    Stanley Vidmar Cabinets on Goverment Liquidation

    Well, these are already too rich for my blood. I think I will just buy one of the US General 44" boxes next time I'm at a Harbor Freight.

    Stanley Vidmar Cabinets on Goverment Liquidation

    Yeah, I generally go out there for random tech that is being sold off. I them bring it into my classroom or to the STEM club I run (I quite my other science-field jobs a couple years ago and took an Ohio incentive program to become a high school science teacher). I have several friends that are...

    Stanley Vidmar Cabinets on Goverment Liquidation

    I'll go for the last lot numbers. The 2 last of the fivers and the last of the tenners. Hey BCreek, do you happen to go to Dayton Hamvention? Edit: on a related note, I will be in New Hampsire this July (getting married in my fiancee's home town of Lee NH) so if they go for a decent price I...

    Stanley Vidmar Cabinets on Goverment Liquidation

    Let me know which ones you plan on bidding on and I'll do the same for you so we don't have a bidding war between GJers. I'll let you know if it gets too rich for my blood, incase you are still in on them. I am really just interested in 2 of the 5 drawers and maybe one of the larger ones...

    Stanley Vidmar Cabinets on Goverment Liquidation

    OK guys, I am going to see how this one goes. If these go for really cheap I am going to try to pick up several even if I have to rent a truck. I have a large-ish (25'x32') pole-barn/garage I am finishing (just needs electric and lighting at this point) that I can store them in. I also do not...

    I did about a month ago. We sold the horse trailer and tow vehicle as we were not using it enough and it cost to much to keep. Now I just have a little Tacoma. I must ponder this conundrum.

    SK 3/8" thumb drive ratchet - $14 shipped

    I got mine today. I actually really like the fine knurling. I think it works very well with the size of the thumb drive.

    SK 3/8" thumb drive ratchet - $14 shipped

    I had been wanting one of these for a little while now, but the cheapest I could find was about $23. He accepted by $7 offer and I just payed the slightly less than $14 after shipping. Thanks for posting this bfm336. On a side note is the 336 in your name a reference to the Marlin lever gun?

    Husky 200 pcs set with metal box $99

    How is the tool quality? How about the tool box? I can't say that I own much Husky brand tools. The few I do own are maybe a decade old. I assume they are all made in China now and of average quality.

    Free ! Alpha Telecore HF-850 sample.

    We actually have a bit of a robotics project we are working on with my Science Olympiad team and 2 parents expressed concern with lead-solder wire we were using. I am teaching at an ultra-low income school and basically have to buy all my materials myself. We'll see if they will send it to a...

    DeWalt 10pc metric ratcheting wrench set $29.99 - Sears Outlet

    I bought a set of these from the regular Sears website maybe 8 months back. They are very nice quality and a great length. They quickly became my favorite combination wrenches. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a high quality, lower cost set of ratcheting wrenches.

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    Any of you have a M12 grease gun? I recently bought a little tractor and was considering getting one to grease the 80 odd fittings on the tractor and attachments. I would prefer to stick with the M12 line as I have bought into several of the other M12 tools and have batteries for them.
