Hello all its been a while since I checked in, the app on my phone seems to have issues and will only crash now. I didn't make it through all the pages I missed but you all sure keep finding those 'you ****' deals! Here are my entries from the past few weeks. Got a cheap Fly rod for $1 at a...

3jakes, that's a good find there, I also think those are some you **** prices. Nice job. Last week I picked this oily dirty 20v saw on the right from my favorite dumpster. About six to ten months ago I picked the saw on the left from the same dumpster. I had already purchased a battery adapter...

That's a you **** right there. Great find!

Piston looks slightly scored on the exhaust side, most usually are. Ill dig in to it later this week once I get a few other projects done. At the minimum it will be good for a few parts.

Picked this chainsaw from the dumpster yesterday. Needs a muffler, bar and chain and a bucket full of TLC, but I have plenty of that. Pretty happy with this.

Grabbed a disassembled engine hoist minus the ram from the curb two weeks ago. Also got 3 more mowers to fix and pass to new homes that week. Picked up a ram at the local scrap yard for $10 last week. I just need to clean it up and throw some new seals and oil in it and it should be perfect for...

Nabbed this staple puller from a dumpster at the end of January. The jaw was frozen, but a little oil and persuasion has gotten it moving freely again. Handle was repaired in the past but appears to be perfectly functional. Warm Cali thoughts to all you out there in colder than ice weather.

I picked up these solar panels, inverter, batteries and misc wiring at the end of December but didn't get them set up untill mid January. I charge all my cordless batteries with it, I even switched out my mower, line trimmer and blower over to rechargeable batteries. This is the temporary set up...

Picked this weather tool, aka weather station from my favorite dumpster on Saturday. Seems to work fine except for the outdoor humidy reading. I was looking in to buying one of these about a month ago. Also got a galvanized drip pan, and some gardening stakes.

Probably the most attractive looking screwdriver I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing.

I forgot about this estate sale I went to over the summer. I got this box of miscellaneous electrical stuff, two smaller isolation transformers, a huge what looks to be isolation transformer, this 2.25" diamond core drill bit (about 20" long) a cable crimper (coaxial I think?) and some other...

Wow there have been some great finds out there. Great job everyone! Just goes to show that even in these crazy times there are still some deals to be found! I have some less impressive things to share but will share them anyway. I picked two tool bags and a workmate stand from my favorite...

So many great tools out there, im glad you are all able to collect and curate them. I just have a few little odds and ends over here that I found. $20 for the slightly damaged regulator and $10 for the tool assortment.

Picked up this Drill Dr and no name rivet set today for $15 total. From the picture it looked like the housing was cast but it turns out that it's just plastic. Diamond wheel looks good and motor sounds good. 03/2002 build, really happy to get this as I have been wanting/needing one for quite...

All, thanks for the info, great story about the Irwin screwdriver as well. Looks like the snapon is 1964 Don't know what the craftsman logos are but most of them are =v= one is -v- (top) one is -vv-44597 (2nd) third from top is c1, 4th from top is also c1 but on the other side it's stamped k...
