Giveaway for March 24
« on: March 19, 2012, 09:00:40 PM »
For the March 24th giveaway we have the following:
a Stanley No 78 plane in need of some TLC, the main casting is OK with a fair amount of rust and loss of finish. The cutter is in place and is of reasonable length. It is a SW version so it dates to the 1920's or 30's, however it does not have the original clamp so the blade is held in place by the depth stop and a retaining screw. To go with this I am throwing in a couple of New Britain ratcheting wrenches. One is a No18 which is 9/16 x 1/2 and the other is a No14 which is 7/16 x 3/8. Some rust on a few rivets but otherwise in good condition.

If you guys prefer, I can split this into two giveaways? Let me know, or everyone that's signed up can have a vote and majority rules. Lots of time left for more members to get signed up.

What the heck, sign me up.

Splitting it in two is fine with me; if you do, put me in the "Stanley 78" bucket.

March 24 giveaways are being split into 2 lots. First winner is fflintstone who gets his pick of the Stanley #78 or the 2 ratchet wrenches and keykeeper gets whats left. I am heading to the airport at about 9 am tomorrow and will try to get them in the mail before I leave but it may not happen.Don't panic if you do not see it in a week or so. I am back to Portland on April 4 th and it may be the 5 th before I get it sent away. Wish me luck in Vegas. Jim
