Picked up this beauty a few days ago, and intend to use it with wire wheels. I will be using it mainly for general crud removal and parts clean up. After looking around for new wheels, I realize that I could use some help. I would like to use a 6" or 7" straight wire wheel, but I would...

Picked up these two boxes today at local flea shop today for $5 total. Both were full of miscellaneous STUFF, of which I don't need anymore. Basically I bought them for a Williams pin spanner in one, and a couple auger bits in the other. Boxes aren't much, one is Cman, and other is no name...

Picked up another Wilton vise today at a Garage sale, and I have a question for the Wilton experts. This Wilton is a 1945 4" swivel in good condition. PO said he had removed all the paint and cleaned it up and greased it. Said only thing I had to do was paint it. So being the sucker for...

Answered a CL posting for a "Big Grinder" today, and this is what I came home with. Had been looking for a Baldor grinder or buffer to put on a Baldor pedestal I had, and this one will work quite well. Grinder is a 1hp, 1800rpm, 1ph, 120/230v 10in machine. Came with 1 10x1 wheel. Missing...

Picked up these miniature oilcans at a flea shop today and wondering if anyone knows anything about the two smaller ones. Flat one is marked Made in USA, and Pflueger (I believe). When you remove the cap, it has a pin that goes in the oil spout to keep it unclogged. Round one is a little...

Evening all, Picked this up this afternoon, and need to find some info on it. Anyone know if the manuals will be available on line? Or where to look for them? Was told that it is a model "K1279", but M/N on machine says AC/DC 225/125. Guess that's the same???? Anyway to find the year...

add from album Well this makes sense now. Will try to do better. :lol:

Hello All, Been hanging around for a while, watching and learning, speaking to a few of ya, asking a few questions and just hanging out. Till now I haven't posted any pictures of my place so I thought I would invite you over to the "Sheep Shed Shop" for a look at where I hang out most times...

Picked this one up recently because I hadn't seen one like it before. It is stamped with Howard Iron works Buff. NY on one side, and somthing I cant yet make out on the other. Can anyone tell me anything about it? Haven't had a chance to clean it up yet, but looks to be in usable shape for...

CL find here, and wondering if anyone can tell me anything about this grinder. Can't seem to find anything on line. Looking for info/parts manual for this flex shaft tool. (Model JN-40 I believe) As found with a 6" wire wheel on the shaft, but looks kinda hokey to me. Anyone ever use one of...

Evening all, CL pick up today on this vise and seeking a little info. This is a 6in vise which I believe to be made by Wilton. Cheesy stick on Wilton label is only ID I can find to confirm this. Date stamp on bottom is 2 - 88 which, I believe, should mean the vise was manufactured in...

Picked up this little drill index at a local auction today and was wondering is anyone can tell me anything about it? Looks like cast metal of some kind with brass band's around the out side. These bands are inscribed with the drill size fractions, but need to be cleaned up to see. Any...

Picked this little Anvil up at the local flee pit and was hoping for some help identifying it. Has some markings on the side, but I can't quite make out much. ???KLYN, and 58 is about all I can make out. Other letters there, but I would probably just be guessing at this point. Hope someone...

Picked up an 8ft work bench at an auction some years ago, and it had 2 Pexto (I believe) anvil stake plates in it. Only had one stake with it. I said at the time, if I ever found a set of stakes I could afford I would buy them. Well I finally found a set at a local auction! :rocker: Set...

Called about a listing on CL for a Vulcan anvil. Gentleman said come take a look, and I may have some other things of interest. When I arrived I found the advertised small Vulcan anvil to be in near perfect shape. Weighing in at just 48#. Had been looking for a small anvil to use on a bench...

Thought you might like to see my new toys for the barn. :) Needed a new drill press, and this is what I came up with! :bounce: Canedy-Otto "Royal" 6" DP, from around mid 40's I think. Needs a little clean up, but should be nice when done. It also came with it's own "Fan". :thumbup: Also...

Need to pull new wire for Quincy 325. Motor is 5hp, 3ph drawing 15.2a, and is approx 60 feet from source. Will #10 stranded copper work, or should I go to #8 for a compressor at this distance? Need to purchase wire. Thanks.

Hello All, Been lurking & learning for a while, and had this Quincy follow me home yesterday. :thumbup: Have a couple questions I know you guys will have the answer to. First, I am pretty sure that this is a Quincy, but can not find any markings on the thing to prove it. Where should I be...
