NOOB here from New Mexico
« on: August 05, 2012, 04:56:59 PM »
Came across this site and so far have had a great time looking at the posts, coming from a long line of craftsmen I have stumbled across a United States Industries Shop Chief, I had no idea how it worked or what it was. My friend passed away a couple of years ago and we were going through the shed and ran across it.  Is there a market for it? It looks like new and I am sure he used it at some point.  If requested I will post Pics, just trying to figure out what it is worth for his widow.  PM me or post if you have an idea or want to purchase it.

Wonder if Moose has found out anything more about his?
Just a weathered light rust/WD40 mix patina.

I used to hang my hat in Belen, just south of Albuquerque.
