Wow lookit the loot!!
 The box alone was already a smokin, deal with its front cover intact and all, but lookit the loot!!
  The bit drawer looks dynamite
 And I really love that leather micrometer scabbard. With its little flap cover and snap. I never saw one of these!
  Yeah, you suck, Dust! No doubt about it.
    yours Scott

suprised you didnt notice the OLD 12ga   shotgun shell in there.. it had a cardboard shell.. that was older then me and packed a nice wallop when i disposed of it...the leather covered mic was one item i aquired from papaw that i put in it along with  a speed indicator..

You always find little goodies in the machinists boxes! I like the Nixon Agnew button!
