Topic tags/keywords: grease pot exotic frog humor I was surprised to see this little fellow sitting amongst some shavings tonight…
I sneaked up on him and he seemed quite friendly…
then he opened up to me… :)
I used all hand tools to assemble and construct the frog out of scrap material, except for the jointer, thickness planer, bandsaw, sander and drillpress. Had wanted to make a little grease pot ever since I saw them posted here, and finally got to it…mine is filled with wax, however. -- Randy "You are judged as much by the questions you ask as the answers you give..." |

They got frogs in Canada? I like it, and the selection of hand tools used in the making ( you DID use your hands, didn’t you?). Good job. Steve PS nice plane behind Froggy -- Steve in KY. 44 years so far with my lovely bride. Think I'll keep her. |

Thank you, we enjoy our Canadian Frogs. It didn’t start out as a frog, but after I cut the lid off, I had to make a decision about plugging the hole for the screw, and after placing an oversized plug on the top, put another one across from it which made it look like eyes, and it just took on a personality of its own, and I had to add some legs. And yes, I did use a few hand tools. Not the Spiers plane however. -- Randy "You are judged as much by the questions you ask as the answers you give..." |

live4ever, I like the name. However, those frogs are very rare. Make sure you keep it warm, dry, and well lubricated. -- Regret- the feeling you get just after you do something really stupid. |
