Bringing up a old subject from 2012
« on: August 05, 2016, 10:09:47 PM »
Way back on about Aug. 1 2012 I posted a video of a tool I had bought at a yard sale.  I had no idea what it was, I am a sucker for anything mechanical.  well this week on Aug 2 2016 I found out what the heck it is.    We was visiting the Columbia Maritime Museum in Astoria, Or. and while wandering around I noticed this thing that looked very like something I had seen before.  It was just like the one I have.  It was used to wind the cord onto a fishing net making needle. Now I have to make a needle and see if I can make it work.

I would rather have tools I never use, than to need a tool I don't have.

I took a bunch of photos of what the wood needles or shuttles look like and as soon as I manage to make one, I will see if my winder works and will post a video of it.
