    2019 Garage Sale Thread

    I made my first good tool haul of the year this morning. We stumbled on a yard sale with an older gentleman selling his tools. I have never bought this much Plomb tools at one sale! They are hard to find here in Arkansas. The small 1/4 set is New Britain.

    It was raining here this morning so we didn't get out early. There was one sale advertised in the paper that listed tools so we went there first. When we got to the sale there were tools still there but most where spoken for and in piles. I made the mistake of going through one group and was...

    Here are a couple of our finds from the weekend. I slept in and my wife went to a yard sale here before the rain started. Among the things she found was this 1969 Coleman U.S. Military lantern for $10.00. It looks like it will work but needs a mantle. :D On Thursday, a guy I knew was on his way...

    Scimonetti, The 22 Long Rifle can would have been sealed like a Spam can originally. There would have been a key to open the can attached to the bottom. You probably already know this, but WRA is short for Winchester Repeating Arms Company. :thumbup:

    Show off your old signs

    This has always been one of my favorites. I have had many signs over the years and still have a few but my wife bought this one at a yard sale for $35.00.

    I snagged a Craftsman mid-chest and a box of big wrenches this past Saturday, the wrenches look like they may have spent some time in a road box. I have already cleaned a few and they actually cleaned up fairly nice. <a...

    The VINTAGE toolboxes of Garage Journal!

    This is a set I bought at a estate auction last weekend. I cleaned out the bottom box and cleaned the boxes up a little. The top is branded Napa and the bottom is branded Napa / New Britain. The old boxes have plenty of character and I plan to leave them as is.

    let's see your craftsman block grinders

    I went to look at a Craftsman drill press last night and while looking at the drill press, I spied this beauty on the self in the back of the shed. I knew I had to have it when I saw it. It is dirty but it is in really good condition. It's a model 397.19590 1/2 HP.
