Estate Sale 6/8/2024

Estate sale buy,  the ratchet is a Craftsman 1/4 drive peat head ratchet with quick release button from 1981-83 (Type 7). The oil port on the top is something you don't see on more modern ratchets.  It came with 5 deep well sockets and parts of three sets of short sockets.  There were a couple of the really deep Craftman sockets in 1/2 drive along with a Snap-On deep socket.  The pruners include a Felco 2 and a vintage pair made in Italy.

Those little calipers are great tools.  At least the ones I have fit in the change pocket of my jeans for trips to the hardware store, to make sure I get the right size of whatever small thing I'm getting.

After picking up some Felco pruners some years back at a yard sale, I won't use any other brand.

I pick up any interesting or solidly made gardening tools, usually becaus they are inexpensive and once cleaned up make nice gifts to fellow gardeners .  I rarely see Felco pruners, but when I do I buy them if reasonably priced.
