Sweet collections everyone!! Have boxes of Amerian made drills, but have never found an index other than Huots boxes.( I still buy them even if empty.) You all have posted some great indexes here!!

China can make GOOD tools, it is the importers here that want them as cheap as possible, hence they then sell cheaper stuff. Be interesting to ask chinese craftsman what they buy for good name brand tools there.

Nice find!!

Forgot to Mention you also have all the change gears! Great find!! Enjoy and make some chips.

What size/number of taper, #6 or #7 Mt ?

You did very well for $500.00. That milling attachment used, alone sells for around $250.00 Those lathes really hold their value, you'll always get your'e money back if you decide later on to upgrade to a larger one.

Love the wheels on that welding torch cart. Too skinny for outside in gravel, but real nice on concrete shop floor. Gotta be quite old?

I Believe Beach is gone from Smith falls. They made great tough boxes of all sizes. Too bad a great old Canadian company bought out awhile back by Stanley who pretty much ruined the great reputation Beach had built up over the years.

Gotta agree, the taiwan tools are just as good as N. American made. (They never used to be, but they cleaned up their act, and now have just as good a product at 1/2 the price.)

Great information guys, as i had wondered about the ones i have picked up also.

Gonna be HEAVY!! Lol

Up in this part of the country, that saw with the stand and motor would be sold instantly for $250.00 !! tHE RESALE ON THIS SAW IF EVER RESOLD IS very GOOD!

As posted a Fan will make a BIG difference in moving the warm air around. It doesn't take that big of fan either.

Great day Nine4!!

X2 on bypassing that lathe. Only reason i could see to purchase it for 25- 30 bucks is to part it out, make a bit to go towards a better bigger one.

Agreed, some great buys/finds!
