Title: Another stop at JD's Bargain Barn, Port Byron
Post by: amecks on March 18, 2017, 01:56:37 PM

Not so much a bargain but the family is so nice I'd hate to argue.  The Yankee driver has a full handle of bits.  An Irwin 200 -3".  Fairmount 9" adjustable.  They like to tape together wrenches that are all the same size so two McKaig-H's and a Barcalo.  These Barcalo's appear better than some I've seen - are they a good wrench?  The S wrench has no markings and is sadly, broken.  The caster wheels might fit my work table at my job.

I'm going to have to take a ride to your neck of the woods and check out this place some day. Barcalo  wrenches are pretty good quality. At least the ones made in Buffalo. I think that they are starting to be collectable lately. I see them at every other estate sale that I go to and usually quite cheap.

I have bought lots of those multi bit screwdrivers and drills just to get bits. The bits new are quite expensive. The bits come in several different sizes also.
