I just scored this toady at the local flee market. I've wanted one of these for a long time for the garage. It's not complete, but a buddy of mine has most of the bits and pieces I need to complete the set. My question to the S/O experts is what's the era that this box was manufactured? Also...

http://delaware.craigslist.org/tls/4151144327.html I'm pretty sure it's illegal to sell prescription drugs of any kind. If this is a real ad she might get some silver bracelets before the weekend is over. Sorry, but it was listed under CL tools in DE and I guess us guys could make a good...

I got this cabinet a few months back, and was planning on using it for storing welding supplies. I have since decided to use it to store my knife collection instead. I have mostly Italian style stilettos/leverlocks, so I would keep them stored in the open position. My question is what would...

Picked them up at a sale today. I can read "Germany" on it, but not the maker. It looks like the first letter is the letter "M". Nothing stamped on the steel:dunno:? I can say they work really good.

The vise does have a small chip out under the one jaw as seen in the pic. This does not effect it's operation at all. I fully took it apart, gave it a molasses bath along with a good cleaning followed by a long session with several different wire wheels before primer and paint in the obvious...

I bought this diamond in the rough a few months back to restore and keep. Today was the day that I decided to do a three minute tear down to hit a roadblock on the dynamic jaw. I got the allen heads out without a problem, but couldn't seem to pry the jaw loose. The static jaw come off fairly...

Pic *****, but it looks like a good deal at $35. I'll be in the area at the end of October, but highly doubt it will last the weekend.

BOTH UNITS ARE SOLD!!!I have two I'm looking to get rid of. They both work as they should including the light. One has a rare option which is a braking system which works. The other one has the knife sharpening piece which is not for sale, and I believe one of the glasses is cracked in one of...

It's definitely a really cool looking box. I might go take a look at it on Sunday. It's filled with tools as well. Might be some decent old stuff inside.

I know restoring vises is pretty much the norm around here thought I'd show you my Simplex I picked up a couple of weeks ago. Got it for $6 at a yard sale. Probably going to sell it, but we will see. I still have to grind down the anvil portion, but I left my polishing discs at my dad's...

Here's the link http://smd.craigslist.org/tls/4049884309.html Hard to see any numbers on it to verify, but I highly doubt it has 10" jaws (I'm assuming he is saying 10" jaws with a 10 1/2" opening:dunno:). The "new" paintjob looks like sh!t. Using the tote for scale and assuming it's the...

I picked this Edwards 55 series bell up yesterday at an auction and always wanted one for the garage to hook up to the phone or the door bell. I opened it up, but couldn't figure out how you hardwire it. Oh yeah, almost forgot, I'm Brian and I'm a ***** in the electrical department :lol_hitti.

I'm going to look at a Reed No. 107 tomorrow after work, but it has a problem with the lead screw. I'm going off of what the owner is saying, but he claims it has to be pulled open manually and can then be screwed shut just fine. Does this raise any concerns to the experts? I want a monster...

http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/tls/3997416296.html I know the big boys bring decent money, but this is just ridiculous. I have seen this thing for sale on CL (several different times) a few months ago with no price. I'm guessing he/she has been lurking on the site and feels the time is...

I am heading to a local auction next week and was wondering if anyone has any info on this particular grinder. Sorry for the crappy pic, but this is the only one they posted on the site. I'm wondering if any of you guys could tell me if it's a 110V or 220V unit (don't think it's a 3 phase...

I am either missing something in regards to operating the vise or it's frozen shut (but still turning???:dunno:). The orange cap/button on top must be some sort of quick release, but when I press it and turn the handle it does not back out. When I first got the vise it was halfway open and the...

http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/tls/3956855132.html Wilson Vice $60.........GJ translation = cheap *** wilton vise for sale. I'll be up in the area tomorrow if anyone wants me to grab it.

I got this at an auction on Saturday, and decided to attempt to tear it down and give a molasses bath. I am having two problems with taking it apart. The first is how the hell do you get the lead screw removed from the dynamic jaw? It has some sort of lock washer inside with teeth. Looks...

I was wondering if you guys have any info on these units? I am heading to an auction this Saturday and they have one going on the block. I'm wondering if the unit is single or three phase? If so what's the cutting specs on the unit? Couldn't find out too much on the world wide web. Got my...

I just bought one off of ebay last night. I have a "thing" for body hammers and often buy them at flea markets and yard sales whenever I come across them. I'm definitely familiar with Blackhawk tools, but was wondering if they had sold a lot of tools targeted for the autobody industry. This...
