Slim pikin's today. Rainy day so no flea markets here today. I went to a local trading post/used appliance store. I only scored a couple of saws, nothing to get too excited about. One is a Chinese, Lotus branded and one a Craftsman similar to one I just got the other day, but a different color...

I am going to build a new display board(s) for my hacksaw collection to go in the newly reorganized garage/man cave. I have a pretty big collection of Popular Mechanics and similar magazines dating back to the 30s. I WILL NOT cut up my magazines but will make copies of any ads for hacksaws that...

I think maybe a screw and a cap of some kind to retain spare blades in the frame tube. You reckon? If so it will be one of the few in my collection with extra blade storage space. Update... I found a picture of another saw like it on the 'net and the missing piece matches the handle so I...

I picked up three more ,so far, today. One is this small M. Klein & Sons. Something, including a threaded part is missing. Anybody got one like it? I'd like to know what's missing.

Well I have part of the 1/4" set in the lower left corner of the picture to go in it. Now to find the remaining parts! The $20 box will end up costing me a lot of money before this is over! Today the box will get a good cleaning.

I missed one... a Union Hdw Co, Torrington Conn USA I'll be going to another flea market tomorrow and two more on Saturday, plus my son and grandsons will probably hit a different one on Saturday. We'll see how many more saws I have by Monday!

I shouldn't have made the "posting Nazi" comment. I'm sorry. I found more saws today. From the top... large unmarked Challenge-USA Union 8 in Nicholson Greenlee No 300 - I like the colorful ones! The Schroeder Bros Mfg Co, Torrington Conn Consolidated Tool Works Inc, New York, USA #40 Great...

I found two ratchets at a flea market this morning. I don't know how vintage they are.

I bought this S&K tool box at a flea market this morning. It measures 22x10x10. I wonder what vintage it might be. I would like to restore it. Is the green wrinkle finish paint available anywhere?

Yeah, the brass one like Don's is my holy grail of hacksaws. Not saying I'd quit when I find one, but it would hang on the top pegs on my board! I'd like to find more of the "complicated" ones with a mechanism to tension the blade.

I added a few more.. From the top-a Great Neck 100 a Dunlop a Deluxe Frame Hack Saw a Miltex made in Western Germany an unmarked small saw Mr moderator feel free to lock this thread at any time if it gets to be a bore. Maybe too late?

I added a few to my collection today, including a couple of really vintage ones... from the top, they are E.CATKINS & CO IND'P'L'S IND USA "HOOSIER" The second one is marked only Made in Germany #3 is a Westline #4 is a # 16 Disston-Potter #5 is a Millers Falls Co # 1237 #6 is an Atkins #10 #7...

That's beautiful Don. A work of art, I think. And vintage NO doubt. The posting nazis won't be on you!

Yeah, careful what you search for on the 'net. At work during a break I decided to search for some tires for a Model T and entered the size, "30x3 1/2" and the warning popped up *********** **** SITE - ACCESS DENIED***.:yikes: Maybe I'm old and kinda behind the times but I have no idea what 30x3...

I had no intention to post something that did not belong or to offend by posting. I can keep my junk to myself rather than cause problems in the future. :o

Actually the bottom one is a Lenox.

Edited- Never mind, this tool is probably not vintage enough to be here. It is in a plastic case (broken). Sorry, the Cancel feature won't work and I can't delete the pics.

Doing some organizing in the garage, trying to be able to get two cars in my "two car" garage again, I am finding tools that I forgot I had. I realized today that I evidently collect hacksaws. Shown is probably half of my collection. I will continue to buy old, American made hacksaws. I usually...

I just picked up this partial 1/4" S&K set at the local flea market for a couple of bucks. I'd like to restore it and pick up the missing pieces to complete the set. Where can I buy paint that is a close match to the green on the box? Does anyone reproduce the name plates? Thanks.
