11k hours and perfect! Hoping to build building at main farm which is one mile from this one.

I should clarify I'm kind of winding down the farming operation and basically this will be a shop for repair of cars trucks lawn mowers etc. I can still get the big farm stuff in another track we have that's not heated so basically would do work on stuff if needed in the summer. Rented out all...

A lot of Ace Hardware's make custom screens and screen doors.

Lost 40 ft on a pole barn last week in a tornado or straight line wind, they haven't determined which yet. Looking at rebuilding but not on the end of the building that it was knocked off of, we'll just repair that building as it was storage anyways. Still waiting to hear back on insurance but...

I had some Wright sockets that peeled off razor blade chrome, and they wouldn't do a damn thing about it even after sending them to them and I had to pay the freight both ways. Bought a couple of replacement ones to make complete sets and sold every bit of Wright out of my toolbox. Williams are...

It looked clean on the lot and the test drive was good, but now 3 weeks later something is starting to drip....

I have the Mini ductor, have had it for 3 years now and it has worked fantastic. What's the price of acetylene today it's almost expensive not having one.

Tell me you ordered the one for the Cadillac fins like I did!

Kind of get the impression that they'll still make Hammers and dollies but just be branded for whoever they're making them for like Snap-on. For anybody needing hammers and a few spoons their prices on the Closeouts are amazing. $25 for a hammer that's at least 50 to 75 at other places. I have a...

Correct, I hadn't seen one of these in decades either.

Picked up this little gem off of marketplace, told the guy I didn't want the stuff that was in it but he left it in anyways and this interesting tool was in it.

My dad brought one of those grinders new in 1974 and I remember as a kid marveling how long it would take for it to spin down once it was shut off. It's been bolted to the same spot since that day in 1974 in an unheated shop and saw a lot of rough use for half a century and still takes forever...

I did a little research and you're not kidding! And apparently I got a pretty darn good deal on it.
