your modding virginity Bernard   Everyone finds it tricky first time, it gets better

and Al ....  sort it out chap.  Anyone would think you'd been busy moving house or something

[AimlessWanderer]

  I'm getting better

I've got nearly all the SAK's I want to break and the ones I've already broken in one place ... well almost. I'm also about 8 miles nearer my Dremel than I was before, and the hammers and drills are only a few miles away from that. The rest of my tools haven't moved yet though. I think the work bench is currently 2 miles from my drill and 10 miles from the stand that takes the drill and sits on the bench. I don't have anywhere to site the bench to work on where I am, but that's a work in progress. I do have an electrical extension lead though

See, much better. Ain't progress wonderful

     We used to dreeeam of having a workbench 



 

[AimlessWanderer]

Derivative of the Yorkshiremen sketch mate? 

Wurkbench? Vice? 'Ammer? We had a slug fur a wurk bench, 'ad tu grip job wi' teeth an' peen rivets wi' us tongue 

Bloody Southerners, arlus geein us Northerners grief 


 

[nuphoria]

Sounds like a small galaxy forming....

[AimlessWanderer]

Nah, just a bit of phlegm 

[Neil]

LoL

Well quit you're jibber jabber and be getting on with it

[Sparky415]

Aye   



 

That's another thread buggered 

[Zag]

I think we all agreed that the Yeosaw was missing an awl!
So without further due, here is the YEOSAWL




Took a bit of grinding to fit the awl at the back of the woodsaw. The liner had to be slightly reprofiled to access the nail nick easily.

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

Very cool

[AimlessWanderer]

Me likey 

[nuphoria]

Ooh, nice.... I've got to get the scissor layer in to my Special Mechanic, with the hook/file on the back.

I wish my fecking hands would play nice

[Neil]

Yeosawl    That's awlful

I remember seeing a lot of pics of this particular specimem here on the forum, not sure about a vid of it. I found accidentaly while searching some birch bark container, I wonder if 91mm Ti liners can have cuted out a liner lock.



Forgive me if this vid was already posted.
