Any idea what this is ?

forgot to add these are the size of normal scissors..(7-8" ) And looking closer the Blade is steel ... With streaks of Copper .

made of Brass ? Bronze ? the only steel part is the Blade.. Cutter ?crimper? Came with a bunch of tinworking tools.. W. H. HORNER. is the only marking. (Size is about the same as an average pair of scissors)

Not sure about the size ...but It Looks A lot like my Battery Terminal puller.. (No pic... Cause it's m.i.a.)

Just got this today at a yardsale .. ($12 ) The only markings I can find are on the cast iron arch... JR 50 . Just curious how old it might be. And it looks like it was setup with a vbelt drive of an electric motor.. Any ideas what hp. it would take to run it ?

My $ 50.oo American Tool Works -16"X7' ($40. to buy from a farm auction +$10. in Nickel rod to weld up the broken "castiron"motormount ..(from when they dropped it moving it before the sale). Anyone happen to know where to find the tailstock for it ?

Just heard today... NAPA sells CRAFTSMAN tools now

Shadoe ...Yep...she has her own garage sofa too.. She's a rescue out of Yakima... My cousin had a friend going into a resthome and couldn't keep her...(they got her from the pound ..so if she went back...well...she wouldn't have left :( So she drove all the way over here to the "wetside" to...

. Whatever shape comes off of this with a whack of the hammer works just fine for me... (Real soapstone..dug out of my buddie's back field)

Yepp..got a Coats 10-10 early this summer at a yard sale for $20.oo ! Paid for itself the next week.. Changed 2 tires on our daily and removed about 12 junk tires off good rims...in a less than a quarter of the time my old coats manual would have... Oh And they threw in a Studgun..for shooting...

Northwest Washington state..near the canada border... Mostly just a 3/4 ton pickup and a car.. Maybe a 1-ton C.O.E. flatbed in the near future... Thanks all for the advice...I`ll be calling gravel companys tomorrow.

So this is what the "driveway/Parking" area for my shop looks like after this last freeze thaw cycle.....Obviously we need to fix this...Any recommendations on what to use that wont break the bank ? I`ve been told everything from ..standard pitrun gravel ..to Hogfuel .. recycled/chipped...
