Some thrift store finds. Pony C clamp. No name pipe wrench. And these sockets. No markings other than size 9/32 thru 5/8. Never seen hex drive sockets before. Any ideas?

6010. Pipe clamp. Vise clamps. Wedge. BFH.

Me too. Just picked one of these up last weekend. Couldn't pass it up for $68.

Nice find on that Kennedy machinist box! Picked up these tho other day. Had to look up the SO part number to realize it was a battery terminal puller. Never used one before, but will definitely from now on. The pitman arm puller is a Bonney.

Nice box!

Went to a used tool store that was unfortunately going out of business. Picked these up for $25 S-K 3/8 drive sockets in the front. Craftsman 3/8 drive and one 1/2 in rear A stud finder made by Irwin, Stanley T bevel and Vlchek chisel. And a nice pipe clamp. No marking other than Made in USA.

Just go for the lightest one. Using a 9" grinder for more than 5 min is a measure of strength. Will you chamfer these beams on a saw horse or in position? BTW I primarily use a DeWalt 9"

I buys em as I needs em. Probably haven't bought enough, but make due cause I don't make enough.

Nice! I was just using a weed burner today to melt some of this snow off some 1" plate. Plate was so cold that it took a while to fully melt the ice off.

Yeah I guess I missed that one posting at a time thing. But if only a recipient can post the next item, and the aim is helping out those just building/upgrading their tools, wpuldnt the items offered up get progressively worse in quality and eventually stop?

Hmm.. I thought I was reading the "Rules" on the official PIF thread. Didn't see anything about min post count of 250 to participate. I posted something up already. Guess I'm beat. Or I could go on a "cool" comment rampage. :rocker:

Air compressor.

Yeah this method is kind of flawed, only in the fact that someone could just cruise this thread and score deals for the cost of shipping. I could make a business out of this if I didn't have a job. Maybe a Trade Only thread would be best. A trader could post what they have and assign monetary...

Actually got this for free the other day. Was just rotting away in a barn.. Snap On CJ86-1 Started cleaning up the one set of jaws, mostly just dirt and light rust. Missing some hardware but that's easily replaced.

Pretty much any 110 machine you use you're just gonna glob it on and grind it smooth. Definitely get a gas machine though. For thicker stuff I prefer to run dual shield FCAW, less spatter than MIG.

Awesome score on that pipe cutter!

Thanks Jakemac and Outlaw. Should clean up nicely..

Fibremetal Pipeliner hood is made in the USA. I love mine. Not a flip front but they make aftermarket kits that you can install to make it one. Though I hear it messes up the balance of the hood. Also, ditch the headgear it comes with install some Jackson 370 headgear. Helps the hood stay up...

Picked these up at the local thrift store for $15. 3/4 thru 1" SnapOn combo. Also came with a US made Craftsman 15/16 combo. Anyone know a good way to remove some of the surface rust without scuffing up the chrome? I guess I could take scotchbrite to it then re-polish.
