Yea... well I first came across this thread a couple of years ago and I bought a couple of old fans. I kept me and my son busy on days where weather didn't permit us going out to work on our projects in the garage. Long story short.... we are at 13 fans so far. :scared: Here are a couple of...

one of the pullers is OTC and the biggest socket in that last pic is a 2 1/8 Cornwell.

Finally got out to the garage today and took inventory of all the stuff that came with my new box. Along with several stacks of shop manuals, a Craftsman shop creeper, came all these tools pictured below. There are some Chinese stuff, Craftsman, Proto, SK, Husky, Cornwell, MIT, Mac, JH...

Thanks for the positive comments SK, fatfillup and the others. I plan to clean this box up and put it to use.

Well, I did it. I went over and brought it home. I really bought it because I needed more toolbox space and because of the functionality of the cart. I like that I can wheel it over to where I am working and use it as a work station. It is going to work just fine in my new shop/garage when we...

So I went to go check it out and the box is in pretty good shape. All the drawers work just fine. The casters roll ok and the brake works well too. There are Sap-On, Craftsman, Cornwell, Matco, OTC, and cheapie tools all mixed in there. The socket sets are Craftsman, the Big-o ratchets are...

I'm gonna go check it out later today. I asked the owner if all the tools in it are Snap-On and he said there are tools in every drawer and there are some Cornwell, Matco, and the like.

I know I have an addiction to anything car related especially tools and shop equipment. I saw this ad on CL and I want to jump at it! Am I right to think this is a great deal and worth way more than $695? Here is the description: snap-on tool box and tools - $695 This is a used " Snap-On "...

Merry Christmas from Deep South Texas! We are enjoying a typical 85 degree December weather. Had to take my '66 Bug out for a spin.

Yep... well just as I suspected. The guy wants $420 for everything. He had pretty much what you see in the pics above. He just spread them out across two tables. There were some nice old pieces but no sets and alot of rusted tools. The guy's way of thinking is the Stillson pipe wrenches are...

Thanks for the input and advice everyone. The seller asked me to come by and look at the tools today but, I have a feeling we are not going to agree on a deal. He just posted a new ad in CL asking $120 for the tools and Stack On tool box in the 2nd and 3rd pics of my initial post. [the ones on...

Yup another "What would you pay?" question. Actually just some input on the tools in the pics is what I'm looking for. I came across this CL garage sale ad where the owner mentioned he had alot of old tools. I missed the garage sale so as a long shot I sent this guy a text message asking if he...

Here is mine. I'll get a better pic tomorrow after I get me Beetle out in the sun for a while.

Cool desk lamp! I have one just like yours in my son's room. I thought it was cool and "retro" looking so I snagged it for $4 at a local antique shop. I was trying my hand at pin-striping and laid some lines on the lamp. I thought it came out kinda crappy but my son likes it so I left it alone.

My wife found this one for my home office a few months back. It was several shades of rattle can grey and the top was covered with some type of crusty adhesive. I had to strip it and give it a good coat of classic red to match my old desk lamp. The formica top cleaned up way better than I...

That brown cabinet is an old postage stamp/money box from a post office. The guy i bought it from told me his mom retired as a Postmaster in the early 80s and she had brought it home from work when he was a kid. It has a manufacturers date of 1947 stamped on the inside. I use it to store small...

I just picked this old post drill press at a local swap meet this afternoon. I don't know much about it but I plan to restore it and put it to work. I didn't find any markings other than these: PD 30 PD 30-1 PD 30-20-30-2 If anyone knows anything about it, I would appreciate it if you would...

I found these on CL for $60. Brand new! :)

here are some better pics
