I haven't posted in a while. I have been in the middle of a full house remodel. Picked this up lot at an online auction a couple weeks ago. Bought it for the IH set as well as 2 IH screwdrivers but got a few items for my toolbox as well. Here is the eBay auction on the IH socket set...

Well I'll be dipped. thanks guys

It does look like it, never seen one on a wood handle

Is this a tinsmiths hammer of some kind? Found this in a box of junk. Looks well made. No numbers or any markings. Any help is appreciated. Thanks guys

Picked up this odd duck a month ago. My FIL found it at an auction. I think I will leave it original, just clean it up a bit. Its a "DIAMOND VISE" made by the ADAMS COMPANY, of DUBUQUE, IA. Just up the river from my place. Its in nice shape for its age. The rear jaw moves into different...

Picked these up from the ReStore this week. 1/4 RHFT ratchet for 2$ and the set for 16$. I've never seen this set with the half deep sockets and flex head stubby ratchet. Its complete minus a couple of driver bits

Estate sale today 75 Deere 520 15 for the Reed 103 40 for all the cast iron All the cast iron is old Warner with 1 piece of Griswold #9 that I will keep. I need to learn how to clean it all up and season it. The only cast iron pan I have was seasoned when I bought it. The Little Reed had...

you could get a pair of these off the web. But IMO take that $$ and put it into a new system. THey have come a long way in the last 10 years https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077MCTL8L/?tag=atomicindus08-20

7$ for the haul. Gotta love Pawn Shops. I laughed when I saw the Harbor Freight freebe screwdriver set on the shelf next to the bins I got these out of for 9.99. SnapOn BF6088 (the asking price was a 1.99 LOL) SnapOn BF611B SnapOn Slip joint 91CP Indstro mini screwdriver(my Fav) Full pack of...

I thought I would put this out there. Quick project for today after I put a new O2 sensor in the Tundra. I have been looking on Amazon at the 3D printed power adapters. I thought they would be handy to have to test trailer lights and other 12v projects. I'm a Dewalt 12V max fan and had a...

Pawn shops today and the Restore on the hammer. Heller #2 $3 Williams BTW-1RC and S-53 $30 No steals but I really wanted that S-53, most of them I have seen have been trashed and this one is very nice. Does any one have any experience with the Williams torque wrench. Its an inch pounds...

Good tools are good tools. Vintage is not always better. Most of my SAE stuff is vintage and that is most of what is needed at work. Those items are most all mismatch and bought at auctions and pawn shops. On my personal Vehicles and the tractors Metric is the common. Those tools are mainly...

I could have done that with cutting some of the lip off of the saw mount and run some bolts through the case but my hands would have rubbed on them when in use. I used the tabs on the saw to hold the small piece of plywood. If I had an old battery for this saw I would have used that to mount...

I got this saw from my FIL, he is a bit of an auction hound and got it in a lot of Dewalt 18v stuff he purchased. I use a combo of battery power tools in my garage but not any Bosch(m12 m18 and 12V max Dewalt). The M18 battery would be the best fit for this saw. With just this one tool I did...
