Timber Framers Guild Forums Archive Archive --- This old building Peg Chamfering tool

Looking for a tool/manufacturer of tool to bevel the hammered ends of pegs after they have been inserted so they will look similar to the lead ends.

Hi Tom:
I never thought to try that but I imagine there some pencil pointer type arragements out there in the market that will satisfy your wish. A small draw knife may get the look too.
Let us know when you find something.

You might experiment with one of the dowel tools used for rustic furniture and the like. I believe they have a concave radius on the entry point. Slightly different look.

Try Lee Valley Tools, they sell a "pencil sharpener" thing that chucks into your drill, maybe $50-$60.

Thanks Scott, but how do I get ahold of trivalley tools?

Scott: Found them on the net and ordered catalog. Thanks for the help

For other people who haven't found it on the web, you can reach Lee Valley Tools at www.leevalley.com
