    Interesting Ratchet - W. E. Clovis Garage

    I spotted and snagged this rat off the Bay last week. W. E. Clovis Garage of St. Marys, WV. W. E. Clovis began selling and repairing Fords in the area in 1914 and in 1919-1920, formally built a huge facility known as the W. E. Clovis Garage as HQ for his business. He obviously had some sort...

    Spending a lot of time in the shop these days and I've been running across many tools that I have picked up over the years simply because they "crossed a line" in my mind. That's what this thread is for. Show your unmarked/unknown origin tools. Show your "didn't know they did that" tools.

    Selling a Quality Item on CL

    Looking for some experienced advice. As many of you know, I collect older tools. In keeping with that activity, I like the boxes in my shop to be vintage as well. I picked up this box because it was cheap, and it has served me well. However, I have multiple stacks from the 1930's-1960's that...

    Suggestion to MODERATORS

    This has likely been brought up, discussed, and declined for whatever reason, but I for one would very much like to see the vintage area broken up into "Vintage Machinery" and "Vintage Hand Tools & Accessories." Thoughts?

    Blackhawk Grail

    Well, since I'm here at the sale, and first in line for tools, I'll post what I'm snagging today. I've never seen one of these and have been waiting for 2 weeks for this sale. Unfortunately, some @#$&+&$ (insert your own derogatory) recently paid $450 on eBay for a nugget set and the estate...

    Looking for Critique - Old Wooden Toolbox

    I bought this from eBay because of the Bonney tag. I'd love to hear some opinions on its date of construction. Personally, I'd date it to around 1910 based on the tag, assuming it's original. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Machinery & Equipment Catalogs Folks, Yesterday I began inventory operations on my catalog hoard. For the vast majority of the catalogs, I have no use for them. That said, if anybody out there has relevant equipment, I want them to find a needed/wanted home. So, they are yours for...
