Click here to buy on eBay!

The head of this old cross pein hammer weighs 8 ounces, measures 3 1/2 inches long, and is in good condition. I can only determine the word ‘Tool’ in the arched maker mark, but I firmly believe it to be Atha Tool Co. and am selling it as such. It has been rehandled. Primitive looking, hand made handle. Length: 11 3/4 inches. See photo. 


Successful bidder pays USPS shipping with delivery confirmation. Save on shipping with multiple purchases.   


All items sold in as found condition. I buy old tools and things from estate sales, markets and auctions. I buy based purely on aesthetics – age, design, rarity of the maker & model. Do they work properly, or as they did when they were new? I don’t know and don’t guarantee it. I look for collectible, decorative & historical items.  


Most of the tools I sell are 50-125 years old and have been used, unless otherwise described. They are going to have wear, rust, staining, dings, chips, cracks, dirt, grease, non original parts, missing parts, ‘marriages’ and any variety of other maladies. There is no way for me to identify in the description every blemish and short coming of a used tool. If you want to buy a tool to be put to use like it was new, go to the Business/Industrial or Home categories on ebay.  


Use your common sense, and if you have any specific question or doubts about an item, e-mail me. I will do my best to answer your question. If you haven’t done so, don’t ask for a return or refund. 


Every tool collector has his/her own ‘secret way’ to refurbish their collectible tools. So, I don’t touch them and resell them just as they are. Many of the items I sell bear original owners initials or marks. If you are a collector who is adverse to this, please contact me and I will be glad to verify any such markings.


Take a look at my feedback and rest assured, I am not out to misrepresent an item, nor deceive a customer. And, certainly not to make any money! I’m doing this to save a valuable part of American history from going to the landfill.

Don’t get blocked out at auction’s end. Preempt the competition by bidding early.

How To Design And Construct Custom Concrete Countertops $6.99

by Bricklayer Admin ·

Bricklayer Tools

Click here to buy on eBay!

IN MY MANY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE I HAVE DESIGNED AND CONSTRUCTED NUMOROUS AMOUNTS OF COUNTERTOPS.

MY FAVORITE BEING CONCRETE.


THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS WITH THE MANY DIFFERENT WAYS YOU CAN COMPLETE THEM…WITH GLASS, ROCK, MARBLES, FOSSILS AND ANYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF.


IN THIS AUCTION YOU WILL RECIEVE MATERIALS ON HOW TO BUILD THE FORMS, HOW TO APPLY THE MATERIALS, AND HOW TO FINISH YOUR COUNTERTOPS COMPLETE WITH STEP BY STEP PHOTOS


THE COUNTERTOPS IN MY OWN HOME ARE STAINED CONCRETE. GOING THE ROUTE OF CONCRETE YOU CAN SAVE MONEY AS WELL AS GETTING A FINISHED MARBLE LOOK.

Why Concrete?

Concrete is an extraordinary material…


Concrete is an ideal medium to express relationships between art and craft, between architecture and contracting. Concrete is practical, expressive, and aesthetic all at once. From a primal and formless slurry, concrete can be trasformed into virtually any shape that becomes a solid mass. The possibilities for creative expression are endless. Concrete can be polished, stamped, stained or any of the combination. You can embed meaningful objects within it.


Concrete has substance and mass, permanence and warmth. It feels earthy, and is at home in both traditional and modern settings. It assumes forms that irrevocably touch our daily lives: bridges, highways, floors, walls… even countertops. Concrete is also surprisingly tactile. Cast and shaped, it can feel like stone rounded by the sea. Textured and colored, it can echo the patina of timeworn tile.


It first occurred to me to make a countertop out of concrete in 2009, when a friend and I were hired to design and renovate a relators house in my hometown. He gave us a modest budget and said, “This is what I can afford to spend; do whatever you want.” Armed with this rare creative license (and plenty of youthful exuberance) we aimed to be as innovative as possible.


This invitation to imagine, play, and explore inevitably led me to experiment in my own kitchen, where concrete and I became close friends. Armed with a fine arts background and lots of design energy, I channeled my creativity into the countertop and our custom residential design work. Our portfolio includes kitchen and bath designs. Concrete is our material of choice because its utility and durability are matched by its sculptural sensitivity. Hands-on experience has taught me and my team how to simplify the process and control the variables that affect the finished product. The malleability of this material make it a perfect choice for any countertop.


Because of its adaptability, concrete finds itself welcome in all areas of the home, especially in the kitchen and bath, but also in fireplaces, patios, garden paths, or water features. Concrete can also be used as a floor material with enormous creative advantages whether seeded, stained, stamped, broomed or diamond-finished. It can be a sole performer or play the supporting role to tile, mosaics, decorative aggregates, stone, wood, or metal. It is inexpensive, durable, noncombustible and impervious to decay.


There are so many different styles for edging of the countertops. Almost endless….


It’s well known by now that concrete has become a material that homeowners and designers are requesting and weaving into their homes, offices, retail outlets, restaurants, etc., in the most amazing ways. But leading the charge in the concrete craze are concrete countertops.


NOTE: THIS IS NOT A PROFESSIONALLY MADE BOOKLET. YOU WILL GET INFO AND STEP BY STEP MATERIALS ON HOW I MAKE THESE CONCRETE COUNTERTOPS..ALONG WITH A DISC OF COLOR PICTURES WITH START TO FINISH PHOTOS


CAN ALSO SEND THIS AS A DIGITAL COPY AND YOU WILL SAVE 2.00 ON THE SHIPPING. IF YOU WANT TO DO THAT JUST LET ME KNOW AFTER YOU WIN THE AUCTION, LIST THE EMAIL YOU WANT IT SENT TO, AND I WILL SEND A REVISED INVOICE.
