ultimate tools
Hello,
For the past two weekends I have been using a new power tool to carve stone.
The tool is a pneumatic chisel made by Trow and Holden. To briefly describe
it ....
cylindrical in shape,
line out of the back( to the compressor) with on/off valve,
one moving piston(inside cylinder),
chisel in front.
This tool moves stone fast!!
When roughing out the forms, this and my 4.5" angle grinder(with diamond
wheel from Harbor Freight :$6.99) are the first out of my tool bag.
THE PROBLEM:
This air chisel belongs to a buddy of mine and we are moving away from each
other to go back to school for stone carving.
I NEED find one of these air chisels before I start school! If push comes
to shove, I will buy from T and H, but I was hoping to find one
cheaper(maybe used)
If you get a chance to use one of these tools , it will be a pleasant
surprise. If you have already used one, you know what I am talking about.
I am also looking for hand chisels.
Thank you,
Matthew B. Myers
