Call me crazy but I really enjoy using vintage tools....they seem to speak to me (even when I'm up on my meds) and enhance the joy in whatever task I'm performing. I recently got a hammer saw set, an Atkens, that I've been wanting for several years. The ones I've found in the past have been so danged expensive I couldn't justify the purchase...but this one was $30 and it works like a charm. I'm soaking it in EvapoRust now and can't wait to clean it up & use it tomorrow. Several of my (too many) saws are needing a bit of set. You can see a couple saws I got (with other fine treasures) at our local SDFWA old tool swap meet. https://photos.app.goo.gl/YeJHouJnbdbQDz4w6

Also picked up another hand drill...just can't pass em up....and it sin really fine shape...gotta get some grunge off before I can identify it. Only discernible markings is No 85. I thought it was a millers falls #2, early version, but it may be something else. https://photos.app.goo.gl/MivRim7LhYwD4GBE9![[Image: iBmxQDeCVk7GFK9khhLjpibMYSwA4lHSADIjN2vdB5v]](https://www.amazon.com/photos/share/iBmxQDeCVk7GFK9khhLjpibMYSwA4lHSADIjN2vdB5v)
Anyone else got this problem?
