Nine...you **** big time for that Channellock set

 

[Waltrip88]

I missed the first day of this sale but the haul was pretty good.

Tap and die set $40 and $5 for snap on battery pliers x2, snap on vacuum hose pliers, snap on thermometer, and a homemade brass hammer.

Not pictured is a BNIB vintage eye shields for a grinder. I mounted them before I took this picture.

 

[Outlawmws]

Rick, Yes that is a Windshield tar/rubber cutter. and nice find on the Cleveland index. you should post that in the index thread. I think yours may be in nicer shape than nine.

 

[Outlawmws]

The made in Germany handle is the handle for a Two Cherries veneer saw.

CW, thanks for pointing that out. I went looking and dang, the "replaceable blade" costs near near as much as a new veneer saw! 10.98 vs 13.98...

No matter I'l use it for something.

 

[nine4gmc]

Nice scores Nine. Straight up parts store tool goodness right there! Sweet key chain & tape. You might have to put up some of that Blackhawk caution tape to keep us from drooling all over you finds!

Thanks 3Bay, you had a good weekend too it looks!

did someone say blackhawk

good finds nine
i know you dont need that blackhawk tape or keychain...neither do i, but if you put it aside for me you know i'll hook ya up somehow.

you already know who those were picked for

Nine...you **** big time for that Channellock set

Thanks Jeff, my first **** of the year!! I barely made it in January, I'm slacking bigtyme this year...

 

[Outlawmws]

And Rick, I hope you get feeling better soon!

Went to a sale today at a very large, old house. Not a lot in the way of tools, but I managed to get this stuff for 10 bucks:

Plastic organizer box with 3/8 MC clamps
10" Ridgid pipe wrench
10" Crescent adjustable
6" Canton Malleable Iron Co. adjustable (gonna have to research this)
Vermont-American pocket phillips
Old can of Liquid wrench

 

[chrismenke]

Super score day...first of 3 houses in a row owned by the same estate. Hope weeks 2 and 3 are just as good.

Today's basement (house 1) was a work shop of a gem & stone polisher hobbyist.

I landed a Dayton work lamp for $20.

A bunch of hand tools & miscellany for $20.

A drill press vise for $15.

And a cast iron surface plate for $30 (I tweaked my back a bit moving it which is why you don't get the surface shot).

I called my buddy about the super industrial polisher and he hopped on it for $175.

He also snatched a Branson Ultrasonic for $25 which I somehow missed. May have to head back tomorrow to see if prices have been marked down on the piles of raw materials and other stuff I don't need!

 

[KZ1000J]

Blue Point HL116P, adjustable slip joint pliers. Garage sale price: $5.00

 

[Outlawmws]

nice finds Chris!

The vise is actually a DP vise. I suppose you could clamp it to the table, but if you are doing that you might as well clamp the part...

 

[Outlawmws]

Holy crud KZ, those are huge! think they are Channellock?

 

[rmalkow2]

WOW!. Lot's of good scores today. Great job everyone.

 

[3baygarage]

Jeff, that CANTON MALLEABLE didn't ring a bell with me so I searched it and found a GJ thread. Outlaw is all over this one :

By the way, I have keys and locks for you!

Darrell,

That is a nice haul. My favorite is the thermometer.

Awesome on both...send me a PM

Says Blue Point, but yes...I'd call it channel-lock as well. I've seen nicer versions on eBay for a lot more than I paid.

 

[Jim_No_Garage]

Went to a Sales this AM and it was picked over. I found 6 - 6" steel rulers of various manufacturers. I asked for a price - she said $4.00 and I counter offered $3.00. She got insulted, said "Were all volunteers here for a good cause" in a pissy tone and put the rulers in her cash box.



At the second sale we found a nice 3 drawer lateral file in beige for $20.00. We got it out of the basement of the split level with help ($5.00 tip for him). No pics as everyone knows what a generic 3 drawer lateral file in beige looks like.

Cheers

Jim

In the UK that would be called a toolmakers vice, more likely to be used on a mill. Can be clamped down in the normal position or on it's edge which should have been ground to be exactly 90 degrees to the base.

 

[Outlawmws]

All the better DP vises are ground that way. But I'd also be OK describing that as a tool makers vise. Just not a "mill Vise" - Not as a normal term.

 

[1nterceptor]

Seller wanted 50 cents for the Snapon screwdriver,
picked up the Craftsman screwdriver next to it so we didn't have to break a $1.

All three for 50. With original manuals!
A craftsman block grinder
A skil 9" grinder
A craftsman sander
and some kind of weird extension cord


The guy had a hatchet looking lineman tool.
On the handle it said 20,000 volts.
Maybe jeffmoss can say what it is?

Got a pic?

 

[uniballer]

Close to this but the point is narrow but little longer

 

[ljhhontx]

It's called a firemans hatchet, for rescue use, voltage rated for insulation from head to handle.

Ok, thanks!

 

[Red_Bull]

got all this for $100

 

[rickhigginshtbr]

Is that some of the hard to find Craftsman CF sockets?

Yes they are! I nearly dumped the tote out on the ground to hunt for more in that box, think I found 5-6 of them.

So you go 8 cabinets with 7 drawers each for $50 total? YOU ****!

I concur. Gonna try that at my local stores...

 

[_vin_]

Picked up a blackhawk jack. I think its a sj18r. I paid before I noticed that the frame was damaged and repaired. But it works, it held my f250 camper special.

Saw that on Como CL. good snag

Pics? I've got one that's on my list to restore one day. Great looking jack

 

[alinc100]

You guys have been killing it for a slow,cold month of January!

I have not had any real shopping time,I've been fortunate to have sold some major items on CL to clear up inventory and make room and cash flow for the spring.
I spent yesterday taking a CCW class and in 8 to 10 weeks will be legally allowed to carry a concealed pistol.
I did use some of my tool money to buy a new personal protection device and did get a little range time before class.

 

[3baygarage]

Sounds cool alinc.

More nice scores guys,

Red Bull, nice 3/4 drive haul there.

 

[Outlawmws]

Alinc100- Looking at your picture I would say you did a pretty good job of correcting the paper perps deviated septum.

Yeah, but how about the part just below the lower No. 8?

 

[classicJackets]

My school seems to be cleaning out a few lab rooms, so I grabbed these two table tops from next to the dumpster. These are the heavy duty Fire-proof chemical resistant ones ( I believe) and probably each weighed 80-100 pounds. One is about 7' and the other is probably 6-10" longer.
Grabbed some cabinets as well. Not sure when I'll get to put anything together out of them but glad to have 'em for future use.

Definitely a "YOU ****" on that find - I had a job years back for a few months installing those countertops in labs. They weigh a ton and cost a pretty penny. They are, however, excellent material for a shop work table, so you done REAL good snagging them...

I have some of those tops salvaged from a lab too. How do you cut them?

This is straight from the Epoxyn (brand I grabbed) installation guide:
"4. Using a diamond tipped or carborundum circular saw blade, make 3 –4 passes using a shallow cut."

[nine4gmc]

Those tops are awesome, did you think to look inside the dumpsters for the cabinets?

 

[JMLangford]

Picked these up a couple of days ago and just now getting to post them......



The sockets came on a plastic rail I've never seen before also I wonder why the 1/4" socket is shaped like a bullet?



Got another "pig sticker"



Cleaned it up and sharpened it....



Tackle box - $1
Sockets on rail - $2
Pig sticker - .50 cents

Total = tree fiddy
