Saw an ad in the WDT yesterday, a guy selling all his tools due to illness. Called today and after the rain let up, I went to see what he had. Not much in the way of tools but I did pick up a few things:
Starrett No. 12 ( 12" blade) with a center finder and protractor - 20.00 The square head was missing but I already have one I just recently purchased. As they say in the trade, "crispy" lol
3 ""C" clamps approx 5" opening probably medium duty - 6.00 ( Adjustable Clamp Co)
6" Craftsman square - 1.00 this is an old one, actually seems to have been made rather well.
Cross slide vise - 15.00 don't know the mfg. but it looks like it is made fairly well. I have a HF one and it looks like it is better made than it.
one of those halogen lights that has its own stand thingy 10.00.
Yea, I could have probably have haggled him down but I figured the starrett square was worth what I spent total so what the heck. He was a nice old gentleman.
I cleaned up the squares and disassembled , cleaned and painted the cross slide vise / b4 leaving work today. Just so it will be legal, I will take some pics tomorrow.
Not even gloating, just wanted to share my finds.
