JED Basic Collections

JEDCollects.com

Welcome to my introductory website created on Bluehost WordPress. This is my first post.

This is an introduction to my collection website. I hope you have an interest in either Bridge City Tool Works or D. R. Barton chisels. My goal is to share high-quality images of various tools, presented and organized in a thoughtful, quality format. I also plan to showcase my woodworking projects and my collection of Pabst memorabilia — but I’m getting ahead of myself.

You may be asking yourself: What’s so important about these collections that I would create a website for them? Well, you would need to share an interest in these tools to truly appreciate it. I believe there aren’t many resources available that thoroughly cover the different makers of these tools. One common reference to D. R. Barton chisels is simply “A Glimpse of Early Edge Tools in Rochester NY”. I think you would agree that the images in the book I read did little to satisfy my curiosity about the variety of logos used over a hundred years ago.
