Meeker's www.patented-antiques.com / Antique & Vintage Saws

The old adage about they do not make them like they used to holds especially true for antique

& vintage hand saws, edge tools, and antique drills and augers. The art of saw making and metallurgy were at the height of their quality back in the mid to late 1800's and into the early 1900's. These vintage tools make for great collectible and / or useable vintage tools.

Saw makers like Henry Disston and Atkins were putting forth a product that can not be equaled today. Today you can expect plastic, and Taiwan or China labels unless paying a premium for custom tools coming from small cottage businesses or makers. These vintage saws and edge tools are a testament to the quality and sense of pride that the phrase "Made in America" use to carry and can be a bargain to boot.

And they work! and are still here 100 or so years later.

Braces & Breast Drills

*** Click Heading to see Items ***

Drilling holes has been a task since the dawn of time. Braces and drills have evolved over time and each have many different styles and designs to choose from. There is a book on American Patented Braces by Ron Pearson and finding some of the harder ones can be a challenge. They make for a great display once one begins to appreciate the differences and thought that went into the different designs. Others make for great users.

Beam Drills / Misc Hand Drills & Screwdrivers

*** Click Heading to see Items ***

I have seen a few collections of Beam boring machines and they can be very impressive. It seems there are a few common versions around that were mass produced, and then a very few models that were patented and made in very limited supply. Some with just a few known. The Millers Falls model is the most popular with today's timber framers and users, although outfits like James Swan and a few others made a nice usable product.
