First off let me start by saying I hate selling my tools, lol... Have a fairly good size collection of Craftsman general mechanics tools mostly 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 socket sets both SAE and metric and various wrench sets that I purchased back in the early 1980s. I have since replaced nearly...

DONE Have a nice 20" WT drill press about 95% restored. Have period correct 3PH motor but not correct foot pattern as well as 1PH motor. I believe I purchased all parts necessary to make complete. Motor needs to be mounted and possible 3P to 1P conversion. Table lift working correctly. LMK...

Bought a small lathe a while back that came with some tooling. There are a bunch of small metal dowels probably 1-2" long and 1/4" to 1/2" thick. What are these used for? Best I can figure is indexing. Thanks. Chris G

Done

THIS IS SOLD Have a Craftsman/Atlas 6x18 metal working lathe. Going to post up on ebay but thought I'd see if there is any interest here first. Bought it about a year ago with plans to restore it but it's been sitting on the back burner. Any interest let me know. I'm thinking about $500...

Gasp! Yeah, I'm a tool junkie no doubt. Been collecting my whole life. So when is it OK to start paring down the collection? As an example, my wife blew out a front tire on her car the other day so I ordered two new tires from TireRack and bought the rims to local guy (who does a wonderful...

Just happened upon a local Craig's List ad for this Wilton. It was posted about 20 minutes before I saw it. Picked it up this afternoon. Guy said he was getting non-stop texts. 4" with swivel base. Marked Chicago USA. No cracks/welds in castings that I can see. Turns smoothly throughout...

THIS IS SOLD. This is a feeler have no idea what it might be worth but open to reasonable offers... Picked up a really nice Cincinatti Tray Top that I had intended to restore but haven't gotten around to it yet and unfortunately need to get it out of my garage. Very nice piece of machinery...

Grandpa passed in September. Helping grandma take down Christmas decorations and came across an old Craftsman BE ratchet. Never saw one like this before. Anybody know anything about it? Sorry will post pics when I get home but looks like this https://goo.gl/images/qHuQjR

I've got about 2000 linear feet of heavy duty single slotted shelf standard wall bracket removed from a project. It's gloss white heavy steel. About 1/3 is 7' lengths and 2/3 is 4-5' lengths. There are a few pieces that are 2' OAL. Would be great for garage shelving. $0.50 per foot plus...

Doing a bamboo T&G floor. Been reading that 18 GA L-cleats are better than standard 16 GA for bamboo. I wanted to buy a Bostitch gun but apparently they only make 16 GA nailers. A few companies apparently make them in 18 GA: Powernail Freeman Estwing I'm sure there are others. Anybody have...

Found this yesterday. SF-420 5/8 double square. Any idea how old it might be? Looked in several catalogs from 1930s, 40s and 50s but couldn't find it.

Anybody know anything about this company? Pulled out one of these in some screwdrivers I was going through yesterday: Seems very well made, very comfortable handle and had a strong, positive grip on the screws I was taking out. Surprised to find out it is made in China. Thought they might...

Hey guys been out of work. Put up some nice tools on eBay. Appreciate if you would check them out http://stores.ebay.com/cgruttstoolsandmore. Thanks. Chris G

Seems like I'm going through band saw blades like toilet paper, LOL. I'm only running a few boards through new blades before things seem to go south. How long do they normally last? Table saw blades seem to last much longer. Is this normal? Maybe I don't have them set up right? Any help...

Need to order some repair kits for two ratchets VRP15 and MR6. Any help appreciated. Thank you!

Never seen this before anybody know what it is used for? Apparently no longer in Snap On's inventory.

Have a bunch of broken Snap On that I've picked up with other stuff along the way. Bunch of ratchets, some sockets, hammers, etc. Any value to this stuff as it can likely be replaced by a Snap On dealer at no charge (I don't have a Snap On dealer or would do it myself). Most of the ratchets...

Was out clearing the driveway off and my son left the garage door open. Had a box full of misc. machine tooling (cutters, reamers, dowels, drill bits, spacers, etc. in an open drawer near the door. Needless to say they were covereded in snow... So I actually rinsed everything off (not sure if...
