Ed Kennell 38,022 #10 Posted April 17, 2019 Are the forks for positioning the cutter/punch on a round dowel or the corner of a square piece? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mows4three 826 #11 Posted April 17, 2019 I'd go with mortising chisels but that's too obvious. Hmmm.....It might be a set of first, second, third and fourth gear tuning forks for getting the synchromesh sine wave pattern just right on those green tractors. Cheers!

formariz 11,987 #17 Posted April 17, 2019 I knew it would be easy for some of you but I never tough it would be because it was seen on TV. I guess next time we will have to eliminate the TV factor. Although no one has named or described how it works a couple of you seem to have the general idea of it. They are Clamp Nail driving tools. These are designed specifically for miter joints. They drive a special spline (clamp nail) through a proper kerf cut into the mitered pieces which not only aligns faces but also draws pieces together. They will make a perfect miter without any glue or other fastener and joint will not pull apart. For this purpose totally superior to Lamelloes (biscuits), faster, and much cheaper to use. No specialized power tool needed.Not a very common thing today but extremely useful if you have it. Most who use the Clamp Nails use a modified pneumatic palm nailer. I assume that is what @squonk was referring to in his Norm comment. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
