(I hope this is the right place...) My old nose has never actually noticed the "stink" from the plastic handled screwdrivers/nutdrivers but I have certainly noticed the "white mold" - so I bought this little 1/4 set partially because of the amount of "white mold" - then I spent an enjoyable few...

Nice finds. Unfortunately I have little to no access to my tools at the moment and can't look for a metz. My house is rented out and we are living with my elderly mother. I live vicariously through Garage Journal these days. Welcome!

Anybody close to Northern Virginia may want to check out this sale. It's a collector/antique dealer who just can't resist buying in bulk and has occasional sales to thin things out. I highly recommend this guys sales. https://www.facebook.com/share/ojVxxX3heVmaiKGp/?mibextid=kL3p88

Just a reminder that the world's longest yardsale is coming up starting the first Thursday in August. That might be worth a bit of driving for you Speedracer..... doesn't look too far from you. https://www.127yardsale.com/

Hit a great sale today from a fellow downsizing a bit. Last day of sale but he would be open to tracking him down. My favorite part was I saw two young shoppers loving the stuff. Always great to see younger people interested in vintage tools. I told them about GJ and hope to see them here...

I am usually pretty happy with a cup of WaWa coffee... (not a guess!)

Myself and Mrs Duddly have been living with my mother for the last few months to help her with some health issues and my picking has been waaaay down. Yes, you heard that right! I am living the dream! 63 years old and living in my mother's basement! In the meantime, I have loved following...

Those are the best kind of items! The ones that carry memories. Please post them when you can.

Congratulations 3 Bay! Truly a life changing blessing.

Today's activities.... I am right where I should be.

I think I finally have come to grips with the fact that I will never own a proper rotobin, so I picked up this little tabletop version from an estate sale for $20. My mom had some medical issues and is deservedly taking up some of my time so I will try to get pics of some things I have grabbed...

(Mrs Duddly was not amused at another one) DC is a government town. At some point in the 60s(?) or so thousands of barrister bookcases went home with 'gummint' employees when they updated the offices. I physically could not pass this up. I need to sort out a few minor issues but the price...

Nice... but tell me about the isetta and the 600... I have a couple that I may want to get on the road. ( but don't tell my wife ) curious if you know of a resource or are one

First pickup of 2023 for Duddly! Spotted this last week on FBM and finally got the stars to align for pickup. A Mossberg No Socket set in a steel box (a first for me) and with the sticker on top in amazing condition! I have not found the original info but it looks like everything is there...

Nice set and a great start to the new year! I have been trying for a week or so to make a pickup happen. Here's to hoping today works out.

A couple things... #1 - what a great set of automotive books posted a few pages back! 2 - I may have a problem... I noticed a familiar looking socket set with stamped steel sockets in an estate sale ad and could not help myself from picking up my third Starrett socket set. (no i did not pay...

Wow! suckage 3Bay! A Dietzgen drafting table base. That can be used a number of ways - I would probably try to find a worthy top and make a small desk out of it.

Ha! I had to post but was/am still in transit. Me and Mrs Duddly are headed to the Lancaster area and I have long wanted to stop at Bootleg antiques in Columbia PA to see that booth. The booth was great, the shop is great, the building and town are great. His booth was not all woodworking...

Whaaaaaaaat? Very reasonable prices.

Private Lugnutz said: Are there any markings? HKP (of bolt cutter fame ) US HKP 1941 - odd that most of the ones marked this way had a "beak" of sorts Had a nice outing to the last Arlington Va Civitan Market for the year and picked up this North brothers Yankee Tool Set #100. It has a...
