Antique Staking Tool


Recommended Posts

Found this nice little staking tool at a "buy out".  Needed a good sprucing up but after some "spit and polish" turned out nice.  Received a some amount of abuse in the form of well...I don't know how to put it...it seems one of its owners got carried away with a hammer and ruined a few stakes.  Replaced of them, polished up the rest and refinished the wood holder.  I believe this was a National.  As you can see it's missing the pedestal.  My instructor tells me watchmakers often removed it as it was awkward to work with.  When I have the time and resources I'll turn a new one.
