Estate sales last week end
« on: June 03, 2011, 01:20:05 PM »
Pic resizing is giving me fits, so will upload pics and post, if all is good, I will THEN add the comments.
OK, that worked!

After a long dry spell, I hit 2 estate sales and grabbed an interesting mix of tools.
1. small hammers, Lectrolite, Barcalo Buffalo (Pat187***?), brush with poor trademark stamp (dang!)
2. level,  sharpening stone (Carborundum Co.), soldering iron, plumb bob, wooden handle screwdrivers, fid (?)
3. roughly made S wrench with raised X7, small adjustable bit and the largest spiral I have seen, Wizard 40 tooth 1/4 ratchet , MAC extension sporting a SK socket
4. Crafty ball peen, small claw, Pexto brand Stilson, pliers
5. Bonney and Williams speeders, Channellock brake tool, Crusader square
6. Miller Falls egg beater, dont know, Plumb WF and a couple of Billings wrenches
7. adjustable and some pliers, small one is stamped Germany
8. Hinsdale box with a small adjustable, tire patch clamp, top tool has a collet for different inserts, wooden handle screwdriver and awl

Thanks Papaw!

I think it was a PICNIC problem...   I couldnt do the math  and keep uploading more than 800kb and would lose all my work.

Not a phillips, loose shaft, paint splattered, small piece missing off the handle but definitely old.

Vulcanizing clamp I believe is its proper name, repair on the side of the road

Dim, I am keeping the adjustable pliers, that gives me 5 of those little guys.
There's a Hinsdale socket in the box that does not fit any of the holes.
