Title: Sale finds from yesterday
Post by: rustyfordgarage on May 13, 2017, 01:31:57 PM

  Went to an estate sale and a few garage sales yesterday.  Bought a few boxes of misc. and some tools for the shop at work. Highlights are a Plomb war finish 1130 5/8 x 9/16 box end, a hand forged pair of dividers and a Disston file card.  I guess I didn't take a pic of the card.

I would have grabbed those dividers for sure, getting the spring to work after the forging is a tough job.  War finish are always a neat find.
