We now have a full set of Ebony HNT Gordon Tools available. These were made for the beautiful Collaboration 1 Cabinet made by Phoebe Everill which housed a full set of Our tools and Colen Clenton Tools in matching ebony from the same tree. The decision was made to split the set up, so we now have the rare opportunity to offer you this unique set. This is the only set of tools we have ever made that has inlayed ebony knobs, making it highly collectable. The set also features the first Moving Fillister Plane ever made and is stamped with No. 1. Although not made yet, the first plow Plane will also be included in this set and is already included in the price. The price of this set is $27,000 AUD plus shipping. Please email us at planemaker@hntgordon.com.au for further information, or give us a call on (02) 66287222 to discuss. The set will also be for sale through Heartwood Tools in the USA in the near future.
Note: Cabinet not included. |

With only a few months until Christmas, we are starting to plan ahead for this busy time of year. This year will be a bit different (mostly for international customers) with shipping delays due to COVID 19. Current shipping times for international orders is up to 20 days via express post. Shipping delays usually occur every year around Christmas due to the high volumes of parcels, and we suspect that with the Chrismas rush, as well as COVID19, shipping could have reasonable delays. For this reason, we are recommending international customers that if you would like your tools before Christmas it would be best to order by mid November. If you don't require your tools for Christmas, then you can order any time. There may also be delays for tools to be made as it is a very busy time of year.
Australia is also experiencing some delays with shipping, so try to order ahead of time to ensure you receive your tools for Christmas. Do bear in mind that not all tools are in stock and may have 1-2 week waiting periods to be made.
We will be in the workshop up until the 19th December 2020, and returning to work on the 5th of January 2021. You can place orders online during this period, however all orders and emails will be addressed and sent when we return in 2021. |

NEW 3/4" SHAFT BENCH DOGS |
|
Our new tail vice dogs with a 3/4” shaft are now available! These dogs are made from solid brass and have a 3/4" shaft with a 1” square head. You have the option of different head heights ranging from 1mm to 3/4". Thinner head heights are ideal when working with thin veneers. The 3/4" shaft is approx 3 thou under to ensure a nice fit in your timber bench top holes. These dogs can't be used in our tail vices, as our tail vices house a 1/2" shaft dog only, which comes with your tail vice. These 3/4" shaft dogs are for those who already have 3/4" dog holes in their work bench, and can be used in conjunction with our tail vice.
These are available here: https://hntgordon.com.au/collections/bench-vices-clamps/products/tail-vice-dogs-3-4-shaft |
