    Louisville slugger union 76 tire thumper

    Picked this up at the local flea market today. What a conversation piece it was! I mainly thought it was cool due to the 76 marking in it and the fact that I worked at a 76 station back in high school. We were the last full service gas station in town! It does have some condition issues due to...

    Icon hutch on Masterforce box

    Just received my ICON hutch and stainless top today. If I didn't have the side locker on the Masterforce 72 inch it would have dropped right on. I had to clearance the side against the locker due to the bracket for the locker. Turned out very nice and I think I will enjoy the new addition. Also...

    Vise rarity...Halls patent vs Stephens patent

    Just left the local flea market a bit ago. Ran into a guy who wanted to buy my Halls patent Parker no98 vise last fall. He asked if I still had it, which I do, as I have no intentions of parting ways with it at the moment. He says "My buddy has one thats worth more than yours!" OK fine. He shows...

    Craftsman speed ratchet

    So back in November I joined the Ohio tool collectors association. Met up with a local vise collector and we displayed out Halls patent vises. I was excited to see it featured on the front cover of the little magazine they send out! Thought I'd share! Joel

    Ratchet collection

    Just thought I'd post a pic of the wife's ratchet collection. She started about 5 or 6 years ago when she found a real early SK 45170 3/8 drive at a flea market for 25 cents. Then whenever we we go to a flea market or sale if we found cheap old ratchets we would pick them up. It's a relatively...
