Nice SK set. If you don't mind, What did you have to pay for it?

Lots of quality, neat old stuff. Think you'll find those in/outside calipers very useful.

I have a similar (older) 1/4" S-K set that I bought new around 1954. Have posted that picture before, but can again if you'd like to see it.

does that ice pick say "phone number 56"? holy ****!! i grit my teeth every time i read a thread titled, "estate finds", you guys find all the deals on cool old stuff up there!!

love the diy anvil but that SK set is sweet. Ill take a look and see if I have any of those sockets you may be missing. Do they say "SK Tools" or "SK" on them? good finds!!

It came with a 1975 craftsman tool chest with all the tools for $375.

That won't break my heart at all! I have a hard time passing up 1/4" drive stuff.

Great finds, that little track anvil is great... I would like to find one like that some day..

What exactly is the 5th picture in your first post designed for? I've got something similar but not sure what the are designed for doing.

Some say S-K, some are S-K Wayne. Nut driver is a S-K tools, the extention is a Wayne, and so is the ratchet. Maybe I should'nt have said this but that is what it is.

We are remodeling a camping trailer and I put the range hood in the garage under a table next to my truck,it fell uder my truck and I backed into it, not over it though. I have spent a couple hours with the anvil and a hammer tinking away.

they are wire cutting pliers, I looked them up the other night online.

Nice finds! It seems to be SK week this week for estate/yard sale finds... (I got an 18 pc SAE/Metric socket set myself)

 

[jeffmoss26]

You should post these pics in my 'garage sale season' thread

 

[kidatari]

That level is neat! How do you find local estate sales, anyway? Craigslist?

 

[beerdog]

estatesales.net ....the secret is out.

Must be the week for SK tools. I bought a set of 3/8 Deepwell sockets in 6 point in sizes from 3/8 to 3/4 this week at an estate sale for $2.00. They look almost unused. Please don't ask for photos, as that is beyond my computer skills.

I like the in/outside callipers.

 

[JASTECH]

[socket2me]

That 1/4 drive SK set was the preferred weapon of choice when I first began my aviation aircraft rebuilding career. The set I have is actually a combo set with shallow and deeps, two extensions, a swivel, nut driver, and the ratchet.

That ratchet is ultra fine tooth like a fine watch and worked damned well if you only had 1/2" to swing the **** of the ratchet with your hand jammed in a lightning hole to tighten up bolts. I still have my set and would never sell it!!!!
