That last saw is a good candidate to cut down to panel saw size.
RE: Rust Hunt weekend.... - bandit571 - 05-21-2017
Will be cutting it down to about 22" or so.
As for yesterday's sales...

Dollar each....North Brothers YANKEE No. 35 and a pair of drill bits for the brace. Bits seem to complete a set of these things..

The Yankee 35 has 6 patent dates...

Might have been a better day than the other one...
RE: Rust Hunt weekend.... - Admiral - 05-21-2017
As for me, this weekend yielded two braces, an 80 scraper, and a Type 6 ('88) #3 in fine shape.
RE: Rust Hunt weekend.... - bandit571 - 05-21-2017

[attachment=2524]
Sign on the tub said "Make offer.." "$4 ?" Ok. Added two other itemd to the tub, and added $2 more....
Add-ons were a pair of Carpenter Nippers, and a Needle-nose pair of Visegrips.

And, buried down in the bottom, there was a set of "Laser-etched" sockets, and an APEX 19mm Wobble socket for an impact gun.

Day one is done...two more to go....
RE: Rust Hunt weekend.... - bandit571 - 06-01-2017
Chalk box is from Strait-Line, even has the hook on the end of the string
Blue tape measure was "Made in China" will be a "loaner"..
Some of the diagonal cutters need new rubber grips.....might just get black plastic tape, instead.
Nippers MIGHT be by Krauter? 8", has a nail puller and a screwdriver tipped handles.
Needle nosed visegrips are by Crescent.
Still sorting through and putting stuff away.

I have a hard time resisting box lots. The best thing I learned to do was to keep an open medium sized USPS flat rate box in the shop. Whenever a new box lot of junk comes home with me I try to sort through it that day and anything not worth bothering with gets tossed in the flat rate box. When the box gets full it gets put up on eBay and sells for whatever it goes for. Usually don't get much out of them but it doesn't go in the trash and it gets out of my shop.

There's always your local ReStore/thrift store, too.
