Nice score NYBM. Look at the lower right front corner of the tool cabinet. I believe the manufacture date will be stamped there.

Don't know what the W stands for. I can't recall seeing that on any of my Craftsman rollers. As far as I know that box was definitely made by Waterloo.

Wow. I hardly ever find body tools and when I do it is one or two at a time with months or years in between. That is a great haul!
Yeah he's a retired body man. He also had a nice Snap On stack that he bought new in the late 60's that was FILLED with Snap On, SK, Mac, Cman, etc. Doubles and triples of just about every mechanics hand tool you could imagine. I just didn't have the $4k to lay down on it. It was worth every penny though.

I am not 100% sure what FPU stands for. I know these were branded several ways, usually just a sticker, Bison or Fowler. If you search FPU vise on garage journal you will get quite a few results.

I saw! It's a popular line of vises. Sort of an obscure GJ fave. GJ member mali provide the breakout for FPU but not the English translation. Saw one other HI-TEST, no decal though. I posted more photos in the Vise Thread.

Today is the kind of day I am going to miss about the Rt. 70 Flea Market in Lakewood – which will sadly be a condominium complex this time next year. Nine out of ten times it’s a bust. I get nothing but exercise walking past tables and tables of used household stuff, video games, and junk. It’s the flea market all my pals at the other flea markets scoff at. But every once in a while I find some goodies.
Left to right in Pic 1:
- Saw sharpening vise. Unmarked. I may have to start a thread on this one. It has a ball swivel joint that I have never seen before, and I love the thumbscrew on the clamp.
- Lady’s foot pry bar (with a “U.S.” marking)
- Sixteen (16) 12-point sockets (including 31-, 23-, 21-, and 17-32nds) and six (6) 8-point sockets, all matching. Not branded. Just hyphenated sizes (e.g., 5-8) and MADE / IN / U.S.A. with a light band of parallel line knurling at the base. I am thinking Hinsdale. But I don’t know. Gotta go look at some pics. (See Pic 2)
- Under those is a 1/2-inch drive piece I can’t ID. At first I thought it was some kind of adaptor with four "flutes", meant to possibly turn some kind of cross-recess fastener, but the four flutes are fairly thick, fairly far apart and meet in a smooth but fat apex. The only other thing I can think of is looking at it the other way around. That it's a piece of some kind of ratcheting handle and that fluted thing is essentially a gear. (See Pic 2)
- The book is a 1942 Compton’s WAR VOLUME Pictured Encyclopedia. It has some really interesting maps, photographs, and drawings, and some unusual content (Code tables!), and because it was printed before the war was over, and before 1944 (when the most likely outcome was starting to emerge), it has an interesting perspective you don’t often see in anything except month by month newspaper accounts.
- The lighter – a risqué “B and D” LIGHT-O-MATIC – is the jewel of the lot. I have seen these or similar with ‘Occupied Japan’ markings. It is going into the tote tray inside my latest GMTK, right next to the Pocket Bible (for balance).
(See Pic 3)
- The burlappy-looking thing on the far right is a “Guaranteed Scotch Flax” water bag. It has a tin spout sewn up tight at the left top with a cork stopper in it. I have to do some research on this and I can't wait to try it. I have never seen one. WWII canvas water buckets, yes. A scotch flax bag, no! (See Pic 4)

Here's my haul from an estate sale I just left from. I hate when an ad says No Early Birds, you get there 10 minutes early and there's a million people there already, but what can you do. Two women were absolutly pillaging through all the loose tools which were $1 a pound
yet everyone was walking right past the Snap On box. When a woman saw it in my hand she asked hastily, "where did you get that?" I said right there where she had just looked. Sometimes being a savage doesn't pay. I grabbed that for $25 and didn't even try to bargain. The King **** chain extractor was a $1 and the rest were all had for $6. Blue Point punch and chisels, Indestro, Kraueter, Pexto, Herbrand, Blue Point dykes and pliers etc, Bridgeport Sure Grip flat head screwdriver, some unknown Ashton England tool (probably a weed puller but I'll use it as a door panel type tool), and the NOS Walden Brake Flare Kit. I also grabbed a NOS USA made pitchfork and an old gold colored NY license plate for a $1 each. Not too bad. Will need to do research on the SO box.

NYBODYMAN, looks like you're having an awesome week. Nice scores.
I picked up a lot for $50 yesterday and will go back again today when I have more time.
NOS Kennedy 1022 cantilever box
SK ratchets and extensions
Snap On 1/4" ratchet and double box end wrenches
Older Craftsman ratcheting double box end wrenches
Machinist miscellaneous
Double barrel rubber band guns (for shooting the boy)
Also, in the lot I picked up two cast metal emblems that I can't identify. It has a lion and a Fleur De Lis on it. Also a part number on the back. Anybody have any ideas?

1Yesterdays estate sale, there were tools, but all kinds of collectibles, from beer cans to records, dime detective novels to ashtrays. I showed up a couple of hours after it started (had some plumbing to take care of) but still manage to find the good stuff:
Indestro socket driver, APEX impact stuff, MT1 bit, Vlchek SK and Proto extensions, Proto wrenches (one chevron), Proto LA feeler gauge, Craftsman Proto and Williams sockets, Brace bits, Mossberg bicycle wrench, Plomb cape chisel and a complete barely used Action socket set. $15
Today, I hit one sale, kinda bleah and didn't get anything. Then I took a chance on an estate sale saying that it was the last day, everything had to go. Well, other than weirdly numbered streets, I had good luck!
Proto clutch driver, early Plomb Phillips drivers, two homemade baring scrapers, Bon-e-con combo, Plomb DBE, Proto LA DOE, and a pair of Williams combos. The odd-shaped thing on the side is Bell system C, and appears to be an early version of what became a can wrench, as this is also 9/16, one of the two sizes used throughout the Bell system for most general applications. The earliest can wrench I have is from the '50s, so it predates that.
(Forgot to put what I paid. $5)

As I mentioned to Dave, I posted that Bison-Bial S.A. made in Poland vise from yesterday in the Vise Thread, linked here. I also posted close-ups of the antique Sears, Roebuck & Co amps gauge, here.
And here’s that vintage cigarette lighter car light from yesterday. I love the little hanging hook.

Sorry no pics, I got everything packed up for Jake's Flea Market for tomorrow. Usually do Sundays but rain again this Sunday. Spent the morning in Freehold NJ at nice estate sale. Guy was a clock repairman. Had all sorts of machinery in the basement, lathes, drillpress, ... I managed to find a really nice 6 pc old-school Craftsman body set; two body hammers, two double-sided spoons and two dolly's. A gasket hole punch set made by Kreuter, a really nice Craftsman tap handle, a brand new in the box Indestro bright red two jaw puller and half dozen old red & black Craftsman carpenter pencils!

Lugz that light is cool! I have a couple "more modern" (late 50's - 60's? all plastic bodies) and on one I stuck an LED bulb in it...

Cool. I was thinking of starting an "Automotive Miscelannia or Odds and Ends" (or something like that) thread and starting it off with the lighter. I have that car heater from a few years ago and a few other things. And believe it or not, apparently the flax Water Bag I found today is automotive related. I found a good site that said in the 20's and 30's they were popular to carry on long trips in case you needed to refill the radiator. I have never heard of it or seen one before. ?? But I'm kind of busy so maybe a rainy day.

Those water bags were popular throughout the 1950s. You saw them hanging on bumper guards, especially in the mountains at altitude where water boils at a lower temperature. The water kept the outside of the bag wet and evaporation cooled the bag and the water inside.
Outlawmws
Well-known member
Really? We used to have one hung on the hood of a mid fifties woodie Pontiac wagon!
Of course that one also had a second radiator hung off the top of the front bumper so it didn't over heat on long climbs up steep hills (often towing a trailer). Several people told my dad it wouldn't work or help (of course it did...)
I have two of the flax bags: one used one in the garage and a NOS Coleman. Not sure I'd want to drank water out of one, but if you are desperate...
What is cool is they do soak water through (very slowly) and as it evaporates, it cools the water in the bag...

There were very few worthwhile looking sales in the area this weekend, but this one popped up close to home with the magic words “vintage tools” in the estate sale description. We arrived a little late but had to wait in line for a while. There was multiple dumpsters worth of junk but we found a few things to bring home. The Powr-Kraft torch set was missing the torch but the case and paperwork was nice. Outlaw has me picking up sliding square attachments so I grabbed these. The Starrett was for a 6” square but I’m not sure who made the other pieces. The little Snap-On ratchet was made in 1951. The weeder turned out not to be Plomb, unfortunately.

I have one of those water bags as well. I should hang it on the front of one of the Corvairs!

I found a small sale for us to check out on the way to the supermarket this morning. My wife spotted the tootsie roll Powr-Kraft ratchet and I picked up the Craftsman and Barcalo wrenches. The end cutter is a rusty Diamond.

Picked up my first Gerstner chest today, a model 042.
Love the patina. I believe it is oak. This should clean up nicely, I'm gonna keep it inside to store knicknacks so it will not lead a hard life.
P.O. thinks the box was new in '51 or '52, was his uncles.
No key, mirror cracked, otherwise all there. Got a Starrett 6" double square with it.

Nice box, I really like mine. They don't date them, the best you can do is use the label for a broad range. Unless their is some other dated materials with it or the owner's recollection.

I haven’t contributed in a while but today’s pic style sale I need to.
Moving sale, 40 year accumulation, garage, barn etc.
I was first one there, they were still packing out in the carport, just one table with tools.
So I started with buying a 1/2” Milwaukee drill and a PortaCable trimmer, $10 each.
I stuck those in truck so the guy could take me to the barn. While waiting, I spotted a like new Milwaukee 1/2” hammer drill, $20.
Off to the barn. This was built by the owner back in the 70’s, kinda gambrel shaped. It’s a flashlight hunt and the place is packed, but mainly just material stuff. There was two levels of “attic” above shop, so I had to check it out. Found a aluminum frame office chair. We had to get this down two sets of steep stairs, it’s not all that heavy on the ground, but......
Next is a repurposed something into a lazy Susan.
Picked up a couple of cast aluminum brackets.
Then I was going through a side room.
A box of heavy weight plastic bags.
And this CM box with a nice chunk of CM tools
Some miscellaneous things I found throughout the place.
So when going back up to get my truck to load up, this 1/2” deep cm socket set and 15” cm adjustable, $10 for both.
One last thing I found was this puller.
While looking through things, spotted these tanks in a recess that had a electric panel cover screwed over it, kinda strange.
Asked about them, guy didn’t even know they existed.
So, it was one of my longer picks, 2-1/2 hrs.
I had a blast looking around, talking with the family member trying to get it cleared out.
There was a CM table saw buried that they didn’t know about either.
I love the ones that you need a flashlight to find the treasures.

Great Stuff! I particularly liked CB's story! - My kind of dig!
I'll post pics tomorrow, but I picked up a couple of wood handled drivers, part of a spool of heavy linen thread fro Ireland, the lid to a #10 Griswold dutch oven, (the owner had had a shelf break and broke the pot...) and some replacement screen stock
Friday I got a LOTR "Sword of Aragorn"/Renaissance mock up sword from Freecycle, (these go for about 200 on amazon)
And today at a family gathering my sister gave me 3 single use bags of charcoal, a pack of Coleman Silk Lite mantles, and my son got a couple of pack frames, and a sleeping bag as well.

cb: Gotta love picks like that! I know that was a fun 2-1/2 hours for you and some nice finds!
Hit an estate sale yesterday where I came home with a Coleman funnel, horse hair workbench brush, an old straw broom with a appx 20" handle (maybe for sweeping the hearth ?) and two old tool catalogs - Starrett (1955) and Brown & Sharpe (1929). The exterior of the catalogs is in rough shape but inside the pages are still crisp and clear. The workbench brush is for my son-in-law.
After perusing the internet this morning I saw a garage sale less than 2 miles from me that had started on Sat. There was a single bad pic of an anvil. I thought it was likely some cheap Asian made POC. 2nd day of the sale but given it was so close I decided to drive over there about 11:30 (started at 8am). I see the anvil is still there when I drive up. I figure the guy must want an arm and a leg for it AND it's POC. I say offhand "I see you've still got the anvil". He says "yep" and proceeds to show me it's stamped 1915 and I can see the "Sweden" stamp as well. He's googling anvils to show me the crazy prices on the internet. Said it belonged to his grandfather in Oklahoma who was half native American. I ask what he wants for it and he's back on his phone trying to figure a price to give me. After 5 minutes he's still searching. I ask if I can make him an offer. I offered $2.50/lb. He said "let's load 'er up!". Really nice guy. He's 1/8 Native American and has his card from the Bureau of Indian Affairs. He's dealing with prostate cancer and just had surgery to remove it. Says his medical is free. There are limited hospitals and clinics he can use though. Anyway, I never expected to find my first REAL anvil less than 2 miles from the house. It joins the 8-1/2" anvil I found at an estate sale back in Aug.
Anyone know anything about this anvil? Under the horn, 1915 is stamped at the front right of the base and a bigger "3" stamped under the date. On the side it's stamped, 79 lbs and "Sweden" with something I can't read in a rectangle above the Sweden stamp. Any info is appreciated.
I need to search and see if GJ has an anvil thread. I'm sure they do.

Scored a blue aluminum B&D Workmate, some retro catalogs and a retro mustard yellow roughneck can at a $10 all you can carry estate clearance this am.
Have been wanting a workmate for a while, should be a handy little thing. Looks like a model 79-001
EDIT: it is a WM 625 Type E02

One of my better finds lately.....rolling KipperTools Military Issue General Mechanics Tool Kit. Chock full of SK full polish combo wrenches, 4 pcs SK flare nut line wrench set, SK socket kit(s) Crescent screwdrivers, Mayhew punches, and more! Not sure if this case was in Iraq or Afghanistan, but I can report it is sandy inside!

Pman, any patents or dates on those grips? The mechanics are a direct knock off of the sets I have from Channellock from the 70's
