Shop Hook Board

The regular nails, with the hook shape but no special design at the head, can be made into a coat or jacket boards for the shop. The knifemaker's aunt returned to the scrap pile of wood pieces left over from the ramp project. She changed the quote used for the shop stool and put it on a piece of wood: "The cutting edge of custom is a dynamic place. Leave your hang ups here." No gemstones, or special meanings other than the idea that no one brings a bunch of stuff into the shop where it can get in they way (physically, or maybe emotionally?).

There's nothing like lining up a bunch of forged nails to see the imperfections!
