Title: Marketplace find
Post by: lptools on May 24, 2020, 04:26:25 PM: Hello, I picked up a nice Kennedy Kits 7 drawer box, no key, though. . The price was so good I would have bought it without any tools included. What caught my eye was the AO goggle case. Also a pile of Allen wrenches, Craftsman 10 piece Ignition wrench set, Brown & Sharpe Micrometer and Calipers, 6" Rules, drill gage, and an unusual set of Trammel Points ( more info later). 2 homemade parallel jaw clamps, 3 small C-clamps, and the 2 larger C-clamps are American Lock & Hardware, not a label I am familiar with. A nice group of Bonney Wrenches, and what looks like a complete set of Blue Point Ignition Wrenches, original leather pouch. Regards, Lou

I went to "the boy's" barn sale in Memphis and bought a few goodies cheap. The really good goodies are 3 Williams (long) Superrenches, a Ridgid 706 adjustable and a six inch ruler from Syracuse Bearing with a chain pitch gauge on the back.

Now you have to go find a Raleigh three-speed "English racer" bicycle, Al, for that wrench right center.
