Need a new belt for my old Craftsman 100 drill press I'd like to get back into service. I'd prefer to get one solid belt, and not the link-belt type of belt that is sold at Harbor Freight. Anyone know of a source for the correct style and size for my drill press?

Beautiful day for a garage sale, but there were none I could find. Flea market was still open though... Set of Proto combination wrenches, from 3/8 to 1-inch, only one missing was the 5/8 which was a Craftsman. $20 for the lot. Bonney 1/2-drive ratchet, Amalite large Phillips screwdriver...

I gathered up the ones I have at home and in the garage, turns out I have 38 ratchets here. I have about 25 at work, so maybe 63 or so. Pictured: 3 ea Armstrong: 1 x 1/2-drive, 1 x 3/8-drive, and 1 x 1/4-drive 12 ea Craftsman: 4 x 1/2-drive, 6 x 3/8-drive, 1 x 3/8-drive stubby, and 1 x...

The quality of both brands are very good. And I wouldn't worry too much about investment if they break or wear out - I get Craftsman screwdrivers for 50 cents all day long at the flea markets. Almost not worth my time to drive to Sears to replace a broken one, I get replacement used ones at...

Bump.

I have about 20 at my shop, about 30 or so wandering around the garage and house here. Some of the ones here are just "for the collection" and I don't really use them. Total of about 50 or so. I know, it's an addiction, but there are worse things to collect.

The overwhelming majority of the tools I have at work are newer tools, but for my own personal garage and workshop, pretty much all I use are 1940s through 1960s tools. One day I wanna complete my own hot rod-themed garage, and I want the tools to match what I feel is the golden age of hot...

Almost here! Can't wait!

Only had time to hit one flea market this Sunday, I managed to snag a couple things: Pic 1: $6 for everything large metal ashtray marked "Commutator Foundry Co., Mpls, MN" Swingline stapler chisel made by someone who welded a piece of rebar for a handle onto the chisel end (!!!) Pic 2: all for...

I believe those hand mattoxes were only made during WWII.

Yeah, I had problems with uploading pics as well, once I resized there wasn't any problem. I guess whatever program the site's host uses to automatically resize pictures is having problems, and now is kicking back anything too big to handle. I use this online service, it saves a lot of time...

Mild pickings today at the garage sales... Pic 1 - Craftsman chisel, 2 S-K flare wrenches, Starret metal tape measure, water valve, Klein belt hanger, 2 other wrenches and some odds and ends, all for $5 Pic 2-3 - My first ray gun, a nice 3/8 inch drill, made by Ram Tool Corp., model F-4...

Not mine, but you have to admire the collection!

I'm not one to really talk, since my tool "collection" of old vintage tools is dumped into a bunch of plastic totes with 10W30 sprayed all over them to prevent rust, then crammed into a corner awaiting my dream shop. I did find this idea while searching through Google images, guy got a handful...

Nothing fantastic, but got this almost NOS vintage Powr-Kraft small toolbox last week from a friend. It's barely been used, if it wasn't for a couple small rust spots from storage on the top, it would be perfect. Missing the tray, oh well.

Yes, with my meaty left hand on the handle, the crank handle clears my hand with about an inch to spare. I plan to clean it up and restore it as best I can, as well as continue the search for the original maker. Will post info as I receive it, so far the internet hasn't been much help in the...
