That brought these small items home
312609
bundle of saws for two dollars, and the box of toys for 8 bucks
312610
Biggie plane was 6 bucks, but they threw in the Razor plane. Chisels were a buck each. Got the package home, first thing...that Great Neck Tool Box saw was thrown out. The other three? One was a Disston National Hardware Special. The next one needed a bit of clean up, so
312611
8ppi shorty saw, according to the etch it is a Columbian Brand. Yep there is an etch, takes up most of the blade
312612
Them's rivets holding the plate on the handle. The fourth saw needed a repair to the handle, and a screw removed, too, found enough brass bolts for it
312613
Brass is now shiny, again. Bolts are even "clocked"
312614
Will need to sharpen it up, a bit. As for the box of toys. The Razor Plane is from Little Giant. Oval shaped, and still had a Wilkinson blade in it. I guess I can fair curves with it? The bigger plane?
312615
Great Neck made Corsair C-4 Them's wood handles on there. Iron was sitting bevel up, with the chipbreaker ON the bevel. Will sharpen it up, later. Might even get a shaving to appear. The two chisels? Need a bit of time on the stones. The 1/2" one has "Drop Forged" stamped in it. Labels have a blue and silver logo.
Ten dollars on a road trip? Spent three times that for lunch. Turned down a few items with cords sticking out of them, too. Didn't even rain any, not too bad day?:D
