    Need help with wood lathe ID

    I picked this lathe up a while back in trade and am just now getting to uncover it. Offhand I don't see any markings or stamping on any of the pieces, but the paint is in pretty rough shape. I figure the large circular retainers / locks used to hold the compound slide, tool holder, and...

    Neat Utica WWII NOS Curved Needle Nose Pliers

    I came across these recently and thought I would share. Two labels and boxes out of seven survived, with the rest being in varying condition. I've yet to remove the grease from any of them but I bet the condition is just about as good now as they were in 1942.

    Harbor Freight Series 2 44" Box Drawer Slides--Full Extension or Not?

    I recently sold my two red series 1 boxes to upgrade to the deeper series 2 model. They did not have them in stock during the Black Friday sale but I was allowed to purchase them on preorder / ship to store. These are blue but I would hope color wouldn't dictate features. Upon pickup, I asked...

    Any idea who made this power hacksaw?

    Trying to ID this power hacksaw I just picked up. Only have one picture at the moment; I'll get some additional angles / pictures later when I get back home. No manufacturer stamped on it that I can see. A few low digit part numbers that I need to grab and see if the web reveals anything, but...

    WTB: Wilton C3

    Have the itch for a slightly larger Wilton combination vise. I know they're heavy and pricey, and a pain to ship. I'm located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and willing to drive a bit for one, or pay a reasonable amount to ship one. I don't mind cosmetic issues but I'm looking for one in great...

    Jenga Garage

    Howdy y’all! I see a lot of references to members playing Tetris and Advanced Tetris in their garages / shops and that really rings true to me. I have a [relatively] small shop and am perpetually trying to fit ten gallons of **** into a five gallon bucket. The concept of moving one or more...

    Thoughts on this wrench? Craftsman 22 / DIN 894

    I came across the wrench recently and it appears to be a bit of an oddity. A DIN 894 / German made wrench, but also stamped Craftsman. I can't seem to find anything else like it on the web, so I'm assuming this came with a specific machine rather than in a Craftsman branded set. Any ideas?

    Help with lathe identification

    I'm hoping to pick up this lathe in the next week or two, but not sure what it is just yet. The gentleman says it's a 9" Atlas, but I know that's not the case. Parts of it look like a South Bend to me but I can't figure out which model it would be. It does look to be about a 9", unless my...

    Help with identifying Snap On ratchet

    I picked up (what appears to be) an older Snap On 3/4" drive ratchet this afternoon, but can't seem to make sense of it. It appears to be an L72 variant. There's no logo or part number on the head, but what looks to be a Snap On date code (1960) on the selector. Overall it's 32" long. The...

    Anybody have any insight as to the true origin of my "bomb table"?

    A while back I picked up a number of things from a gentleman who was cleaning out his storage facility. He had worked at a local automotive machine shop, later bought it, and eventually closed the doors. One of the tables they used for disassembly / assembly was this odd hexagonal top table...
