Woodworker's tool chest: saws
Item
Item’s are ‘child’ level descriptions to ‘parent’ objects, (e.g. one page of a whole book).
-
These two hand saws were found in specially constructed slots within a tool chest belonging to woodworker Jesse Bryson Stalcup. The saw with the dark brown handle is stamped "H. Disston & Sons PHU ADA" and "JBS." The rivet pattern possibly indicates that this is a "Disston D-8" saw. JBS refers to Jesse Bryson Stalcup and was likely added after the saw was purchased to help identify ownership. Hand saws are used for ripping along the grain of wood and crosscutting wood. The saw with the lighter finished handle has a fern-leaf design and is stamped "H. Disston & Sons * Philda." and "JBS." Henry Disston was an immigrant from England who built a saw and tool factory on the north side of Philadelphia in the mid-1800s. His company remained in existence until it was bought in the 1950s. Stalcup was a skilled carpenter, millwright, and woodworker who worked in and around Waynesville, N.C., Macon County, N.C., and Hiawassee, Ga., circa 1880s-1930. The chest contains a variety of woodworking tools typically used by craftsmen in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
