Well, If you couldn't tell by the post count, I'm relatively new to the forum. It was raining today so I didn't get a chance to take pictures of the shop I'm in the process of putting together, but lets start out with my pawn shop finds for today.


One 16oz Blue Point Ball Peen
one old tobacco tin, a cain's cloves tin, a Camillus pocket knife, and a box of faucet bib washers.
one craftsman long C - BE 11/16 - 6pt
one Craftsman V 1-1/8" 6 pt

Grandfathers Star Tap and Die set, still looking for pieces after tornado, it would be nice to know which pieces are gone though, did Star ever have a list of parts to a set?

Grandfathers Craftsman tap and die set

This will be my first toolbox restoration, my grandfathers craftsman toolbox, a two drawer top that will need to be stripped and repainted - do they make red wrinkle paint?

My Kennedy box I got years ago, no face plate, unless someone has one they want to get rid of =) I paid 40$ for it and the girl behind the desk let me fill it with loose tools.

first shelves put back into the new shop building, some shallow mil surplus

New shelves I found in a garage I was paid to clean out

Every shop has to have an official beverage storage apparatus. This one followed me home one day from the campus surplus when I was in college. A mere 30$ cemented mine as the room with the highest average watt/hours used in my dormitory. Some day it will be blasted, insulated, patched, and painted.

finally got the nut and bolt bins against the walls.

two shots of my dad's new shop we are working to re-organize and get shelving for.

Some freebies from another house cleanout, a 3/8 drive ratchet and 10mm socket, #3 phillips, a pre war cake knife, and a big drill bit.

New finds, 4$ for all, a west german made pipe wrench, a couple of black hawk armstrong wrenches, a T-10 and two flat heads, and of course, an air horn.

traded out some flat heads with busted tips today, found out my craftsman box i wanted was paid on so it didn't come up for sale.

I got a job working with Vestas Wind Energy so that's cool. Unfortunately it means working on my dads shop will have to take a back burner, and that I need to round up all my tools and get a box for them, might just go get an AM General from HF I hear they are pretty good.
