11 drawer vidmar on facebook marketplace. kildeer, IL. looks pretty good for $650. No fork pockets is a bit of a bummer, but otherwise a good deal if you need one.

Vintage vise, appears to be Columbian $30. I am thinking to go take a look, I have been kind of looking for my first vise rehab project, does this look like a good starter? At this price, can't get into too much trouble.

Edit; Not sure it's a good project.

If you are looking for a large drill press for not much money...

Item: Buffalo Forge #20 drill press $300
Location: Simi Valley, CA (new Los Angeles, CA)

Comments:
This is a pretty beefy 20" drill press with what looks to be an unmarked production table with T-Slots and a crank leadscrew for raising and lowering the table. It looks to have a Jacobs super chuck (ball bearing) and a MT-3 spindle taper for the chuck. The plug looks like a poorly wired NEMA 10-50, which means the motor is probably 240V single phase. The motor may also be able to be configured for 120V single phase. It weighs in at 525 lbs. For reference, the popular Delta 17" weighs about 380 lbs with motor.

It does need to be cleaned up, but depending on condition it may be a really nice drill press for the money. It is missing the pulley cover.

NEW! Mechanics Tool Set (815-Piece) - $650 (Philadelphia)​

Appears to be sealed in the original box. HD has it on sale for $999. Seems like a good way to start, find out what you actually use/need, then upgrade as you go.

Workbench:
Location: Thousand Oaks, CA

Workbench in what looks to be good condition. Metal legs look great. Looks like they have added a sheet of metal on the top. Not sure if the the wood top is butcher block or not. I have had a workbench identical to this for years and have been quite happy with it.

I have one of those benches, the frame is heavy and pretty bulletproof. Mine has a laminate top, which sags in the middle (not recommended). I only paid $40 for it.

Those pics are extremely weird! Who takes pics with one phone, then takes pics of that with another so they can post online???

If that IS legitimate, it'd be a major score. I wouldn't personally take the risk (I'm too chicken to go into major cities for any CL purchase).

Snagged it. It's in great shape. Apparently it came from a Neutrogena plant that closed. And as you can see, it stored soft goods so no warping or scratches inside the drawers.

Good lookin' out!
