Hi Meri. I want to put a niknax link to my store on my business card.  Does my store have its own url?  Or how do people do this?

I’m sorry to hear that the item broke in transit. Yes you would refund her in full and then file a claim with the post office.

Hi! It’s under the heading of train station, but here’s the direct link - https://district.net/niknax/channel/nntraingazette

I have a buyer who received an apothecary jar from me well packed but broken. The USPS took weeks for her to receive it. Like it was stuck at a facility for a long time.. Do I refund her directly then make a claim with post office?

Jocelyn mentioned the Gazette was available in the chat channels, but I can't seem to find it. Thanks in advance.

I DMed you

Hi Mari, as many others I am waiting for an answer about my application. It’s been 3 months. I’ve messaged Jo as she told me to do on the coffee chat, I’ve messaged you personally, and sent an email as I’ve also been told to do. I’ve heard nothing back. Is there no way to get an update? My painted tree booth partner was approved within days back in December.

Me too. My application shows as pending.  how long does the process take?  I have an ebay presence under LadyKashmer.

Thanks for the info. I thought I might have missed the approval email. I await with bated breath.

How do you follow a seller

A raid is when one seller brings their viewers into another sellers show. So if Seller A is getting ready to end their sale, they will bring all of their viewers over to Seller B’s show so that they can keep shopping.

what does it mean to get a

Can you tell me how to go to an Individual store?

Hi Stacey. Usually there's about a 3-4 month wait. If you applied before that, it could any number of reasons why the application hasn't been approved. When did you apply and have you reapplied at all?

I applied last year to sell on Niknax and still haven't heard anything. I asked for help on the chat forum and was given this "chat" again. How do I get approved to sell?

Hi Jayne. I sent you a private message here answering your question

Hello, I really don't know where to turn for help. I am unable to remember who I bought my last two items. Coffee mug with hummingbird on it and a blown glass spider. I do believe I have two accounts because up until Feb 8 I could go in a check all things, haven't been able to since. Also, it would not let me use my primary email due to "it is already used" but It is mine. So I had to enter my 2nd email account as jaynesmith0505.gmail. Thanks for any help.

@lozzaandfletch , @sunidazeahead please ask all seller related questions in the sellers chat, thank you!

Thanks

Hello @vd_antique and @robynbanx .  The application process can take on average around 3 months to complete. This is due to the overwhelming amount of applications that we receive every day. Please be patient as we get through them all (we currently have around 800 applications waiting). You'll receive an email if you're approved or denied. If you receive a denial, please read the email in full as we're asking for more information.

Good morning, I applied to sell on Nix Nax quite a while ago. Any updates on my application?

@meriwether_market hi Meri. I applied for your app in the beginning of December. How can I get the decision from you? Also, when I applied there were only one option to choose what I want to sell. In reality I have a variety of items from jewelry, books, glass, pottery to paintings and vintage clothes and shoes. Please, help me to understand the process for application and start to use your app asap. Thank you

You can apply via the home page on Niknax.net. Please make sure you tell us what you want to sell, where you're selling now and include any links. If you haven't sold online before, please let us know that too. Thanks!

Good morning and Happy Sunday! If you've applied and are wondering about the waiting period, we do have an average of a 3 month wait. We simply have more applications than we can approve all at once. If you feel you've waited for longer than those 3 months, please email the team at community@niknax.net and we'll look into it.

Would like to list on your platform.

I use just regular bits in my egg beater, mostly for pilot holes. mine do slip now and then, but I just can not tighten the chuck up tight enough anymore. I have been thinking about using a file to make some "platforms" for the chuck to grab onto, but I have not gotten that far.

I did not know that such a thing was made, I never go on leevally site, I always figured they where expensive. But just a little over $10, I think that is not bad to be able to use the old drivers, it's cheaper then buying the correct bits.  I may just have to order one and see how I like it... thanks for the info!

Yes, indeed :-) !!! It is frustrating to have a beautiful, well-machined (and maybe even restored) tool, and not have a clue of what fits into it to make it useful in the shop.

Yes, they are perfectly round on the shank, not hex like the ones for the power drills. Those slip. Frustrating as no one on the island has the old round ones in any sort of savable condition. No rush! I will just wait until I see someone offering an affordable small set.

You can get an adapter for the Yankees push drill. https://www.leevalley.com/en-us/shop/tools/hand-tools/screwdrivers/57809-hex-adapter-for-yankee-screwdrivers

Well...Then I guess I will have to figure out what type of bit fits the tools that I own, Since I have no bits, I have nothing to compare to what works with what. I just ended up with several in box lots and thought "hey these are cool, I'll keep and use them".. but maybe I might have o rethink this....

I have some yankee drivers and bits and they have the bits like the ones I posted above, with the notch.

I also have some other brands of push drivers and their bits also have the notch.

And I have several push/ratcheting screwdrivers that have the same design with the notch.

Alex, these are the bits that I use in my old egg beater. They actually don’t slip and work fine.

Yankee bits for the push tools

I could use a cap iron for a Millers Falls #3. Anyone have a spare?

Huh, I never thought about using an egg beater drill...

I don't know, but my modern 6-sided DeWalt drill bits slip (don't tighten sufficiently) in the old excellent condition three-piece jaw of my egg-beater drill, not to mention I think they are too aggressive for the egg-beater. i wouldn't mind hearing about what bits the old egg-beaters used, as well as the push/Yankee tools.

Are all the push/yankee drill bits made the same? the photos I have seen just look like a round shank with a notch cut into it. I have several yankee screw drivers that I find cool and would like to use, but I have no bits. So, I have the idea of making a 1/4 modern adapter work into a yankee screwdriver. However not having any bits to compare to I am not sure exactly how each screw driver locks onto the bits, or it they are all the same.  So does anyone have a few different types/brands of "yankee" screw drivers an can tell me if the locking mechanism works the same on them all?  also what is the diameter of the shank of the bit?  thanks in advance..

That might be a little hard to find. I see the whole things for sale every now and then, but never the parts. I have one like that that I need a few parts for as well, but only see full units with high shipping. If you have all the parts, have someone weld it back together. If they do a good job and grind the welds correctly, a little repaint and no one will ever know!

It's not a definite that these will work for a 55, but it seems that anything that works with a 45 would work with a 55 (though not true in the other direction). I was looking on youtube for tips about using the 45 and saw a comment that Lee Valley makes a combination plane and that all the irons they sell on there work with the 45. You may be able to find what you need on there. Still not exactly cheap, but it's a source. Beyond that, might be worth grabbing some tool steel and cutting your own shapes as you need them. Seems like a pain but if you need a particular shape it's an option.

4 1/2 are a little on the hard to find side, there are a couple on eBay right now, one I think is missing the knob and tote that is not to expense yet. I actually got mine from the UK, it was cheaper to buy and pay the shipping then to buy one in the US. I used mine a little, but that thing is a beast LOL...

I've got a four handyman stanley

The irons are worth more then the actual plane in most cases. Even rusty piles of mix matched irons/blades are expensive.  You might have luck getting them a little cheaper in the UK on eBay, but the shipping can be expensive too

Hi, I'm looking for a no. 4 1/2. I don't have a brand preference necessarily, but Stanley is preferred

I'm looking for a set of molding plane irons for a Stanley 55. Inherited the tool, but I've only got the one blade.  E-bay has sets of them, but whoa, they're pricey.  Looks like lots of folks are selling pristine original boxes and such: I just want the metal.  even rusty piles of metal would be okay.  Anyone?

No problem.. I do not know much about the wooden planes, I do not really deal with them at all, got a couple, but I try to stay away from them myself.   I did see this aution this morning with my daily search on ebay.https://www.ebay.com/itm/256807965219?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=v1j3t3WKTty&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=KYSMdXJ2SG6&widget_ver=artemis&media

I assume you are referring to a wooden plow plane, if not ir would be handy to know what your plow is/number.  If a wooden, I saw 2 listings on ebay this morning I think there was 5 or so in each auction. No idea the price, I just scrolled past them..

My plow plane has an iron just shy of 1/2 inches, need some more irons for different grooves, metric or imperial are fine.

Looking for any certain type/year? Do you want one ready to work, or do you want one to rework yourself? What is your price range?  I have several that are in line to sell on here, but all need to be cleaned up and sharpened.

I’m looking for a cheap Stanley no. 5

Now that is interesting, I like it!!
