Thursday, October 9. 2008Woodshop Update October 8, 2008 Molding Knives I know this is a poor picture, but it looked fine in the one inch viewfinder on the camera! But the story - we recently received a substantial donation of tooling for our Fay molder and it will also work on the ex Illinois Traction molder/sticker we obtained 9/27.
