had those 2 plus a craftsman that was like brand new and a ariens snotek which is there economy line. the snotek was given to my brother as payment for some work. but the guy thought his brother was going to steel it so he ripped the wires off the on/off switch and cut the spark plug wire in half. so we fixed that and decided to keep it as it was the newest of the 4, only drawback is no reverse.
I think I have the vice you want, it was my grandfathers the jaws are about 6" long and the handle is about 1" dia. and about a foot and a half long. it was all I could do to get it up on the bench. also ended up with his 1941 atlas 12" metal lathe with all the tools and accessories including the original owners manual. it need a new belt and you have to take the head stock apart to change the belt or use one of those adjustable belts. it's been sitting in my basement in boxes for a few years now hopefully I remember how to put it back together soon.
Cool, but you can’t let those things go to lr or anyone else for that matter. Awesome keepables….👍
King Salmon. Mud bugs are another unclean food I don’t eat…😉
Boy they don’t look in bad shape.
I was pissed when my dad gave away an anvil he had to a farrier. It weighed more than 200 lbs. Then my brother gave away his antique big vise after he died.
Yesterday sucked. We cleaned up in the rain last night and not long after it snowed like a blizzard. Only a few inches, but it drifted in some spots, and went down to 15 degrees so everything underneath is frozen solid. Going up to 35 tomorrow then Tuesday down to around 0 f. Only for a couple days, so that’s not bad.
No, keeping the last 50 issues of time magazine or hanging on to every cardboard box that comes into your possession is hoarding. Safe guarding grandpas tools to pass on to your grandson, that’s just cool….😎
Well, had he presented them to you then you’d be the hoarder 🤔
Definitely not here today. If you wore a t shirt here today it would be under a big jacket. Or it would be a very nippy day. Haha
It was delightful, usually hard to beat Ruth’s Chris and we wanted to hit it sense New Orleans is the first original restaurant. Off down the coast now the rest of the way. Be going through Biloxi, Gulf Port, may be in Gulf Shores for the night or Pensacola, not sure, have to take a ferry at one point so…….
I have an old buddy in Pascagoula. I worked with him on the rig. Was from Jamestown shipyards. Bill. Forgot his last name right now. He was my boss until he figured out I knew almost as much as him, he just collected his check after that. Haha
Small world, we drove through that town shortly before boarding the ferry in C’s Prius for a 30 minute trip across the bay to gulf shores….👍
