Cutlers Stiddy's

Post by PACKLEAD3R »

Hello
Does anyone know where a person could possibly find a Cutler's stiddy, or even have a suggestion where a person could have one made?

Thanks in advance

I’ve seen a few nice ones made out of old pieces of railroad track and a piece of angle iron (someone in here just posted a photo of one recently but I can’t remember who it was).
As far as the real stidies that appear from time to time, I’ve only seen them once or twice on E-bay.

G day there,
I also posted a photo of a stiddy I made from cane tram rail line. Wheni took the photo it was unfinished but I have since 'pulled my finger out' as we Aussies say and completed it.
While it is rail line it is very light line.
To explain further, it is a piece of scrap sugar cane railway track.It is abundant where I live in the sugar cane growing area of Central and North East coast Australia.
Its construction was dependent on owning a band saw with a good blade that cut and having a mate with a mill who cut the top deck and sides to make it look nice.All cuts bar the top were made with my 6x4 bandsaw.
I'll take a pic of the finished one buy meantime if it helps, here is a drawing from the net.
