Don't do much fine woodwork, I am a painter and make fine art stretchers and stretch my own canvases. I found this 1909 Langdon, Millers Falls mitre box on a garage trail in Sydney recently. Missing the near backsaw guide so I made another from some Chinchilla Gum I bought years ago. Fixed it...

Beautiful tools are a pleasure to work with, especially like the mitre saw. Have just scored a 1909 Langdon Millers Falls mitre box and in the process of tuning a Disston panel saw for it. Mitre saws are just too hard to come by. Just so much eye candy, you must have a great workshop.

Thanks for responses so far. I was thinking these might be off a portable work bench for drop saw or something similar. Will have a play and see what works. Cheers, G.

Found two of these one good one in need of repair. Stamped Record made in England. Any clues on where or how to use them? Thanks. Record Quick Vice
