Sold one item. Giving this a bump back to the top of the list.

If I didn't already have everything you're selling, I'd jump on some of those. Your prices are more than fair, I think.

I'll comment on one of the tools: I've had that same dial caliper for many years and love it. I use it multiple times on every project I build. And here's the best part: I've never once had to change a battery.

Jim, if the dial caliper is still available I would like to buy it.

It is, and it's yours. Given your proximity do you want to swing by some time when you're out? I work from home, so I'm usually around. PM me and we can coordinate. Thanks.

Regarding @Bill Clemmons comment, I have three other calipers (hence the need to sell one). Two are dial and English measurements. The third is a battery unit that works in both metric and English. It only gets pulled out when I'm doing metal work and need the extra precision. Too much fuss to turn it on, make sure it's zero'd, set to inches, etc. The dial calipers are marked in 1/64", more than sufficient for woodworking, and stay within arms reach. They're always "on" and set correctly.

I will probably swing by on Monday…I’ll contact you on Monday morning and arrange a specific time.
