Only a single yard sale was open this morning ( was another, but they had been open all week) finally got to go out and look it over. Cardboard tray in the driveway. paper sign said $1 each.....picked through, found two items worth the effort to pick up. Paid my two bucks ,and went home...via Wallie World....
The items?
339980
That BIG saw is just a Worth No. 40....Butcher's saw. Might be of some use in the shop...
That little saw? Just might be worth the trip. Seems to be a Disston No. 7 Keyhole saw.....
339981
Medallion is flush with the surface, handle has NO cracks...seems complete. Blade even has an etch..
339982
Nothing real fancy, just a straight two lines of letters....."H Disston & Sons" Philada
Sorry, those are not split nuts.
339983
As for the Worth's bolts. They go through the very thick frame. Kind of domed on this side though. Both sets of teeth seem to be quite sharp. I might give the Disston's a fine tuning.
Not too bad a day...for $2?:D
