auction fun

[Bill Carey]

Went to an auction this am and spent 600 bucks:

The performax runs great; the wood includes some walnut, bass wood, mesquite, cherry, oak, ebony, locust; forstner pits, paddle bits, chisels, gimlets, a perfume atomizer bushing (can't have too many of those), and I had to get those dividers. All in all a pretty decent haul.

Can anybody tell me what that yellow and green thing is?

I think it looks like a circle cutting jig someone built for a bandsaw.

I'd agree with Mike on the Circle Cutting Jig--betting the holes in the arm to be 1/4" diameter. Nice set of dividers too, along with the wood. If you decide to sell the Performax, give me a shout--i've been watching for a reasonable deal on one close enough to pick up (I'm in La Porte County).

Thanks Johnny. Now I get it.

You did good! Looks like a quality auction with real woodworking tools and accessories. I haven’t seen one of those for a while around here.

Nice haul. I'm jealous of that sander...I'd love to find a "really good deal" on one of those at this point. I owed the larger version years ago, but after never using it, sold it off. Now...I have a need. Go figure.
