279- Leather Tool Tote
Nov 01, 2019
Thigpen made this tote out of vegetable-tanned leather, with 1/8-in. Masonite panels sandwiched inside it for structure. “I wanted something classy to store and haul my tools in,” he said. The finished tote has more than 1,500 stitches, all done by hand.

These gauges can be easily and precisely adjusted with one hand, which allows you to set the tool while holding a ruler or workpiece in the other. The quality is exceptional, and all have sharp cutters that offer great visibility.
Veritas Wheel Marking Gauge
A wheel-type gauge is the easiest to use, and this wonderful Veritas model is a steal at $38.
Suizan Japanese Pull Saw
A versatile saw that can be used for anything from kumiko to dovetails. Mike Pekovich recommends them as a woodworker's first handsaw.
