CRguy, The plane is not mine to sell, and I doubt my friend would sell it. tom I wish he would sell it to me....

This is not mine, but I thought it was pretty unusual. Bought by a friend at the local dirt market for $15. It is about 6 inches long. Tom

With the advertising in the lid, I think it is a salesman's sample kit. Tom

Several weeks ago I found this 3/4 inch S-K set at an estate sale. The sale was about 30 minutes from my house and didn't have pictures of any tools. I went anyway and wandered out to the outbuilding garage and began to dig around. I noticed a box of older hard hats and picked it up to get a...

Bluebolt, The ratchet lube was thrown in the box as I was leaving. It has no markings and appears to be a dark gray (graphite?) thin grease. You can see it in the attached (really bad) picture. It seems to work fine. That is all I know :headscrat. Tom

Thanks everyone! (My first YS!) :) Netbrad, the tool for holding the little ball wasn't included. The only tools I got were about 15 non-working ratchets she had laying around (two were 3/8 RHFTs), and a bottle of ratchet lube. I made myself a tool to hold the ball in a while back, works OK...

Outlaw, Yep, but I couldn't do it. Beside the fact I would have felt as if I was stealing, this lady has been taken advantage of by Sears. Still can't believe how they treated these Home Store owners. REMEMBER Always ask, it just might be the right time for you. In this case, it was for...

Second week of 2019. Spent $4. An American made Allen ratchet.(Didn't work, thought I would try one of the Craftsman kits because of the similarity. Only lubed it, now it works). And an Excelite 99 driver handle. I have probably 30 of these bits to fit this handle. Tom

Thought I would show a few of my finds in the deep south since the first of the year. Most everyone is aware that many of the Sears home stores are going out of business. The one closest to me had been advertising a clearance sale for about a month. This particular store had been at this...

Boofer, When I saw the Mac boxes I thought "Wow,I like those, that is a great deal. He is really lucky"..... then you got a lot luckier. Great deal, Great story! Tom

American Bosch. It is a guy wearing driving goggles in front of a stylized AB. Tom

WNYflyer, What size is the amber handled speeder? Tom

3bay, I wonder how unfinished Craftsman wrenches that I assume were made by Moore Drop Forge end up in Buffalo. That is strange.....:confused: Tom Saw your other post Never mind...

Rian, Good to see you back, I have missed your posts. Can you tell me how old the MLJ 552 license plate is? I think I may have a set of those I got out of an old garage years ago. Thank you in advance for any help. Tom

pops That could be useful for truing wire wheels (such as on a bicycle or motorcycle). Tom

3bay, Aren't those banded sockets the ones that came with the stainless and lifetime ratchets? Tom
