Had $5 left from Thursday's haul so I headed towards downtown and found a few goodies for $8.30 after cleaning out the change from my lunch bag and van floor. The really cool old framing square is not in the photo. The Hansen Stapler was pretty cool and even has a "cleaner" for the staple chute. PowrKraft screwdriver was in an apothecary jar with a bunch of lesser names and the Vacuvise was like $2
The last stop was the winner. Found a house on the way home with a small sign up and here was an old Simonsen Tool Box(never heard of it) and inside was SK 1/2 drive sockets, some misc Craftsman stuff, but the bonus was the Plomb socket, the Proto, the MOssberg, the SnapOn, and a no namer that may be too far gone to resurrect any logo. There's a no name DBE there too I'll have to look up. If anyone can ID the Speeder wrench with the brownish patine to it, I'd be grateful. Oh, and the 421470 SK ratchet, 40161 5" ext., and the 40253 flex made the box worth $17.50.......ANY day of the week.....BTW, I had to go home a beg for the $17.50...and yes, I'll be cleaning the back porch tomorrow instead of more yard sales....I've had about all the fun my wife can stand.....

That's what I call a good haul! Certainly worth cleaning the back porch.

You can't have too many C-clamps! Good score.

Bonneyman: the real C Clamp score was in the Bluff St. sale. There must've been 20 of them in that tray with the drill and the Shaul plumbing wrench. I could argue now that I might be at my personal limit for C/Spring/Lever Clamps.....

Carriage makers clamps, if they have a thumbscrew.
