Estate sale buy 3/2/2024
« on: March 05, 2024, 09:13:45 PM »
Saturday's estate sale  buy. Eight American made clamps the 4 inch and 2 inch are Brink & Cotton.  The six three inch clamps are Adjustable brand made in Chicago. Gardening finds include the dibble and some rusty Wiss shears. Neatest finds in this lot are the blue 2-inch vise in the center of the photo and the folding yardstick on the upper left corner.  Center bottom of the photo is a Lectrolite Tru-Fit double open end wrench next to a Craftsman short double box end wrench.

That blue vise, yes. That and those clamps. I can't seem to have enough clamps. I'll have to look up about Brink & Cotton.
No matter how much you cut off, it's still too short

Thanks!  Brink & Cotton were located in Bridgeport,  Connecticut.   They were eventually bought out by Wilton.  They also made vises. Very solidly made clamps.
