Evapo rust used to be sold everywhere. Just tried my local Ace, Blowes, and Home Despot with no luck. Grainger doesn't even have it, Mcmaster is a mystery as usual. It's available other places online, but it's odd it's not at local stores anyomore. Big push by Rustoleum or other competitor...

Found this in an old irrigation canal in an area by a creek where the city used to get it's water until the 1980's. Looks to be water tight and fairly old. The rod is contiguous through the barrel. It has a partition inside it from what I could see. Some kind of adjustable floating valve to...

There's many vids on this issue.. about 90% of them total garbage. - Duct, vent, screen are totally clean - I cleaned off the moisture sensor in the tub - Unplugged it for a long while - I pulled the heater element and associated sensors and checked for continuity.. all checked ok. It...

Saw theses at the re store... never seen such an old example of a digital caliper...

Saw this on the webs. Anyone recognize it? Advertised as machinist chest, mostly oak and has an IAM sticker on it to lends credence to it being machinist related.

Couldn't pass this odd ball up.

6 bucks. The Perfect Handle was rough but cleaned up well. And a scroungers first... I actually needed a new 3/8 ratchet lol.

There's been lots of threads of individual used tool scores/finds/purchases , and they tend to just fade away. How about one ongoing thread?

These wrenches **** so bad... specifically the open end. ANY wrench from HF is better. I was intrigued and let it get the better of me... they are a JOKE.

Anyone have a rec on a good compact magnetic angle finder? I have an igaging Angle Cube and it's a total pos. I generally have good luck with the MIC digital stuff, but this thing is utterly useless... not even good enough for gov't work.

My son and I grabbed this at the restore. I'm guessing some kind of alarm.. noise maker. The motor and spinning eccentric work, but it doesn't make contact with the aluminum cover and doesn't look like it ever has, so must be missing something that fits on/over the eccentric. Any guesses/info...

Found these at the local building materials reuse place... stuff I don't need at prices I cant resist. I picked up one and saw 'church' and 'LDS', kinda got a kick out of it.. pawed around and found two more. Got these and some decent chunks of walnut for 3 bucks. They will go into my heathen...

Have a Marley UH-524TAC ceiling (or wall) mount heater. Last couple days the contactor has really started making a prolonged racket trying to start. Anything to be done with this besides replace the contactor unit? On my drill press I was able to 'clean up' the contactors, but this unit looks...

Saw this today.. pretty cool. Mute it and skip towards end to see it in action.

Says 'Diamond Edge'. Leather work?
