Those cabinets have a great look! and LUGZ - the barristers are nice! I love storage, esp. with glass fronts for display!

the deal is OK... but since you don't have an immediate need, I would wait and watch for a used one through a garage sale, craigslist, etc. The resale on these is awful. That $45 item normally sells for under $10 at a yard sale and they seem to be pretty readily available as a lot of people...

Sadly I cannot arrange to pick these up... $30 in Ownings MD - I am posting here and hoping someone can get them. Blackhawk tool boards $30 - Owings MD https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/571375080067872/

The Eiffels were an early gimmick tool and came with a variety of interchangeable jaws. They were made from the 1920s through the 1970s. There is bound to be a thread on them here at GJ

LesserSon.. love the Eifel Plierench... the month and year of manufacture is often stamped on them

One more... If you ever find yourself in Hyannis / Cape Cod - look up the used tool store. Older (than me even) fellow runs it and he has a number of small clusters of old tools in there at very reasonable prices. I am not sure how many more years the gentleman who runs it has in him, but it...

took Mrs Duddly for a drive through New England for our 40th anniversary and picked up a bunch of small items along the way. It seemed like everything was $2 - Here are a couple fun ones. pic 1 - group shot notice the weird brace like thing(s) - 1st is a hill pump wrench (...

It is an old spinning reel - it shows up on fishing sites. Does it have the piece to attach to a spinning rod on the other side? picture attached (hopefully) EDIT: edit for my brain fart... it is an old fly fishing reel... not sure why I said spinning reel.

Lugz, awesome display cabinet! Try using a little original GoJo hand cleaner on a rag. Try it on a small spot first, but I have found the results to be a amazing on finishes you only want to clean.

Nice wrench .. looks like you had a good day! AA has some info http://alloy-artifacts.org/other-makers.html#boos Here is the 1941 patent information on that BOOS wrench http://www.datamp.org/patents/displayPatent.php?pn=D130015&id=34712

Saw a Japanese copy of a Starrett 443 socket set at an estate sale. At 125 it was too much. Maybe tomorrow. I checked VERY carefully and there were no markings other than metric socket size. The quality seemed a notch below Starrett as well. But it was a nearly exact copy.

pic 1 - yes it does. The rip fence also serves a a fence in shaper mode... and I am learning to pack it away better. Still looking for a more complete manual on the web. pic 2 - $3 group - some barcalo wrenches and a pressed steel set of LODI pliers with the 1894 and updated 1900 patents pic...

Sometimes you just have to buy it and research it later.... Picked up a PortaShop set for $15 today. It had been stored somewhere that it picked up a bit of surface mold {yuck} but it cleaned right up. This thing is the size of a sewing machine case and can be used as a table saw, router...

Found this kind of stubby Stanley sweetheart screwdriver and HAD to have it. It is hard to get scale but it is around 9 inches. Paid too much.

continued.. 1 - paid $3 for a SK toolbox with a ratty handle in pretty good shape (no rust). When I asked the vendor said not for sale, that's just trash. Some of my small items like the vaseline jar and the fuses were inside. 2 - the decal is pretty far gone, but you can just read SK 3...

over memorial day weekend I ventured north.. Sat = Jakes and Quakertown. Sun = Golden Gate and New Egypt. The theme for the weekend was "Dollar Table" 1 - an early Ideal electrical tool, a bare Plierrench, an interesting Trimo configuration. Robinson patent wrench, Charles E Hall bicycle...

Actually, it's a button hook from when shoes had buttons!

If anybody gets by Jake's or Quakertown today, keep an eye out for an older fellow with a 'y'all need Jesus' shirt'... and say hi to Duddly and Mrs Duddly.. driving up from DC area so won't be there till 10am or so... It's been a slow year for me and here it is almost half over... the rest of...

$40 for the ryobi at HD that works with your phone. regular price but a decent deal...

Those are collectible... most folks don't still have them in the attic, and the tools are missing if they do. Nostalgia sells!
