Cast your vote for the next Lumberjocks tool swap (external link for casting vote).

You have the option of writing in an item if you do not see what you would like. Whatever gets the most votes (or write ins) will become the next swap.

Once the next tool swap project has been established, you will have the opportunity to participate.

Expected duration is 4 months, with a start date of 01 November 2014 and end date of 01 March 2015.

Voting ends on October 30th at 12:00 EST.

Only one vote per participant, please :)

The winning tool category will become a new forum with participation details.

I sure hope we dont have any voter fraud here on this tool swap forum! lol

Candy and Joe, glad to see you voted! I do hope that more and more LJers are inspired to participate. I know that I always enjoyed watching the various swaps, but never took the plunge until the saw swap. Its fun! The whole process is a good time for all skill levels.

This just in from our tool swap campaign manager:

"Early voter data shows that Measuring / Layout tools have an early lead with 26% of the vote with planes and Mallet/Hammers at 21% and 14% respectively. For write in candidates we are seeing 'Levels' make a strong early showing with 6% of the vote. Back to you Norm."

There you have it, early poll data. Go out and vote for your preferred tool swap item if you haven't already!

Just a friendly reminder, there is no need to commit to the tool swap yet, this forum is just to get people to vote on their desired tool build of choice for the next swap. We will create the tool swap forum once the votes are all in and then give up to 1 month to get all of those interested 'locked in'.

How about straight razors? I should have written that in….

Sounds like a good way to reduce membership on LJ.

"This just in, members of a strange online cult all slit their own throats across the world today in a ritual called Tool Swapping. More at 5."

I voted-I've never participated in one of these before, but it sounds like fun. I don't think I'd be interested in a "mallet" swap, but marking knives, planes and saws all sound fun. Marking gauges and perhaps squares too? Lotsa choices. Actually even chisels would be fun, but I'd bet most folks don't have their heat treating chops to a point where they can make a really great functional chisel.
