The rules are simple. First person to reply "I'll take it" gets it. That person then pays it forward by offering something. And on it goes. The giver is responsible for shipping. If an item is unclaimed after 14 days, the giver must offer a new item. The idea is to keep the thread going...
All members are welcome to play. Just remember that when you take something, you have to give something!
Please let the giver know when the item arrives.
I'll get things started. 12" Diamond Calk Horseshoe Co. wrench. Could use a little cleaning.
First one to post I'll take it. PM your address.
I made the topic a sticky- We'll see how it does.
I like the idea. You should have posted that Thorsen screwdriver :)
I'll take it.

I'll take the hammer/screwdriver and the wrenches.
I offer to whoever wants them two #2 alligator wrenches. One is a Whitman & Barnes #2 Bulldog, and the other is a rough Vaughn & Bushnell #2.
wow this went quick!
If no one wants the alligators, I'll put up something else.
Heck, I'll take the alligators! Lets keep it rollin' !! (14 days ? Pul-ease !!)
Give me a minute to find a pic for my Giveaway.
Brian
How about something for the woodworkers !
Marples and Sons 3/4" chisel - Sheffield England. Even has the little edge protector !
Brian
OK, is this still on? If so, I'll claim it. Will have a pick of a Craftsman adjustable up as soon as i find it.
John, it's yours ! Enjoy !
Brian
I said Craftsman, but, can't find it. So right in front of me is a heckuva pipe wrench. A genuine HD Smith, PERFECT HANDLE-patented. Some little bit of surface rust, no pitting, zero, not bent, and the wood scale handles are virtually perfect. Not wire brushed, shellacked, painted, or even splattered with white paint. It is roughly 14 inches long, with the jaw closed, and says 14inch right under HDSMITH.
I'm a sucker for a pipe wrench, and those of the wooden handled variety are few and far between here. Send it my way, PLEASE!!!!!!!! I promise to love, honor, protect, etcetera, etcetera....until death due us part.
My offering? A Ampco S-1100 Phillips BECU screwdriver.

Agreed. ... And I think the sender should advise when he's planning to ship. Particularly if there will be a delay. :) Personally, I always assume things are getting mailed in the next day or two. I know it doesn't always work this way, but that's how I think. I start watching the mail and I get anxious if it doesn't arrive when I think it should, when, in reality, things aren't always sent the next day.
Bump
The offering is an Ampco S-1100 Phillips BECU screwdriver. Stake claim if you have a desire for it, otherwise I'll find something else to offer over the weekend.

I'm thinking folks don't know what you are offering there, BECU is expensive stuff, might want to explain it a bit.
Skip
A brand shiny new one will cost you over $35...
Not that I don't appreciate it, I just don't need it. Not that that's stopped me from picking up tools in the past, but I'm trying to limit my acquisitions these days to tools I might actually use vs tools that are cool. I've already got my trading stock picked out for when the right tool comes along. That said, I hope this screwdriver finds a home.

It'll have a nice home :)
Is this an Electricians screwdriver? Non-arching? I googled BE-CU without much luck. Does anyone have a link to some info about this company?
BeCu is Beryllium Copper. It considered to be of high strength, while also being non magnetic and non sparking. One application is in a refining environment where you wouldn't want to create a spark (let's say in a gasoline truck loading rack). I understand it is appropriate to note it has toxic properties. You do not want to breath the dust or vapors of it; although it is thought to have no health concerns in a solid form.
The new offering is a Bostitch Model 5 in gently used condition.

I understand it now and have 7 vintage DOE wrenches that I am now taking photos of.
I will post them asap as Donna is photographing them now.Stand by.....
Here are the 7 DOE vintage wrenches.
Old iron wrenches, sure! Something about the simplicity of the combination open ends. I'll gladly take them. Will offer up a 12 inch adjustable, (Crescnet-type), in your choice of Diamond, or some other brand. Straight from the farm, workable, oiled, but with working dings, scrapes, showing it was in use for 30+ years. Do I need to show a pic of an adjustable?

Do you have a 12" Crescent Jamestown version?
Went out to the shop tonight, found two Crescent Tool Co. Jamestown, NY,,,, 12in. Forged Crestoloy Steel,,,, Made in U.S.A. The better one has no weld marks, intials, is not bent, has 80% or better chrome remaining, is just minus the screw for the knurled adjuster, not sure I have the right one aorund here. May have another but take a day to get to it. So?
Pick the 2 items that you would like.
The top wrench has a clear coating on it.

Count me in for both the wood handle adjustable wrenches.
I will post my offering shortly.
My offering is a metal punch press, by Whitney metal tool co. Ive had it a while and its time to go on to its next owner. Its handle has been cut down by previous owner, and its currently set up as a center punch. I was told other dies are still available. I have dissembled it so it fits in a flat rate box.

dang, wish that handle wasn't cut.......
Quote from: fflintstone on October 07, 2013, 03:09:49 PM
dang, wish that handle wasn't cut.......
I agree.
If the handle wasn't cut and it came with a complete set of dies it would be fantastic. Its still worth saving, but just not as good.
I have to make everything fit in the garage cabinets or my small shop so my mom can get her car in the garage over winter. That's the reason ime starting to make room in the cabinets.
Its still a cool piece, so if anyones interested let me know.
I wonder if a person couldn't get a replacement handle from Roper Whitney. They still make this punch, or one nearly identical, the No. 16. I know they stock parts for their bigger machines, maybe they stock some for their punches as well. And the dies are definitely available from them.
If no one is interested I will post another offer tonight.
I'll take it Nola, I have a Roper Whitney hand punch, but my hand isn't as strong as it used to be. Hmmmmm..... I think I can fix the handle.
Here is my Pay It Forward offering. A 5/8" PROTO Flare Nut and a 7/8 in PROTO Combination wrench. Both are marked by a previous owner.

Had not had any takers, so I thought I'd give it a bump.

I am offering an S K WAYNE 8" adjustable. Needs a little cleaning, but it has a new adjuster.
S K WAYNE DEFIANCE OHIO
FORGED ALLOY IN USA
oops,must of had a brain fart last night.
Guess I have to pick out something else, no one wants that adjustable.
I'll give it until tonight.
I'll take it, Papaw. I have plenty of good stuff for the PIF fans!!
Alright, I've come to realize, with a rash of recent health issues, I will probably never get around to rehabilitating these two "perfect handle" screwdrivers. I've tried to show in the pics what needs done to them, some straightening and/or regrinding of the tips. Scales are intact, just loose. Need a little peening of the pins to fix them.
Also, throwing in a Mossberg 252 doe wrench. rusty but in good shape. should clean right up.
Three nice oldies for someone that will appreciate them.
Enjoy, whoever wants them. US only please, as I can't really afford shipping out of country at this moment. I hope that request is ok.
Great, since I recently depleted my PH screwdrivers, I'll go for these, and that Mossberg. In turn, will bring something in from the shop tonight, which may include a nice little pipe wrench I just dug up. Thank You.
OK, my offering here is a 10in. RIDGID pipe wrench, steel, good teeth, has some red paint remaining. Lots of shelf wear, and little usage wear, was on a service truck. Will post pic if someone asks. As soon as I take the photo.

Bump!
No body wants a monkey wrench for Christmas?
Haarruummph!
This old monkey wrench has been up for grabs since Dec 8. Is Pay iIt Forward dying or is a Pexto wrench that common that no one wants it?
It does surprise me that NO ONE wants a free monkey wrench.
Quote from: Papaw on January 03, 2014, 02:17:55 PM
It does surprise me that NO ONE wants a free monkey wrench.
It is kinda beat up, tho.
Just saying, I have about 15 monkeys, at least 4 in some sizes. When I put up a giveaway, if I didn't get takers in 5 days, would replace it with something different. But then I have piles to choose from!
I'm struggling between a couple responses: 1) the tools I love most are "beat up", and 2) Offer another.
I once struggled giving away a nice sparkless screwdriver :)
I don't think the thread is dead or dying.
Thanks for the offering, John! I would take you up on it, but frankly have another of the same.
If I didn't already have several, I would have taken it. Thought better to let someone else grab it!
This was a good thing, Interesting, fun,...
So what happens when it Stalls? Maybe new rules? (Other volunteers? add in "tool worth more than shipping?") I can check my stash on what extra tools I can send from Hawaii. (@Small Flat Rate items)

Got the PROTO 9/16 nutdriver, Thank you Bunger.. Bill's package sent out, should arrive soon...
he got it!!
Here's my offering:
1. A pair of older Vise Grips - no model number on movable jaw, patent information on the release handle, both of which I think makes them WWII or older. The fixed jaw has a welded repair, but these should make good users.
2. An (im)perfect handle screwdriver, waiting for a restoration. The side shown is the funkier side.
3. A cute little pair of needle nose pliers, Omega brand.

bump..
I am surprised no one interested, all 3 very useful tools. When did those screwdrivers become un-wanted?
Id like to participate but I am not so much a tool hoarder, I get tools I plan to use or display and do not typically have items to pass along that anyone would be interested in.
I'll take that deal! Now that means I got to trudge thru the snow to the shop to find some swap material. 85 yesterday, 32 with blowing snow right now, I love Nebraska. PM sent, thank you.
OK, one genuine MAC tool, Sabina Ohio screwdriver, early 1950s, excellent shape. Will have it up for 5 days, then change to something rusty. yellow plastic handle, will post pic when it works again. I put a pic up here a month ago about this tool.
I discovered MAC when I was (briefly) working as a VW mechanic. When I win the lottery, I plan to call the local MAC dealer, and see if their tools are as good as they were all those many years ago. Someone needs to jump on this offer.
Since no one has jumped,,, I WILL TAKE IT!!!
Mr. Chuck has it, now to be on the look out for another, which may not happen! Not this nice. Thank you,

Hint: a 4 letter word, and something everyone needs on his work bench, or near it.

> 4 letter word, and something everyone needs on his work bench,
Cash?
BEER?
I see it, it is a vise !
Oops. Is it a Lite?
4 letters & light enough to ship Flatrate? Small Vise? maybe TOOL..
File?
I am trying to "post' 4 re-sized photos of the above "pay it forward" tool.
the pixel count is small and under the maximums.
It will NOT go thru as it has in the past.
Can anyone advise me what to do?

PLEASE ADVISE,,,,,,,thank you.

Branson, send me your info again, I lost it.

Give me a couple of days to find and photograph something appropriate. I'm in the middle of insulating and sheet rocking my workshop, and can't seem to find anything!

Not to worry. And I'm still wading through all the stuff that has to be organized and put some place accessible in the shop. There ain't no trees, nothing but a forest with lots of underbrush.
Branson, did you have some "Before" photos of your shop? to see the change after remodeling?
The before photos would show an empty back yard. There had been a garage many years ago (the house was built in 1925) but it burned down -- long enough ago that there
wasn't even a sign of the old foundation. So, not a remodel, but a new build. Everything got expensiver and expensiver, so things got done in stages. The last stages were
getting the electrical done, which meant disassembling what had been done so I could work, and get out tools that had been in storage. And as long as almost everything was
out, insulation and sheet rock went up.
Now that the electric is in, and the sheet rock is up, I'm putting everything back in a more organized way. And that is taking more time than I thought.
If Branson will permit, I will give this a Friday night jump start.
Here are two nice dupes from my 1/2 x 9/16 DBE collection,
and a vintage PLVMB 3/8 extension (both arrowheads point down, whatever that means).
Look em over boys !! You know how it works!
Brian
I'll definitely permit! I've spent the past weeks working on my shop every day. Electricity in, insulation up, sheet rock up, one workbench disassembled to get it out of a friend's basement and reassembled in its new home. ShopSmith returned to service (new motor, pulleys put in their proper position). Yesterday I finally was able to move the 4' by 8' work bench in! It's been almost 10 years since I last had it to work on. Built in more storage (much more still needed). With that big work bench I can lay out big batches of stuff to sort through for the pay it forward. Still have to get a lot of boxes and some chests of tools out of storage and into the shop, leaving enough room to work comfortably. Next step is to disassemble the General National table saw, now in that same basement, haul it home and reassemble it. There's even enough room for it -- the 4 X 8 workbench will serve as an out feed table as well.
I thought (silly me) that all this could be accomplished in a week...
Bump to the top... adding Bonney 3/8 Sliding Tee.
Come on now - you know you want it !!
Brian
Okay, I told self that if they be here by evening, I'm jumping in, I just checked and the sun has gone down. Those Easco wrenches are starting to grow on me. Consider them taken. Now to head out to the shop and find something to photograph.
Here tis, very decent, almost unused Craftsman metrics. The all important 13 and 15 are there, and the increasingly popular 7mm, speak up they can be yours.
I need those. I'm finding that I don't have enough metrics and Cratsman's are my working set.
I'll dig out something later today to put up.
Thanking everybody for being patient with me. I just got enough cleared in my shop to put a pay-it-forward package together.
Kraeuter #948 battery pliers
Kastar feeler gauge set
AC sparkplug gauge
A[ex #1510 stubby bit holder NOS
Clip for S-K Wayne #45 M wrench set -- metric
I'll send 'em out a lot faster than I found them!
I'd like to have that lot, Branson.
Mainly because my initials are AC and I pickup anything that has AC on it in the way of spark plug tools!
The rest is pretty nice as well!!
You got it, keykeeper. PM your address and it will be on its way.
Well I'm confused.
Do we have 2 pay it forwards going here at the same time?
Am I getting johnk's offering and am I supposed to put up something, or is keykeeper next up because he is getting something from Branson?
One was started because Branson needed time to get his ready. No problem running two at a time, just keep track of who asked for which first. All that should be covered in PMs.

As I understand it, if you get something here, you put something up. No reason why we can't have more than one going, in my opinion, as long as everyone remembers who's getting what. It makes it more fun.
Bunger, PM me your address, so I can send out the Craftsman.
I've been on the road for a couple days.
Address sent and I will get something posted over the weekend.
Ok here's my giveaway:

I forgot about the giveaway. I'll find something cool to put up in a day or two.
aaron
If nobody want these,I'll take them. I could use the sockets. I'll put something up in a few.
My tools are a pair of CAM-LOC wrenches in 9/16" and 5/8". If you notice the wrenches are stamped on opposite sides.
How do those cam-loc wrenches work?

Ken, PM me your address.
>How do those cam-loc wrenches work?
They have eccentric rollers that only dog in one direction and retract in the other direction, so they roll out and conform to the hex head going forward and grab it, and they retract in reverse allowing the hex to slip by, thus providing ratching motion ....
Thanks Rusty
Who was up last? Summer has us all busy, and my yard looks it. So, someone toss out the ball again!!!
Cam Loc's are still available. If nobody wants them,then someone put something else up.
Ken, If no one got them, Ill be glad to use them, Got to dig up something soon to give...
PM me your mailing info and I'll get these out,Ken.
Dang, there's been some nice tools posted in here! :embarrassed:
I need to start checking in here more often.

Thank you Ken, they look great!!! will have something to giveaway soon...

Will leave up for a week, if no takers, will post other tools...
Any takers? if not will post something else 7/3/14
Aloha
If those are still available, I'll take them. Don't know how many times I've shot a ring across the garage trying to get it off/on. Those will come in handy. Tomorrow is the 4th and lots of things to do but will dig something out over the weekend and get them posted.
I'll PM you my address. Hope your 4th is safe.
Ouray, Got your PM, will send out soon, enjoy..
Sorry for the delay in getting this posted. Been without phone and internet since last Saturday. Seems like someone was digging and cut the phone lines. Living in a remote area of Colorado, things don't get fixed as fast as in the big cities. But things do get done eventually and now all is good.
So, here is my offering. A real nice Plomb WF-21 3/8 ratchet with a couple Plomb universal sockets. The sockets are 7/16 (WF-73) and 1/2 (WF-74).
I'm in, I have been building a pebble set ever since Scott showed us one on Ebay.
Chilly
You got it. Got your PM and will get these out soon.
Oldtool Guy,
Got the tools today and "Thank you". Going to be doing the rear brakes on my truck this weekend and the C-ring toll will be very handy. Can see using both of the tools for odd projects in the future. Thanks again, John.
Plomb ratchet & sockets came in today.
I'll have something up by tomorrow.
Any requests? Lol

I would like them! PM sent.
If I won I'll be posting some neat old wrenches this evening.
Those are nice! If I didn't already own a pair of battery pliers, I'd be on it!
Here we go, I hope these are good choices. [I will give it til Saturday evening - if no one likes these I'll post something else].
4 wrenches - hey wait - does not include my favorite ruler! That's for size reference, it's a 6" ruler. None of these are plated.

Indestro stamped 7/16 over 20 and on the other side 7/8 is stamped at an angle. Not sure of the actual sizes but may be 1" and 7/8".

(http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q177/tamalecks/Toolssell-swap012_01_zpsf44c6829.jpg)
And a Plomb DBE 1/2" x 9/16" WF-81. "Plomb" has V in front and upside down V behind. This one has always wanted to be rusty. Needs some linseed oil rubbed in or something.

That's sure a good looking wrench.
If nobody wants this I'd be happy to accept it.
They're yours HS! Send me a PM with your address and they'll be in the mail tomorrow.

Those are nice, but I just took my turn, so waiting for someone else to benefit from these useful tools...
OK- forget the adjustables.
I offer this hex wrench set. Ratchet marked 673, bar marked Made In USA, sockets are Duro/Indestro style. Sockets are all 12 point. but mixed size markings.
1-2, 1/2, 9/16, 5/8, 11/16, 3/4, 7-8, 15-16
The case has green paint inside like Duro/Indestro but no name markings.

Still no takers? I'll throw in a pair of Crescent piers, model LS-26, made in the USA, in excellent condition.
Papaw - If the adjustables are still up for grabs I would love to give them a home.
They are- I added the pliers to get the thing going again. I think I have you address. If not I'll PM you. Do you want the hex socket set?
I would be very pleased to just have the adjustables. Why don't you save the hex socket set for another round. Thank you very much! I'll get my offering together tomorrow (with some thought overnight).

Showing my lack of age here I'm sure... What are they? o.o I mean, there are some obvious ones in there... 1/2" drive extension, a wrench for the old square heads, a needlessly complicated box wrench... But, the rest? Are they just sockets on dowels, essentially?

They're way cool Twilight!
Chilly
Twilight,
those were made by Walden Tool Co. Worcester, Mass. around the years 1917-1924
for the automobile industry. the Tomahawk was for the Ford Model - T, as were
a few of the others.
Frank
Mr. Rascal,
I would be honored to hang numbers 9 and 10 on my wall. I think that the Walden Model T tools are part of a set.
PM to follow.
Thanks in advance.
Johnsironsanctuary
the 620 Tomahawk might be a 1620 Tomahawk.
the 2418 was listed as a Ford socket wrench in 1923
then in 1924 it was also listed as a socket wrench for Chevrolet
it should have 9/16" & 3/4" sockets
Walden made many Ford "T" wrenches, then around 1924 they came out with a
new display board of socket wrenches for Chevrolet cars.
the big sales tool display board was #39B, It held 5 each of, 13 types of wrenches.
the board was 5 feet by 2 feet, boxed for shipping, the board was listed as 108 lbs
and the 65 wrenches with hanging hooks was listed as 88 lbs.
all for $66.75

Here is my offering. A barn fresh Bell System wrench.
I found one on eBay that is nicer and easier to read. That one shows original blue paint. I did not want to disturb the patina on mine. That would diminish the value.

Maybe now it will interest someone.
I would be happy to take it.

Id really like to have that one hander cause I found this 10 inch one hander within the tools I recently purchased. I think it needs a friend.
I am not a fan of pipe wrenches but that one looks extra clean, if you would like to send me the one hander and keep the pipe wrench though cause you can sell it later than that is OK.
Excellente !!

I know some of you guys may like this Rigid 14 inch. Pretty cruddy. If no takes I have lots of other crud.
No interest?
This will be going in the trash cause I have no use for it, if anyones wants it let me know and just pay the shipping
This lot of tools that I have left over, miscellaneous stuff, according to some guys on GG these TrueCraft and PowrKraft tools are collectible.
Some wrenches as well that are not going with my theme.
At this point this is the best I can do cause I dont collect tools to give away or trade, I collect them cause I want them/use them and I just dont have spares unless I run across a deal where I buy a bunch of stuff.
Hopefully someone here will want these.
There are some Proto sockets in there as well.

If no-one wants this stuff than someone else can go cause Im all out for the time being until I sort thru more stuff.
I'd be interested in the Craftsman wrenches. Is this take-your-pick, or you dumping it all?

Is the powrkraft wrenches, drag link socket, and socket adapter still available? How about the other sockets?
If they are still available I'd be interested. I'd pay postage, since you already paid shipping to JessM.....
I've been working on my garage a lot, digging out all kinds of stuff. I'll finally know all my duplicates, hopefully.

No takers, does anyone collect the Vacuum series tools? Got a pair of #96 if anyone is interested.
The "ratchet" is missing something.
Poor mans ratchet.
You have to make the noise.
Say "Bzzzzzz..click..click..click..swish" as you go back and forth
Everyone will assume you have a real ratchet ;P
I'll take it. Will post my item later today.

Other tools are fine.

I can't speak for everyone, or Papaw, but I will... :grin: I think older tools are what fuels the flame around here.
Older tools are our focus and we should keep to that in the giveaways.
Here is my offering: three unmarked wood planes.
Woah... Those are nice. The metal one is a Stanley. I'd take them, but it would be purely out of greed, as I'm already well covered in this area. Nice giveway though.
Those are sweet! They're redundant to my needs, and I'm sure somebody's going to want them; but if no one else takes them in a few days, keep me in mind.
I would very much like to have them. I will go and try and find something in my opinion that is just as nice to give away. If I cannot than I will report back such and they can go to the next guy.
PM me your name and address and they are yours, 1930. Oh, be sure to include your dob, account #, mother's maden name and two forms of identification :grin:
My batteries are dead but can take pics tomm night after work.
I have to give away what is maybe a complete standard Indestro socket set, all but two are Indestro ( one is Napa and the other a name I have never heard of but U.S brand ) I remember using them 40 plus years ago as a kid.
They were my dads and they were as my father kept them and used them. Sizes 1 inch to 5/16 3/8 drive.
Nice socket set and I am sure someone would enjoy them as much as I will enjoy the planes.

I opened and closed the site 3 times cause I just could not decide if I wanted them knowing chances are Id only display them which is kind of a shame but each time I opened the topic people had viewed the giveaway and no-one had jumped so I decided to be selfish.
I will enjoy the planes, thanks

JessEm, as I was boxing up the tools for mailing, I noticed on the end of the blade adjustment screw "Stanley" which I had not previously seen. Looks like your first comment was correct.

I would love to give them a home.

Spoiled, looking for the high dollar items:)
Not me :P Just waiting for something I can use! Those hickory sticks are tempting... but I don't have a hammer worthy of them yet :P
Wood sounds good, got a dozen hammer heads looking for a handle. Got the high dollar stuff,,,, this I can use!
Alright then, get something so I have to put up something. Got wrapped up in another project so did not get pics taken tonight. That and the two inches of new snowfall, I'll deal with that tomorrow. Have a nice Billings adj. wrench, or maybe a pair of small monkey wrenches. pics to follow.
I am offering this unusual old ratchet, square drive hole approx. 1/2 in. Not rusty, just lots of use and shelf wear. Patina, yes, patina, looks to have been nickel plated at one time, no numbers or name if I recall correctly.
Well, had quite a week, so am changing the offer to this deal: took these pics tonight, so I know exactly where these wrenches are! You got choice, any 3 of these, Proto, Plumb, Indestro, Williams, etc. Will lighten the tool box for me.
I like double box end wrenches I'll take (3) DBE.
The big one on top in the first photo, the one below it & the Plumb in the second photo
All 3 of these are Plumb, the third one is a Plumb pebble, so PM me an address. Having iffy contact with my satellite reciever, may take a couple of days extra. Just checked and these are Plumb with a V.
PM sent.
I'll dig out my giveaway tonight.
OK, lets try this.
Kastar, made in USA plug tool, Hout micro drill box w/20 drills #61-#80 and a small pin vise to use with the drills.

The small pin vises and small bits come in handy when you smash a finger nail and need to relieve the pressure.

I just use a needle, heated red hot over a gas burner (not sure how you do this if you have an electric stove). I've had to do it just a couple of times, thank goodness. Freaked my bride out both times.
I did my sons with a pin vise and small bit a couple of months ago. For a brief moment, it was like a little blood geyser. And a huge relief for the boy.

If you have a small tap and die, you can thread the hole and a plug in case you need to relieve it again. :smiley:

Ok, after being gone the last couple evenings, I put together some offerings. First to respond IN THE THREAD (and PM shipping info) can have their choice of one of the three following:
1- New Britain NS-65 1/2" drive ratchet, not a shelf queen, but still works. Needs cleaned/lubed. (First two photos)
2- Couple of Massey harris wrenches...One marked z 43 w/Canada on reverse and one odd one marked M555
Claimed by Skipskip
3- Walden 3150 1/4" ratchet, needs cleaned/lubed and a Newer, strange 3117 breaker bar with no detent ball on it?? I put the other older one I have beside it to show difference. Same model number, just different. Old one not included. Off the Amecks
If anyone wants the others for cost of shipping after someone has claimed "FIRST", then they can have those for shipping cost to their location. I can only send first item to US address, can't afford international right now. Thanks.

but think how much fun you will have caring for these, and how happy you will be when they are done.

Chilly, am wondering what you have dug out to offer? Things okay there?
Sorry for the delay, it's been a heck of a week! Last Wednesday the took out another bone - the right hand pointer finger end this time. All the hassles and restrictions kept me out of the garage for awhile.
Here is my offering - a NIP Armstrong 1/4" speeder. Very nice chrome finish.
I show my other one below the package, so that it can be seen.

Chilly
I hope things start getting better for you soon.
I always think they are better, I am lucky that way.
Like I have said before, I wouldn't ever want to trade my problems with anyone else. Overall, I am happy with my problems and blessings (I feel they go hand in hand.)
Dr. on Monday said that he is glad that I won't die from that bone. (They did the surgery 5 days earlier than planned.) I replied that I haven't ever been afraid of dying (it's true, probably just how I was raised.)
My only question now is: If I am in a group where we vote by a show of hands, do I get a full vote, still, or only 93% of a vote?
Chilly
Nobody wants / needs a 1/4" spinner? I'll just have to post some alternates, I guess?
You get my vote.
And I will take that spinner off your hands.
That's a nice one, Papaw! I know you like those Armstrong tools! You have showed a few to us in the past!
Every one needs an alligator wrench. This model was called Ever Ready, though this one is not so marked. It is marked with-
ATLAS TOOL CO NEW YORK
Stamped steel wrench with good teeth and thread dies in the center.

I seem to keep collecting Armstrong tools by accident :P The Anvil I picked up is an Armstrong, I've got a whole set of chromed chisels I got from my grandfather that are marked Armstrong... Seems like every week I open up my tool box and notice one of them has an Armstrong logo on them that I never noticed before. lol
Guess I'll have to sweeten the pot! No one wants that alligator?

OK folks. Can't give away cool tools? I am upping the ante here with a Bergman Queen City 6" curved adjustable. Not in the best condition, but some of you have never seen or owned one.

Now if that doesn't get this thread out of hibernation, I might just give up!
Can't see your pictures, Papaw.
Fixed it.
I'm in, I'll get something up soon.
This is a tough crowd.
heelspur, maybe they are all camped out at their local pawn shop ?
Lets start out with these, 2 Crafty's & a Blackhawk (1/4" ers)
(http://i1082.photobucket.com/albums/j368/wvabe/002-17.jpg)
(http://i1082.photobucket.com/albums/j368/wvabe/003-20.jpg)
Id use the hellouta them
Im gonna start out with this 1/4 Snap-On socket clip, looks like it has barely been used, some very small areas of slight surface rust forming at the base of the clip but should clean up with a little bit of WD-40 and some steel wool.
I was told that this was the very first socket clip that Joseph Johnson himself hand stamped out way back in 1920 but I have no concrete proof.
I will add though that if one were to look at the backside very closely and under just enough magnification one would swear under Bible ( not me :) ) that a number 1 is visible ( although honestly I am contemplating if that is just a bit of surface rust )
I am also under the impression that the number 2 socket clip just recently sold ( popular online auction ) for the sum of two million dollars but I just dont have the time or energy to list something on E-bay and deal with all the con-artists.
Screwdriver NOT included.
1930, Can we have a close-up shot of the back side of that clip?
Al
Ok, someone school me....what is a socket clip? Like used on a rail with others to hold sockets? Or some other use?
Little confused with this post?
Yea- 1930 is having a bit of fun here.

Yes thats it, do you want it? I can save the Protos for some other giveway. Just send me your address and Ill have the clip on its way :grin:
ok, socket clip, I get it now. Thought 1930 was being serious. I'm all full up on socket clips at the moment, even a couple rails to go with them.
No thanks on the proto wrenches, if they were Wright tool co. I'd be all over them!
No problem, this is what I have to offer, let it stay up for a while and if no-one wants them ( cant imagine why not ) than someone else can go, I have other tools I do not mind giving away but these are nice wrenches and someone will eventually come along that wants them.
I thought Proto was pretty popular with you guys

I will stay out of this one but Id like to have one of those keyring screwdrivers if you have any more spares
I've owned a couple of those flare nut wrenches over the years; it hadn't registered, though, that they were flare nut wrenches. The design I've been familiar with, used on automotive brake and similar lines, were all six-point, and, of course, smaller.

Thanks but they are prob. pretty common on E-bay and cant imagine the cost high
You can buy some on Amazon and Ebay, but the real deal, like Proto, etc. sell high on Ebay-

Usually $25-$30 - That is a very nice offering!
Would not have thought, would not pay that much for that piece.
BUMP
I have matching Husky wrenches 33024 and 33028 in my hand last evening drooling over having a set someday as users. They sat in my Ebay store for a couple years unsold. I like the feel. Trying to leave the thread for others as well but I'll bite if not gone soon. Proto driver can go to 1930 if I bite.
OR between John and I we could get you to 4 wrenches should there be somebody wanting to assemble a set of Husky USA.

I'm not in on this one , but I wanted to say that tool books or catalogs would be very welcome here. IMHO.

Bump! Been almost 2 weeks
Yeah, If no one wants my second offering, I'll make a third attempt by the end of the week.
Bunger: I'll take the second lot offered, that Proto chisel is calling my name. I've debated all day about this one.
I'll post up something as soon as I can.

Bump!
Bump again! Been a month now!
Someone needs to jump in to keep this rolling! Lost my photo stash with my old puter, need to take more random tool pics, but when I get started on that I don't get anything else done!
Sorry I let this get so far behind! I'll get us back on track with this-
I am offering a Wakefield No 19 adjustable. Made in Worcester Mass under patent of Nov 14, 1922 9 inches long and except for some jaw dings, in good condition.

Oilyrascal would maybe want that, Ill put dibs in for him until he chimes in, hopefully he will do so in the next few days. Give him a few days and lets see what happens.
Heelspur, the Wakefield is packaged up and ready for the Postal carrier in the AM. I have your address already.

OK, Thank You.
Got the wrench today Papaw its much nicer than in the pics, thank you.
I'll get something else up tomorrow evening if no one wants the Thorsens.
OK, the Thorsen box is out, pick one of the 10" Penens pipe wrenches, 10 or 10J.

You got em, send me your info.
Thank you,Heelspur.
OK,gents.
Here's my offer.
Its a Bell system lineman's wrench made by Klein and sons.
I don't know a thing about these wrenches.
Does the 2-67 stamping mean it was made in February,1967?
Don't know if anyone here collects Bell System stuff or not.
If not,I'll put up something else this weekend.
BUMP??

Got the Thorsen stuff and its nicer than I expected.Thank you very much,Heelspur!
I was going to offer something in place of the Bell system wrench,but I happened across a Bell screwdriver to go with it.
The blade has a bit of a bend to it but it should straighten out OK.
If it doesn't go,I'll put up something else.
Thank you for your patience,guy's.
No bites on the Bell stuff. :embarrassed:
Everyone likes ratchets,I think.
So up now is a craftsman 3/8 drive,part no.943796.
40 tooth and works smoooth.

I think something is wrong with your picture... I can't open it in any of my programs o.o
I can't seem to get the pictures to load,just the links.
I don't think I'm doing anything different from the last time.
I can open the links on my phone,though.
Maybe a moderator can fix it for me.
If you mean a 3/8" Craftsman ratchet, I'll go for that. We just bought a new RV, and I'm assembling the toolkit. I'll send you a private message with my address.
I have tried every way know to open the files with no success. Where do you have them hosted? Or are they just on your hard drive?Something about a bad or wrong file extension.

Consider it yours ,then,Bill.
Just boxed it up with your address and I'll send it this weekend.
OK, my turn. Here we've got a set of Goodell-Pratt inside calipers, a set of Starrett outside calipers with a quick-release nut, and a Craftsman drill bit gauge for number drills 1-60, with a tap drill table for screws from #2 to 1/4" (calls out the drill bit size for the clearance hole, too).

No nibbles on my offering of last week. Here's another attempt. Your choice of two T-handles or one ratchet. Details:
1/4" T-handle is a Plomb 4785 (unless that reads [triangle]785 - eyes ain't what they wuz). The surface is a little oxidized, but not rusty.
1/2" T-handle is a Williams S-20A. Nice and clean.
1/2" ratchet is an Armstrong S-91. There's a little rust on the knurling on the handle, and around the head, but it should clean up nicely. One cool feature: the ratcheting-direction lever has a detent on center, where the drive will freewheel. Unless this was a bug, I assume it's for those times when the bolt is free-running enough that you can twist the socket with your fingers to speed it in/out.
If you're consumed by lust for all three, and agree to kick a little money Papaw's way to support this neighborhood (amount purely up to your budget), I can send them all.
WOW! Bill, I thought the calipers & drill gage would have been grabbed!! 10 days & no nibbles? now the pot is sweeter with those drivers...
If no one else is interested, I would be happy with either set, Up to you, what ever is cheaper to ship to Hawaii,
(FYI, Flat rate shipping is same for all U.S. states, so a small box at ~$5.95?)
Oldtools,
Looks like you're the winner. Yes, I'll be sending whichever package flat rate, and any of them will fit in a flat rate envelope or box, so let me know your preference, and your address - private message maybe best.
Bill
Thank you Bill, As I don't have a drill gage yet, please send that set.. Should fit in a small flatrate box. or what ever method is cheaper..
will be looking for something to send out soon...

Twertsy,
send me your mailing address in a private message.
This is now two pay-forwards coming from my offering in response to one - it'll be interesting to see how it works out with two running together.
Guys, just want to post a note that I haven't forgotten, just been a hectic week between business and getting our house on the market/searching for a new place. Plus, this'll be my first PIF posting on this site so I want to make sure it's a good one! Stand by, give me a couple days to put something together.
Thanks for the patience, Todd.
Thank you Bill, got the gage & calipers, will be posting something soon...
Sorry it took so long to find something, been distracted recently...

Wow! It was worth the wait. Somebody will snap them up.
Anyone interested?
if not I will look for something else by Monday...
Ok folks,
Please accept my sincerest apologies for the delay.
Let's try this Chicago ratchet/socket set - Complete.

Unfortunately, that's why I don't post here much. I've tons of stuff to show you guys, but it's simply too much of a bother to resize, or "share" (I have to share pics publicly before you can see them) and post links, etc. Please don't take that the wrong way, it just "is."
twertsy,
I upload all my photos to Photo Bucket, then link the IMG code to any thread on GG, GJ, or PW. It never fails except when they're doing maintenance on Photo Bucket (seldom). With Photo Bucket/IMG code you don't have to worry about photo sizing/resizing.
The only thing you have to remember on PB is: NEVER DELETE A PHOTO FROM YOUR BUCKET. This will cause you to loose ALL the photos you've posted on all three sites.
So get with the PB...
It's a "Google convenience" thing for me. Every pic I take is automatically uploaded to my plus account, and I attach/use from there. Issue is I have to "share" the photo(s) to the public to link you guys to them.

I haven't counted them but I did inventory them and every piece listed on the label is in the box. If that's 17, then there are 17 in the box. It's a really cool set, everything is free moving, and the ratchet works as well. It came out of a barn in Richmond, VA.
I'll take it!!!
Darn, beat me to it, mrchuck! I'd take it in a heartbeat! LOL Should have come on this morning when I was up at 3am. :cry:

Dang Oldtools, let me jump in and claim those goodies! Thanks !
I will PM you the shipping details.
Let me find something to post.
Brian
OK Redvice, the tools are yours, will send out ASAP!! enjoy...
A little late, but here we go... !
There are two V cut MAC wrenches, a little 3/8 x 5/16 Proto with a custom bend.
Annnnnd 2 very clean New Britain wrenches!
(Bought the 3 of them to get the 1/2 x 9/16!!)
Brian
Bump !
I'll take the wrenches! Pm sent with mailing info.
Stuff came today, Thanks RedVise I'll be putting them to work! I will get my stuff posted today or tomorrow.
OK, here's what I came up with: a herbrand 602 and a Billings 9/16 X 1/2 725B. I have no use for them anymore since I got a Mac to replace the Billings.

Sorry guys, Twertsy didn't get the tools, I gave it to Red vice... (no one wanted the Japan hex drive set) & Red vice gave to Junk-man already...
But Mr. Chuck got that nice 17 piece set from Twertsy, so I think MrChuck should have something posted...
OK with me. Glad I got online and read the mail.
I'll go to the shop and find something!
Did you find something mrchuck? I'm waiting on you to post before I post another round of stuff because no one wants my wrenches.
Pass me by this time. I just gave away a tool and 13 bucks on shipping.
So who did you give the tool to? so they can continue the "Exchange"...
I picked up an extra Andree Basin Wrench, its up for grabs so lets keep this going.

Dang! That's a nice one! I don't happen to need it, but I appreciate its beauty.
Did the momentum get lost on this thread?
When JessEm proposed this exchange, way back up there in his first post (two years ago!), he suggested the following rules:
Quote from: JessEm on August 26, 2013, 08:26:01 PM
The rules are simple. First person to reply "I'll take it" gets it. That person then pays it forward by offering something. And on it goes. The giver is responsible for shipping. If an item is unclaimed after 14 days, the giver must offer a new item. The idea is to keep the thread going...
All members are welcome to play. Just remember that when you take something, you have to give something!
I think this one's stalled because the last items posted didn't get takers. It'd be nice to see this one start up again.
To get this going again and to issue a challenge-
Here is a nesting set of Sherman Klove box end wrenches.
I am not sure what size is missing, if one really is. The pin seems to be correct since it is stepped, but the wing nut is probably not. When assembled, there seems to be room for one more wrench. The sizes I have are-
7/16 x 3/8
9/16 x 1/2
11/16 x 5/8
7/8 x 13/16
1" x 15/16
The challenge is to find out if there really is one missing, and to report if found.
Weighs 15 ounces, so it will be in a Flat Rate Box.

I'm in - I have been looking for more of those forever. And I havent ever seen the correct pin.
I'm going out to find something nice to try and compare with Papaw's offering.
Chilly
Alright! We'll get this back on track!
Should I post up something?
The exchange has been restarted with my offering and Chilly claimed it. He will offer something soon.
OK Everyone, sorry for the delay- I have been searching for the right things for the last few days, and I think I found some. I was also delayed in my search by a new grand-daughter born Wednesday. That's two in the last 6 weeks and a son's wedding! (Plus surgery last night, the kind I get every 12 weeks to put a block in my spine.) And I booked about a fifth of my years sales last week. I had a great week, but I am still catching up.
I opened Papaws package just now and here it is with the missing wrench: :grin:
(http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac6/chillylulu/Sept%202015/20150926_141745_zpsbnvdituk.jpg) (http://s880.photobucket.com/user/chillylulu/media/Sept%202015/20150926_141745_zpsbnvdituk.jpg.html)
It was perfect – I had most, but not the complete set. I didn't have the stepped bolt, and a couple of the wrenches had been over-used and had ripped open. I have an affinity for S-K tools and they are my personal users.
I will be posting at 8PM Mountain time zone tonight and I think it will go quick. One of my previous give-away exchanges took a while, but another only took a minute and a half. So that's 4 AM tomorrow (I think) for billman, 10PM for you out East, 9 PM for Central Timers, and 7PM on the west coast. Oldtools will be at 4PM in Honolulu.
I plan on offering a choice, with something for classic car tools, antique tools, woodworking tools, metalworking tools, classic power tools, and 6 inch and under tools – something from each forum except farm tools (but I may come up with something else for that, too!) I'll probably save the other items not chose for future sharing. There will be more in the box than what is shown, too. I know that one item will be tens of millions of years old and dead (it doesn't smell.)
Personal thoughts / rant:
I feel that this thread should be something more special than unloading the extra stuff you got in a lot of auction tools. Papaw set the example with the Sherman Klove auto-kit. I say – offer the best you can, if you can. Don't look at this as making a great score or trade – that's not the point. If anything it's a great opportunity to share a great deal that we didn't necessarily need – but couldn't pass up.
I'm not saying that you should spend money that you don't have or that you shouldn't jump in if you don't have something nice or interesting to offer. We've read comments from people who liked something but thought they couldn't participate if they couldn't reciprocate. If you see something you can use or that you like, go for it. Maybe after you think about it you could put together a little something, or maybe a grouping. Something hand made by other members is always nice to include. If you try to but can't think of anything to put up, let the forum know and someone will step up. If you don't want to put it out there in front of the whole group, PM Papaw or me or someone and they'll take care of it or find someone else who will. If you PM me, copy Papaw because I'm not always here as much as I would like to be.
There have been some really cool items (IMHO) that have sat for a while – and very rarely there have been some items offered that were a little less well thought out. Everyone take this in the spirit of fun and sharing it is meant for. This forum, somewhat anonymous as it is, is great for sharing thoughts, knowledge, insight, caring and friendship.

Chilly I'll take the Japanese Craftsman wrench set. I can give it a good home, and find something around here to put up in return.
All Right Okietools! PM me with your particulars and I'll get it boxed up & I'll PM you back with tracking info.
Chilly
Hey Okie Tools- Found anything yet?
Damn I love that punch set.

+1 It is nice. Really like that hand-made box. At least it looks home made out of galvanized.

Well, if it is home made, they re used the die holder, mine looks just like it. Fantastic tool. I love mine.
My bad guys sorry it took so long. Chilly PM me to let me know he is still putting my package together. Looking forward to that, and will post pics of it when it comes as I promised him I would.
Now for my offering, it is not much, but I hope someone wants it. It is a Proto Professional 5449 1/2 ratchet. I hope one of you guys would give it a nice home. I cleaned and lubed it, it's ready to go to work. Any takers.

Beautiful ratchet, Okie.
You did very good there.
Did it star in any of your videos?
Chilly
( BTW, so everyone knows - I took some time to fill the medium flat rate box. ( I try to take advantage of the shipping) I hope the wait was worth it....

Damn I love that punch set.
Maybe I'll use that the next time. Maybe I'll use it to sweeten the pot sometime.
I bought a new one 4 yrs ago from Rio Grande for ~$36 - the Whitney brand is tops in my use and this one is the best of the 3 I have gained since I bought the new one.
IMHO the prize lot was the pliers. Nobody makes them better than Lindstrom - I've bought new Lindstrom pliers and paid over $65 for the pair. They must think that they are pretty good, also.

Yeah, the pliers were the lot I was thinking about snapping up :P But, pliers are the one tool I abuse, and I would have destroyed them... Didn't seem right to do that to those.
Yes Chilly it was in one of my how to videos. Yes sir based off of what you have told me it will be well worth the wait.
Well got the package in the mail from Chilly yesterday. Chilly your generosity is fare to much Sir. I can not thank you enough. As promised pics of the goodies.

I originally selected the ten Japanese Craftsman SAE combo wrenches. But Chilly also sent me; five pliers, three vise grips, drill bit stand witch I already put some of my drill bits in, a international harvester socket, a Ace professional 3/8 ratchet, a Plomb wright field 3/8 ratchet, a neat socket wheel with handle, and two cool Geodes. Again thank you so much Chilly.
Are those geodes or fossils? They look like fossils to me.
Don't know if there a fossil Bill could be look like it don't they. but they are geodes I believe at least they look like it. chilly knows more about them.

They are ammonite fossils. An extinct Mollusc: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonoidea
Geodes are a geological formation of hollow rock shell with crystal formations lining the inside.
Twilight Fenrir right you are and i went back and it turns out that is what Chilly said they were to missed that I guess. I think the chambers through me off. They are cool.
Twilight is correct. They are two halves of an ammonite fossil that has been cut in two and polished.
They come from Morocco. My other hobby, that turned into a business, is rocks and minerals. It is also partly where my nic came from. My company is named Chill Zone Minerals (a metamorphic term I picked up in a college geology class.)

My daughter, at U Penn right now for her MS in Geology, would go bonkers for those. She's easy at Christmas, we just give her rocks!
Fossils, chambered nautilus to be exact. Not a geode.

Well if we are done talking about fossils, just kidding they are cool thanks again Chilly. My ratchet is still up for grabs, any takers.
Bump. Momentum seems to have gotten lost on this thread again.
Thanks Bill for the bump. Thought someone would have snatched my Proto rat right up, will see.
Well, if no one bites, maybe you should throw another tool in the ring.
I will take a look around see what I got.
So looked around, and found four Vlchek wrenches to offer. I don't collect much Vlchek tools, and I got these in a tool lot. So hoping they can go to someone who needs them to complete a set or so.
One is a WBH2022 11/16x5/8 DBE wrench. One is a WBC1214 7/16x3/8 DBE wrench. One is a 19/32x1/2 DOE wrench, and one is a WBE12 3/8 combo wrench.

Bump! Don't let a good project die!
Since there are more members here lately I thought I'd get this going again. First I'll take it & a PM to me gets it.
I have the following : Craftsman mini ignition wrench set + an SK Electrolite 1/4 x 5/16 DOE & mini spanner wrench.
