I had five scheduled stops, hit three of them and a TOO.
The first stop had nothing of interest, I skipped the second to get some breakfast but saw a TOO and stopped finding the Snap-on sockets for $5. The next stop is where I found the box of metal do-dads, Winchester nippers, and a nesting screwdriver.
I couldn't find parking at the next stop, so I figured I would hit the last one and circle back.
Well, I was deep into Provincials area then and expected him to have hit this sale before me, but, lo and behold, I found him running it!
I had a great conversation with him, met his lovely wife, got to go through an interesting shop, and while I missed the rush, I found the following:
Kind of a jumble, so I will lay it all out
The larger vise is a Walker Turner Driver, not sure about the smaller, Stanley #55 spoke shave, both knives are Imperial USA, and a Signal Corps. tool set.
Body hammers, hand vises, socket chisels (one Stanley), double female flex, Plomb deep socket, Mossberg ell, MT2 chuck and live center, Blue point and Snap-on DBEs, Walden wrench, and a Rain-Beau nylon line splicing tool.
Pencil box (homemade), four gimlet brace bits, counter sink bit, spoon bit, chisel bit, Plomb screw driver bit, two MT bits, odd little tool (not sure what this is), Goodell Pratt catalog, rigging quick manual.
Provincial gave me a good price, as this was a woman who is in the same quilting club as his wife who was settling her late husbands estate, and he was making sure things went quickly but for good prices. It was good enough that I didn't bother circling back to that other sale.
Just like somebody needed this widget a couple days ago:
