Well, I'd say you have a good weekend or two worth of sorting!

Nice buy! You will have to update us on what you find in sorting.
And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

And another weekend of cleaning... and another weekend of researching... and another weekend of putting away.

Most all the cast wrenchs I already know what they are. There are about a dozen wooden handle adjustables in there. Around 25 different jacks, 2 cast iron COLLINS toolboxes, and just tons of other stuff...wrenchs, oil cans, wood planes. Ill keep everyone posted with some pictures.

Ive sorted most of the cast farm wrenchs. Only one that I would consider rare.  An F37 Sterling Mfg Co wrench. The rest are sorta common. But there are lots of them so I should be able to keep a few and make my money back on the rest.
