Hello fellow Creekers,
I'm not entirely sure that the following is gloatworthy, but i'm really excited about my finds...I guess that's really what it's all about. I snagged a Bailey no. 4c with beautiful Rosewood handle and knob...not quite sure about the BOB-JAC iron business, but hey. Next, I found the smoothest running eggbeater I've ever came across. I can't quite make out the brand...the crank has New York and Germany stamped on it, along with an arch of words that have been worn too much to decipher. Down the isle to the next cluster of tools, I spot a D-8??? rip saw with skewed back that was dead straight with a nice two-handed handle w/thumbhole and philida medallion. I'm really excited now...after seeing it priced at 3 dollars. What i find next nearly gives me a heart attack, because i've looked for one for years...that i could afford. yep, there is a god. I finally found a beautiful Disston Model 3D saw vise with a good tight cam. The final bill on everything...27.50. I just had to tell someone about this and my Significant Other hates when I bombard her with tool stuff. Thanks for being great listeners. Lol.
