Sounds like you did real good. I picked up a very nice Walden Worcester tappet wrench at the flea market. I find most if the places I go looking for tools the other hoarders are looking for more modern high dollar tools. I take the time and go thru boxes and buckets where a lot of people don't.  I have been buying lots of U.S.A. Craftsman tools as of late.
