Very innovative way to square cut those dowels using that 2X4 scrap. Nice! I'm sure you are aware that, not only does jeweling look great; it has functionality as well. Particularly in firearms. It helps hold the lubrication in a specific area. I like the Scotchbrite way better, as well. Good show.
YAAY on the Rikon! I suffer with sinusitis 24/7/365 and have a Honeywell HEPA and an old Lighting Air ozone generator in the bedroom. I run the HEPA every night and the ozone when things are rougher and the engine turned is BEAUTIFUL! And The Estwing can make a rasp in a pinch. Thanks, John CS! Better pack the Rikon up for the move!
Those farrier rasps are so handy in the shop. I’ve seen guys make some very cool looking knives out of those rasps as well. They’re so meaty and course. I should probably invest in one of those air filtration units. I’m sure my lungs are filling up fast with dirt and dust and rust as well. Great jeweling demo. The scotch brite has always been my favorite. You could add some cutting compound and use the scotch brite as well on the harder tool steels. Might show up a wee bit better.
“I was on my way out......and then!” LOL! Boy, how many times in my life have I come home and said that to my wife?!?!?!? Usually preceded with or followed by.....”I swear, honey.” Great stuff, John. Thanks for the jeweling lesson.
I’ve been watching Engel’s Coach Shop for quite a while. It’s unfortunate that he doesn’t have an apprentice in the shop to learn the trade. I call him a genius, I wished I lived close to him so I could volunteer my time just to learn from him. Take care and thanks for your channel.
Thanks Scout. I the same model Rikon air filtration unit and love it! The timer is sometimes a gentle reminder of how long I’ve been in the shop and how time flies. 🤣
In the shop years ago we used to put jeweling on all the tools and fixtures we made for oil retention to prevent surface rusting while stored on the shelf. I don't really know if it worked all that well, but it was quick to do and made the work look professional. I still do jeweling on tools I make in the home shop. That way five years later I know that it must have been made for something. Besides that you need to stamp your work with a description and date made so you'll have a clue as to what its for. Cheers from NC/USA
@@ScoutCrafter As you showed in your video, it really does look good on polished or surface ground surfaces. I still have a box of Craytex abrasives that I used. The one inch diameter Craytex makes covering a large surface a matter of just a minute to do. Cheers from NC/USA
Hey Scout, I love the way you take something so simple like jeweling and explain it in a way that is interesting even to those of us that know how to do it. You’re an excellent teacher. When you were opening the $5 stones my wife said they would be really handy................for sanding her feet.😂😂😂 cheers Stuart 🇦🇺
That Rikon air filter is a nice unit, I especially like the timer feature. The downside to these is the pre-filter is an odd size so they gouge you for replacements. I’ve seen some guys make their own pre-filter using 1x2 wood frame, hardware cloth and bulk filter fabric. Cheers.
Can't Wait For Your Bucksaw Build ! Love The Air Filtration System ! Really Enjoyed Your Tip with the block of wood for getting smooth ends on a dowl ! I'm gonna have some fun with this 1, ScoutCrafter, Thanks ! ATB T God Bless
Thanks again for the jeweling lesson. I did almost the same thing using Emory paper dots cut out with a round gasket punch. Those factory made rubber grit sticks are too expensive for a old man like me on social security. Always enjoy your videos and humor.
THANK YOU...for sharing. Over here in Ohio we use a pencil with an eraser, just chuck it up in a drill press and go to town. Great show and very much enjoyed.
I’m surprised you did not build the air cleaner. I know it makes a nice addition to anybody’s shop. I bought the sanding blocks for handsaws. They are supreme quality. I love the poor mans flea market jeweling . I will have to make some.you never seem to amaze me with your projects and the quality of them. You had great teachers. Thank You
The good 'ol fix to avoid-lifelong-grief-I-wish-Ihad-bought-that show exit! To this day I STILL kick myself - after 20 years - for NOT picking up special insulaotrs that caught my eye at insulator shows! I now weigh the impulse not to spend the money to the years of kicking-myself-to-come if I don't buy the item. Spending has saved me a years of grief over temporal grief. Great acquisitions John. Good on you for getting the filtration system! Excellent jeweling review also. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You picked up a lot of nice things at the show. The air filtration system looks really good. This tutorial has so many good things in it and the jeweling was a great thing to learn. Thanks for sharing this.
Jewelling My late friend Glenn was a master gunsmith. He would take a new box of ordinary pencils and cut off the eraser end to about two inches. Then would chuck it up on a drill press, eraser down, and using lapping compound he would proceed to jewel some very expensive guns. His guns would show off his mastery.
Great idea with the scotchbrite for the jeweling dowel! One of these days I have to try that. I like that ferrier's file. I think I have one of those with the coarse teeth. Not sure what I'd use it for but it's cool. Glad you picked up an air filter system. Gotta keep those lungs clean with all the metal and wood sanding you do.
Scout, please be careful with your buck saw. That blade looks like a hacksaw blade. It has the small teeth for cutting metal and is probably tempered which means it could break if it catches in a piece off wood. Thanks for the dowel cutting tip and the jewel in seminar. It was a gem!
Some good stuff you got and for good prices. That rasp is very nice. That Rikon should do you some good with fresh air. I should get one for our house, my wife has bad allergies. I love jeweling. I saw Larry Potterfield jewel a rifle bolt with the similar sticks you had (the rubber ones). Turned out beautiful. I should jewel the bezel on my '64 Chevy C10....... Hmmmmm. Love Wednesdays! and MMM's and Fridays.....
Lol my wife looked over my shoulder and said " why on earth are you watching a video about cigarette butts!!" Great stuff as normal oh and my wife takes it back. jewelling she approves of!
I put the Wen version of the air filter in my shop last year and what a difference it makes. Certainly not as good as a high end filtration unit, but far better than the clouds that would hang in there for days after a project. Never tried jeweling anything, might have to have a play with it!
Thanks for the jeweling tutorial John. You always seem to find a lot of good stuff when you are out and about. One of these days I might get a Rikon. Take care. Jim
Thank you for the jeweling tutorial Scoutcrafter. You’re the best! I’m going to save this video in my library. That 2x4 dowel cutting trick is top notch brother. My friend just got one of those air filtration systems for his shop and loves it. I want to try some of those German sanding blocks. They make such great stuff. Take care. 👍🏼
Terry Sanders Yes! Pencil erasers work great and I think they are similar to cratex... The only problem is from spinning the abrasive picks up swarf and begins to deteriorate quickly. That’s why you need a few dowels for a job.
$180 is cheap compared to lung problems. I think that the Rikon was a good investment in your health. I would think that they would sell well in LA, CA. The saw blade looks like it goes to my power hacksaw. Very kool jeweling technique. I was taught the lapping compound way over 50 years ago. Your way is faster and cleaner. Good Luck, Rick
Funny...I just bought a Vintage Heller Bros Hoof Rasp at my neighbors garage sale...its a bit older looking than yours and has a handle...thanks for the Jeweling info ...need to try that one of these days....Thumbs up Scout!!
I'm so glad they are finally listening about clam packaging. Now they snap open and close. You don't have to almost stab yourself lol. This was very neat stuff. Do you remember when they delivered ice and they carried the block with those praying mantis looking thingys lol. Do you have any of those? Thanks Scout for taking us along and sharing :3 stay safe scout
Lord Venger I was born in ‘62 and we had electric by then but we still had the icebox down the basement until I finally got rid of it 6 years ago! I do have some ice tongs! 😃👍
Are you supposed to keep eyedrops refrigerated? I don't keep my CA in the fridge because when I need glue I have no patience to go upstairs and get it! =)
Hello! Hey this was great and very informative, Ive been wanting to try my hand at this for years and this made it so much simpler that I had Imagined. Thanks!
I use drumsticks for jeweling I wrap Scotch-Brite around the pointy tip and tie it on with wire seems to work really good and gives you a smaller circle
really nicely made.... these sandbox, biggest deficiency in my country...I can't find them easily...there are a lot of them but always soft density always soft... and I really like your air cleaner...
Sterling Saw Blade in Chafee, NY are still in business. They use to be Diamond Saw. That's near my home town and actually used to sponsor my Racecar! Check out their website.
Thanks John I learned something new again today always wondered how jewel steel. I also need to get one those air cleaners my lungs are about shot to from years of being in the shop and engine rooms and smoking I don’t do engine rooms anymore and I quit smoking for years ago.
That saw blade looks like it's for a power hacksaw to me. If you're cutting corrugated roofing it should work great, not too sure about wood though. You could get away with using a bandsaw blade if you break it and drill some holes. In one of mrpete's videos (JEWELING Tips #469) he features his friend Palmer Moynihan showing another way to do the jeweling using sandblasting media and a pair of rulers, as well as mentioning doing it with a wire brush and other things. There's a company called Weiler selling some specialty banded wire and "nylox" abrasive brushes with that might work with that method. A lot of their wire brushes are really high quality and made in USA.
@@ScoutCrafter Can't wait to see what you'll make of it. Power hacksaw blades aren't that common so I've never heard of someone doing it for a wood saw before. Regular hacksaws are a good option for fine cuts so it'll be interesting.
Loved it as usual I put “jeweling” on part of a hunting knife that went through a fire. It had pitting too deep to get all of it out. I free handed it so that it would not be in a pattern. It turned out really cool. Because of the crazy pattern your eyes could not see the pits. But now I have to try the straight pattern. Would a square or triangle make any difference? Love the vids keep up the good work. Oh, if you haven’t tried an ice skate file you have missed out. Soooooo wonderful on axes, knives, hatchets and removing stock
Teresa- One tricky part of jeweling is getting the right pattern, the best way is on a milling machine or any machine with a moving table, then you just move the table with a hand wheel in a perfect line... I have seen ice skate file holders (cast iron) but not so much the files! I have to look into them!
Wow the weather looks great for another nice front porch opening of your informative video. The jeweling section was cool, seems like the best results to be on soft materials such as brass or aluminum is there a special procedure to have it come out better on harder surfaces?
Great video scout love the items you picked up I need one of those fans great addition to The shop I bet you can’t put a price on health that for sure I have a Dyson purification unit The air just smells different like you say I’m definitely going to try the jeweling technique on some Of my tools looks great on aluminium could you make a stick for harder metal with emery cloth or sand paper 🧻 God bless take care 🇺🇸👏🇳🇿👍
I had a record power air cleaner it was too powerful for my shop, being small it kept the air cool and clean to extent that I had to turn it off because it would get to cold in the winter.
Another good video. Fun to see somethings I do validated. I have a variable speed wood lathe and want to try your wire wheel method on it. How are you attaching the wheel to the head stock. Your camera angle doesn’t quite reveal your attachment method. My lathe is a Robust with a 25” swing so plenty of vertical space but might need to extend the horizontal. Any tips would be great. Jeweling tips were great. Sand Flex blocks are outstanding.
John, did you buy that air filter based on my questions about keeping your shop clean? I bought mine through grizzly. It looks and costs the same as yours. I bet the same company in China made both of ours. The problem I found is that the filters clogged very quickly. I've had mine about 6 weeks and I'm on my 2nd $30 filter.
John- I will find a filter supplier... Even if I have to make an adapter. A filter should only cost a few dollars, it's good to know that machine kept all that gunk out of your lungs!!!!!! Thanks John
I've been watching your videos for quite a while and I've heard you mention from time to time different mixes and compounds you make up for different applications have you ever made a video and kind of went through all your different mixes and what they are used for?
Clark LOL- You know I waited over a year for them to come and put electricity on my property upstate, I just wanted a box I could tap into while up there... after about 18 months they called me and said “We are ready to look at your site” I told them “No Thanks I bought a generator”. 😃👍
Very innovative way to square cut those dowels using that 2X4 scrap. Nice! I'm sure you are aware that, not only does jeweling look great; it has functionality as well. Particularly in firearms. It helps hold the lubrication in a specific area. I like the Scotchbrite way better, as well. Good show.
Stephen Bridges I just watched a Rolex watch service on CZcams and the entire inside is jeweled! Looked like by hand too! 😃👍

Jeweling is also called " engine turning " in some automotive circles. You will see it used on dash boards and firewalls.
Hey Scout, I love the way you take something so simple like jeweling and explain it in a way that is interesting even to those of us that know how to do it. You’re an excellent teacher.

My father made files at Heller years ago. Still have a bunch of nos files that he acquired while he worked there back in the early 80's.
That is so cool. Nothing better than a good rasp and files. I've used cheapos and they stink.

@@ScoutCrafter that's a scouts left handed thumb's up by the way :D
Thanks for the jeweling demo John, great effect and so easy, definitely going to use it on some of my projects.
It may be possible to use an incremental jig (like incra-jig) to really nail the spacings on a jeweled finish. Just a thought.
Good tip on cutting dowels with the block of wood. Thanks

Nice score on the air filter! Rikon appears to make good stuff. Thanks for the refresher on jeweling. Cheers
Hi, Viewing your show reminded me - one can achieve similar but smaller results by chucking a new #2 wood pencil [eraser down]. Cheers, Terry.
Terry Sanders Yes! Pencil erasers work great and I think they are similar to cratex... The only problem is from spinning the abrasive picks up swarf and begins to deteriorate quickly. That’s why you need a few dowels for a job.

Great dowel cutting jig. Thx for the idea. Wonderful video as always.
Found your jeweling video...happy camper!
👍😎🤠🇺🇸 Speaking of favorite channels, this one is mine. Appreciate all your efforts, here, John🤠
Thank you for the lesson on jeweling/engine turning! Always thought it was a very cool effect, and now I can replicate it.
Thanks again. So happy you showed the jewling process.
Thanks my friend. I didn't know that. Have a great weekend.

Lord Venger I was born in ‘62 and we had electric by then but we still had the icebox down the basement until I finally got rid of it 6 years ago! I do have some ice tongs! 😃👍
@@ScoutCrafter That is so neat. I've always wondered if you had some. I think how they did ice then was pretty cool no pun intended :P
I used those Sandflex blocks while restoring my 1950s Craftsman table saw. They did a nice for the final steps in cleaning up the cast iron top.
You will enjoy the air cleaner. I put one in my new shop and it keeps the shop and my lungs clean 🙂
That is one of those purchases you make after you realize how important it is! =) Thanks!
I now feel like I need to go to my garage and Jewl something.... If only I had an aluminum boat!
that's awesome.Ill be using this. I thought the jeweling process was a big involved deal. The scotchbright looks exactly like craftsman pattern.
Nice demo on the jeweling. I’m going to give that a try soon.
Fantastic video but always remember to keep your CA glue separate from your eye drops in the refrigerator !😱.
Are you supposed to keep eyedrops refrigerated? I don't keep my CA in the fridge because when I need glue I have no patience to go upstairs and get it! =)
The jeweling looks great and really simple thanks for sharing
Hello! Hey this was great and very informative, Ive been wanting to try my hand at this for years and this made it so much simpler that I had Imagined. Thanks!
Great video as always John, nice air filtering unit.
John, fantastic video, I'm interested in seeing how you make a handle for that large file , they make the end of the file kind of short
Yes! I will never understand the reason a tapered tang is on the end of files instead of a handle... Makes no sense! =)
Try a piece of rough leather on the end of your dowel and then use your lapping compound. Gives a finish similar to the Scotch Brite.
Ron - Great tip! I thought I needed a pad of some type! Thanks!
That air filter looks awesome. Would be great to keep in the house too.
Just ordered sandflex. I don’t have a 1x30 sander so I’m hoping to use these for polishing my old tool restorations.
One of the best files is the adjustable car body file. The lapping compound would have been better on the Hammer, excellent tutorial.
Tony You’re right! That Eastwing Steel is HARD! 😂
I should have one of the air cleaners in my basement but I'm too cheap! I've had good success with the scotch bright dowel jeweling technique!
The box-fan type air filter can be made for less then $25! We make so much dust restoring tools! =)
That’s a neat trick with the dowel jig Scout.
That’s worth the watch In itself.
I use drumsticks for jeweling I wrap Scotch-Brite around the pointy tip and tie it on with wire seems to work really good and gives you a smaller circle
I did some jeweling on the sides of a couple cheap block planes. It is fun to play with
Always something to learn here! Great stuff as alaways.
really nicely made.... these sandbox, biggest deficiency in my country...I can't find them easily...there are a lot of them but always soft density always soft... and I really like your air cleaner...
Kadir Yes! Try a automotive parts store!
Thnx for tip,sir...You are lifesaver...
Terrific! Now I have no excuse but to try jeweling myself. Thanks for another great one.
A friend gave me a rusty farrier file and I made a cool knife out of it, leaving most of the teeth on it. Used cherry wood for a handle.
Paintnamer I love File knives!
Sterling Saw Blade in Chafee, NY are still in business. They use to be Diamond Saw. That's near my home town and actually used to sponsor my Racecar! Check out their website.

Thanks John I learned something new again today always wondered how jewel steel. I also need to get one those air cleaners my lungs are about shot to from years of being in the shop and engine rooms and smoking I don’t do engine rooms anymore and I quit smoking for years ago.
Allen- I just spent a few hours in the shop and I must say the air was noticeably cleaner! I shouldn't have waited so long! =D
I thought it was cool when you did it with a pencil's eraser end and some sandpaper, but this is awesome.
That blade looks like one we used on a powered hacksaw to cut rail about 40 years ago. If it is it’s very hard and will break if it binds
Time to start smokin' again with all that clean air. Nice filter.
That saw blade looks like it's for a power hacksaw to me. If you're cutting corrugated roofing it should work great, not too sure about wood though. You could get away with using a bandsaw blade if you break it and drill some holes.

I had a record power air cleaner it was too powerful for my shop, being small it kept the air cool and clean to extent that I had to turn it off because it would get to cold in the winter.
Another good video. Fun to see somethings I do validated. I have a variable speed wood lathe and want to try your wire wheel method on it. How are you attaching the wheel to the head stock. Your camera angle doesn’t quite reveal your attachment method. My lathe is a Robust with a 25” swing so plenty of vertical space but might need to extend the horizontal. Any tips would be great. Jeweling tips were great. Sand Flex blocks are outstanding.
Hello Robin- My lathe has a M2 internal tapers I bought a M2-to a buffing wheel arbor- www.highlandwoodworking.com/lathearbor2mt.aspx
Hope that helps!
Thanks I will order tomorrow AM
I think I need one of those Rikons!!
I thought I saw you walking out with that air filter.
LOL- It's funny Abe how when you walk out with a big box at the show everyone is wondering what you bought! =D
good stuff...
John, did you buy that air filter based on my questions about keeping your shop clean? I bought mine through grizzly. It looks and costs the same as yours. I bet the same company in China made both of ours. The problem I found is that the filters clogged very quickly. I've had mine about 6 weeks and I'm on my 2nd $30 filter.
....I guess they get you coming and going. Just like the companies that sell you printers and ink.
John- I will find a filter supplier... Even if I have to make an adapter. A filter should only cost a few dollars, it's good to know that machine kept all that gunk out of your lungs!!!!!! Thanks John
@@ScoutCrafter I like your idea better than paying big money for a filter. I'll make some sort of adapter too.
I've been watching your videos for quite a while and I've heard you mention from time to time different mixes and compounds you make up for different applications have you ever made a video and kind of went through all your different mixes and what they are used for?
I really need to make a few play-lists of stuff! "My Home Brew Lubricant" videos (2 part) cover most of the lubricants... Thanks!
Contrary to popular belief, we do have electricity upstate. Just kidding. Also a big EngelsCoachShop fan
Clark LOL- You know I waited over a year for them to come and put electricity on my property upstate, I just wanted a box I could tap into while up there... after about 18 months they called me and said “We are ready to look at your site” I told them “No Thanks I bought a generator”. 😃👍
