The gouge is ground back far enough on the under side to make
the cutting edge level with its back, and then beveled off on the
inside to a sharp edge. The gouge E is placed in the hole D with the
cutting edge on the center line, as shown, and held in place with a
wood plug, F. A little soap applied to the bore C will prevent binding.
To use the tool, a strip of wood is pointed sufficiently to allow it to
enter the hole C a short distance. The strip may be rotated by
holding it in the chuck of a lathe while the tool is held in the hand,
using the handle of the gouge to prevent its turning with the stick.—

Hanging Ladder for a Hatchway
A handy ladder to swing from a hatchway can be made of a solid
plank, as shown. Cut the plank to the length desired and saw
notches on each side to form steps. With a solid hook to fasten it in a
similar hook in the ceiling, at the edge of the opening, it makes a
novel yet practical ladder.—Contributed by Victor Carpenter, South

An Oilcan Stopper
An empty cartridge shell makes an excellent stopper for an oilcan
in case the original stopper becomes lost. The cap in the shell is
removed and the hole enlarged with the tang of a file so that a
leather thong can be inserted. A knot is tied in the thong on both
sides of the base, to prevent the thong from slipping either way. The
end of the thong is tied to the bail of the can.
Enamel for Steel Fishing Rods
Make a thin solution of shellac in alcohol and add a teaspoonful of
Venice turpentine to each half pint, and the same quantity of
lampblack for a black enamel. Scrape the bare spots on the rod and
heat it slightly, to melt the shellac for the first coat. Use a fine brush
and apply two or three coats, which will give a smooth, glossy, and
elastic surface that will not scale or crack.
Bench Receptacles for Small Articles
When working with small, round articles, such as ball bearings, it
often happens that they roll off the bench and are lost. To remedy
this, I bored several holes, each 2 in. in diameter, in a convenient
place in the workbench top, making them about ³⁄₈ in. deep, for the
different articles. To make the small parts easily accessible the holes
were filled in with thick paste made of plaster of Paris which was
molded into a saucer shape. After the plaster became thoroughly dry
the inner surface was painted over with white enamel. This made
them easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Any article dropped into
these depressions will roll to the center, and as the sides are curved
it can be easily picked up when it is wanted.—Contributed by Frank
