Happy Humpday...Triviola Time
When finishing a barrel coopers use this tool to create a shallow hollow around the inside edge of the tops and bottoms of the barrel sides.
What is it?

Re: Happy Humpday...Triviola Time
Can you say that again a little louder, I didn't hear the question because of all the noise from a flock of crows.
Re: Happy Humpday...Triviola Time
Sounds sorta like a Penelope, a Tom, a boat racing sport, even airplane.
Nope
No, but on review.....
....you will also get bonus points for guessing the tool used AFTER the tool of which I seek. Keep thinking!
Tom
Close but no cigar.....
Don, Like Gary, you get bonus points for guessing the tool that is used AFTER the tool I seek. Care to try again?
Tom
Hint Time!
This tool has a name similar to the last name of a passenger that was on the S.S. Minnow.

Re: Happy Humpday...Triviola Time
I believe that's a Cooper's Croze - John P. from merry old England (my wife wrote this, she's American and still thinks England is merry)
A MARYANN????
She is the one I remember best from that show----
Not what I seek
Croze has already been guessed. This tool is a specialty plane that would be used in tandem with the croze. That tool's name is what I seek.
Thanks
Tom
Me too...but nope.
Not the answer, but like you...I was a Mary Ann fan. Way cuter than Ginger!
Re: Hint Time!
Think I got it - a howel. As in Thurston the 3rd. (that nugget came from my American wife)
John P
If not a howel, how about a chive?
Thurston Howel says That's it!!
A howel plane cuts a groove inside a barrel that is followed by a croze. The croze follows the groove made by the howel.
Gary wins a handsome set of glue scrapers provided by The Handyman Club of America...congratulations!
Tom
Not my win. John Porritt 3hrs. sooner.
Oops! My Bad......
I missed John's answer. Thankfully I hadn't shipped the glue spreaders yet. A hearty congrats then goes to John. And as for Gary, you go empty handed this time. Go cry on your Golden Uni!!
