Road Trip Finds
2 road trips actually. One was to the Springfield, OH area's 2 Antique Malls...the other was after a doctor's visit...
Goodies from the first trip....and it wasn't a cheapy, either..
Attachment 516895
3 of the 4 items...
Attachment 516896
And these were the 4th..
Attachment 516897
These 2 were $23...the ring of dies was $10...and that Stanley No. 66 was $70....it does have a cutter ,and a fence.
The Square is a Stanley 4". The little block plane is from New Haven, CONN. Looks like a #102 size?
Because those dies are 3/4" in diameter..meant I needed a holder for them ( Amazon will deliver one tomorrow, BTW) so I went on a road trip, first to the Cardio Doctor...then to Menards..
Attachment 516898
No holder, but..this might come in handy...then back to Bellefontaine, OH. Checked Lowes...No holder, but..
Attachment 516899
4 boards...$5 each plus change..1/2" x 6" x 24" Project Lumber...from New Zealand, no less...
Checked the Farm Supply stores..nada...stopped in at Harbor Freight...no holder, but these were on sale..
Attachment 516900
$10.71, counting tax..
Was a LONG couple of days....Boss is now at my Daughter's house...and getting Home Health Care there..
Now IF anyone wants to see all the goodies I did NOT buy....at the 2 malls...be warned, there is a couple dozen pictures...
Teaser?

Nice scores! I'm particularly interested in the little block plane (I am from New Haven originally). Does it say Sargent on it? Or C.E. Jennings? They're the only metal plane manufacturers from New Haven that I can think of. But there was a lot of industry there and I haven't really looked into it. I do have an old slick and a framing chisel from the New Haven Edge Tool Company, but I've never heard that they made planes. Of course, lots of the companies made tools that were private labeled for other companies, so it gets a bit tangled.
Great scores!

His other booth was more for the Mechanics out there...I was looking at the top of a "Chestof Drawers"
Attachment 516930
Yes, all them drawers all full, BTW....then I looked down, in case there was a tripping hazard..
Attachment 516931
Then looked to the "entrance" of this booth..
Attachment 516932
Then turned the corner into the booth..
Attachment 516933
The one on the left is all sockets...the one on the right is all screwdrivers....Once inside this booth (watch out for that little stool)...
Attachment 516934
And turned to the right..this is the "backside" of that "Chest of Drawers"....and where the set of dies came from...just couldn't find the correct holder...
Their are 8 buildings/rooms in Heart of Ohio Antique Center...this was just one room...
Room #5?

Steven, I can't see the last set of pics you posted. The others showed just fine.

About once a month on this site, I go through this Photo BS....then I have to go back and re-load them...NOTHING has been changed on my end...seems to be a site problem.
-
I can see them now. Maybe it was just me. ?? I'd love to have some shops like that within a drive's distance from me. Thanks for letting me live vicariously through your rust hunt.
