Estate Sale Buy - 2/15/2025
« on: February 17, 2025, 07:40:23 PM »
Saturday's estate sale buy.  Craftsman 11 inch F style adjustable (monkey) wrench (44491), Vise-Grip 7R  Craftsman chain pipe wrench.  Craftsman regular and deepwell sockets, a few Snap-On and New Britain sockets, two vintage church keys, a very rusty spoke shave, and a Swiss made Zyliss multi vise.
You might say I have a tool collecting problem....

Hello, Yadda . Nice haul! With all of that Craftsman stuff you found , I'm guessing the spokeshave is a Dunlap.

And indeed, I have a Dunlap shave that, if memory serves, looks very similar.  The loop handles would have saved a bit on the cost of the iron - even back then, value engineering was a thing, even if the term didn't exist.
