Surprise!!
« on: September 03, 2019, 12:43:37 PM »
Hello, Just when I had made a little room here, I came home to find this stuff in my driveway. The large crate is from Porter Cable, the small crate is marked Netherland Syracuse ( local dairy). The brace is junk, also the larger Trimo, sadly it is cracked. The Williams S wrench is good, the Handyman plane could be saved, the 6" Trimo  is good, and I am guessing the sad irons are pretty common. The longer wood pane is rough, with no visible stamp. The shorter one may be a good local piece, T J M'Master & Co. Auburn NY , 2 stars in Emil Pollak's Guide to American Wooden Planes (rare).

Thanks for the replies!!! These came from the local scrapper that I have wheeled & dealed with in the past. (Bill, I know dealed is not a word, but it rhymed ) I did have to fork over a few bucks, now I need to find someone dumber than me to fork over a few more  :cheesy:
