Thought some might appreciate my growing collection of miniature tools. Featured here are a few that were completed recently. Ralph |

Amazing work They all looked "normal" until your hand came in to shot Very functional as well John |

Some questions... Are those "bull horn" saw handles a scaled-down version of some real saw(s)? They look as if they would be extremely uncomfortable to use in full scale. Are you familiar with rivett608's work? He hangs out on Practical Machinist Here's an example of the type of stuff he does... http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/woodworking-woodworking-machinery-new-forum/my-miniature-tool-chest-140639/ Finally, how do you build anything with a bench that cluttered? |

Thanks for your observations. mklots. The saw handles are stylized versions of some pictures that I saw of real saws. In full scale I may have used a different artistic license, but in miniature they are quite comfortable enough. I just checked rivett608's work. WOW!!! INCREDIBLE. And finally, you may want to look again. My bench is cluttered with artistically placed instruments of my work which create scale references, and among them an observant viewer might note a number of other minature tools which I strategically poised in the background for aesthetic effect. At any rate, I may not recommend my work station, procedures, or any other idosyncrosies that are unique to me, but I find my environment quite comfortable, conducive and effective for the work I do.
