    Manual iron shear/punch identification

    I pickup up this combination shear/punch yesterday at a sale where the new owner inherited the previous owner's hoard. I can't find any identifying marks on it and am curious if anyone recognizes it. It needs a little bit of work, but for what I paid for a pickup bed full of tools I'm fine...

    Alemite Overhead Lube station

    A couple of years ago I was at a farm auction and ended up owning this overhead lube station, which I believe to be Alemite. The only labels I can find are on the oil dispensing guns and they do say Alemite. It has an air reel, one for grease, and two oil dispensing reels. I'm not wanting to...

    Belt sander assumed 6x48, but 45"

    Picked this up at an estate sale for $20 and I assumed it to be 6x48", but running a flexible tape around the drums I come up with 45". There's not enough room to adjust it to 48" and I don't see any belt lengths available between 36" and 48" in a 6" width. Not sure what to think as I've only...

    Adding ground wire to existing URD

    I have an existing building that had 4/0, 4/0, 2/0 wire running from the power pole to the building in a trench when I bought the place in 2000. It had never been electrified, however. The wire is way overkill as the distance is only about 60'. I'm finally to the point of powering this...

    Air compressor identification

    Does anyone recognize this compressor pump and/or know the manufacturer or model series it might be in? It works fine, but it has a very minute oil leak that's making a mess out of the area around it. I'd like to rebuild it or at least re-seal it, but trying to find parts with nothing that...

    Collision repair advice

    Back in Oct-17 a woman who decided it was more important to send that text out than actually driving took a swipe at my '97 F250 that had not been in an accident since new. Now I'm finally getting around to repairing it. I got a complete cab in great shape for next to nothing to be a donor in...

    Ridgid 4x6 bandsaw assistance needed

    I picked up this Ridgid 4x6 bandsaw today for chump change, but the chump might just be me. The model # is 945-1458U. I've exhausted my Google-fu looking for info on it and it seems that everyone else with one has also. The problem with it is the worm gear has three broken teeth and I can't...

    Hydraulic press frame ID

    I bought this press frame last week for less than scrap value would be and can't find anything to ID what brand it would have been or the tonnage it was rated to. There's a sticker with nothing legible on it as well as USA which can be faintly seen in the top pieces of channel. I think that...

    Beverly Shears re-furb

    I bought these B2 Beverly Shears probably four years ago at an auction for the princely sum of $35. I couldn't believe that they didn't go higher and considered that a huge score. I really didn't know how much they go for new until I was looking this morning, and the same shears go for about...

    Yard light options

    The 70watt MH yard lamp we have on a pole between our house and barn took a hit from an electrical storm last week and needs replacement. I've swapped out the bulb and photocell and it still won't come on, so it's not economical to replace parts (I'm taking both the bulb and photocell back to...

    Columbian "Professional" vise

    I've never heard of a "Professional" series and they don't show up in Wilton's catalog, but I bought one yesterday. Anybody know what the difference is that makes it a "Professional"? Picture along with a comparison to the import Wilton it's replacing.

    What type of connector do I need?

    Background: The property my home is on had electrical service (not turned on though) on it when I bought it which was huge. I believe that the wire coming from the transformer into the main meter and panel (located on a power pole) was either 1/0 or 2/0 aluminum. I can't remember which. The...

    Garage sale finds

    Saw an ad on CL for a garage sale last Friday that had an ice fishing hut, which I'm looking for. Got there and was approached by a man telling me how much a radial arm saw was being sold for and I assumed he was the owner. He also told me about buying two Mac rollaways and upper cabinets...

    US General at Sears outlet

    Went into the Denver Sears outlet to pick up some anti-fatige mats and saw what I thought was a 72" tall RTA Gladiator Cabinet. Upon closer inspection I noticed a "US General" badge at the top left corner, just like the Harbor Fright toolboxes have. My crackberry was in the truck, otherwise I...
