It followed me home (Part 2)

A "square head ice axe"?

from Gifford-Wood catalog

Looks like Underhill made pickless ice axes, too. I'm betting that's what it is.

Gifford's square-edge ice axe sure looks a lot like a mortising bit. Similar handle, too. Imagine it without the pick.

That’s what I noticed first also. That handle looks similar to some others you got a while back! I’d that a Dayton above the pickaroon shaped head?
 
Today's finds.


A ton of great stuff there, JB. I want one of those railcar movers but I have no idea why. Can we get a closer look at the draw plane on the right. That's what it is, right? Looks a little different than mine.

The big pulley/sheave might be from an old hay trolley. We still have a fair number of old barns around that still have their intact hay trolleys.
