A Dollar fifty an ounce is still pretty good with inflation and all. Nice hammer

I don’t usually buy snap on stuff or old screwdrivers, but I couldn’t pass up this blue point in great shape.

Decent plomb day at the flea market. A hand full of 3/4 drive sockets including a pair of Los Angeles sockets, one with the round O one without. Also a LA 3/8 extention and a 1214 combo.

I got a neat little None better 1/4” set in the mail yesterday. I bought it for the nice intact label, but I also kind of like the repaired spinner handle. Someone turned it down and added a pice of aluminum tube to contain the crack. It’s marked New Britain, the sockets and the breaker are none...

Thanks! You are a wealth of knowledge. Tell me you didn’t know that patent number by heart!

Thanks. When they come out of the evaporator I might find more markings.

You are correct. I know nothing of this infamous eagle patent. Do tell

Well it’s not multiple shipping crates full, but I did have a good plomb day at the flea market. Several unusual tools. -5469 hinged speeder - an odd 3/4” breaker bar marked with the round o Los Angeles and dxth along with a patent number - two old stamped a. Plomb doe’s. Both 7/16”x3/8”, bit...

I stopped by the flea market for the first time in weeks today and actually found a few things. A plomb wf40 speeder, a snap on fx61 flex extention , a 3/8 SK ratchet and a 4” proto adjustable. My favorite though was the little parts cabinet to add to my stack. It was like 9 bucks in all.

Free tools are the best. I cashed in my Home Depot and Ace hardware rewards points and got a bunch of new toys. A big Veto tote bag, Milwaukee lights, 7 and 10 inch cobras, and a stubby 1/4” Milwaukee ratchet.

I scored a 2 oz. Paschall hammer today for a buck! For those occasions when my 1 oz. just won’t get it done.

Awesome find. I was sure they didn’t exist! Now I’m back on the hunt.

I scored a nice hoard of plomb sockets at the flea market this morning, including a bunch of war time 3/8” drive and some 1/4” sockets. The bell of the ball is the 5221 socket (21/32), which I did not have. Date coded 1a.

Had a good morning at the flea market for the first time in a while. 19 bucks got me a Bonney 1/4” ratchet, sk breaker and sk Wayne driver, an artisan adjustable, a plomb 3/4” extension, and an enchilada tray full of mostly plomb sockets.

My free bag from the spring promo came in and I set it up to keep in my daily driver so I don’t have to take my van out for little jobs. Should be everything I need for small jobs like replacing a faucet or light fixture, etc… time will tell. The drill holster comes out to clip on a belt
