Order #35343!

Bump! $90 shipped!

I have a spare set of new/unused Wright metric wrenches that someone here will better use. Some dirt/stains on the outside of the wrench roll from storage, but the wrenches themselves are pristine and new. SKU 950, 7mm-19mm - $110 100 $90 shipped in the lower 48. Local pickup around...

Can't speak to either of those choices, but I have a Tone 1/4" ratchet that has an insanely compact head. They make a short handle (3.5") version if you want to go even smaller, as well as a flex head. It had a touch of back-drag out of the box, but a couple of spins with a drill and it's...

Managed to find a FHLF80A in the road last night, which cleaned up beautifully except for the absolutely haggard grip. Before I head to ebay, I wanted to check if anyone here had replacement grips or a suitable screwdriver they'd sell. No preference on color, but I'd love a hard handle.

Well, this has got to be my luck for the year... Driving home on a quiet suburban road and spot something shiny up against the curb. Naturally, I cased the rest of the block to see if anything else had gotten bounced loose, but no. A little surface rust, so I think it'd been there a few...

Count me in!

Just finished unloading this seriously funky set of four Fisher Scientific lab cabinets. All steel, made in the USA and heavy duty drawer slides. Been on the hunt for some workbench storage for weeks and couldn't resist the super cool multi-color look. I have some damaged solid core doors at...

Well, several hours and one budding case of tennis elbow later, got them all shined up. Rest assured Beerhippie, nothing abrasive touched the tin linings. A few odd pieces (the kettle, ice bucket, and that one odd-colored saute pan) turned out to be no-name, but everything else was French...

If we count cooking tools, I think I hit the motherload. I'm the subbasement of an estate sale, tucked away in a corner in a damp box, was this: 24 pieces of Williams Sonoma tin-lined copper pots/pans, made by Mauviel in Villedieu-les-Poêles France. Tin linings look immaculate, and while they're...

Swung by an estate sale in prime Brooklyn Heights yesterday. Wild place, even with the walls crumbing and the roof caving in, place was probably worth 5-6 million. And the basement had a big old pile of tools! For $10 out the door:

Hey all, Looking to add a ratcheting bit driver to the tool box. Preference is for a Snap-On or Williams hard handle, but open to other options. Located in NYC, if anyone is local.

Sorted, thanks micromind!

Was fiddling with some plumbing fittings this morning and realized my SAE set is missing a 3/8". Figured I'd ask around here before going to Ebay. No preference on age or series, just looking for a USA to match.
