Whoa boy. I think that's all the money, but what a find!

The only thing that makes me nervous are those engraver tools. Did he engrave everything? It would **** to have all those super nice old Craftsman tools with "J. Johnson" engraved on all of them.



You really need to go buy that. :) At least go check it out.

Holy cow that heater must be a million btu!

That’s exactly what I was thinking as you posted that!
FYI...if that is so, count on 6 gal/hr. fuel consumption.

Don’t show up alone expecting to toss that table into your truck. If it is truly that size, the top plate alone weighs 250 pounds!

Awesome find sgs :beer:

Craftsman Bottom Box - will need some work due to bends. It's been sitting for a while - I think might be bought for 1/2 price.
I really like those old rounded Craftsmans - it I had enough skills to straighten it, I would probably be driving.

location (per CL): Stonington Rd at Green Haven Rd, Pawcatuck, CT



The Catch: if you get it, post the restoration thread in Vintage tools!

Another great find from sgs
Extra storage space at no cost! With serious casters too! How can you go wrong for $0.00?

Imagine how cool that would be for the guys who want television in their shop? Just pull out the CRT and replace it with a small HD flat screen.:thumbup:

Or a computer monitor so you can Bluetooth information from your phone and actually be able to read it!

FREE in Virginia Beach. Not on Craigslist though. In a local community app called Nextdoor.

I wish I had some space for em.

if anyone is looking at those and thinking about putting tools in them, be careful. neither the drawers individually, or the frame/case, were designed for those kinds of loads.

while they may work short term, things will sag and bind up . . . . .
