And a strange man came up and gifted to me the old folder at the bottom  :o  :o   :o
Turns out he's a sound bloke  :hatsoff:

Top one is a BAK with a broken back spring (no surprise there  ::) )
And the middle is a Sandvik locking pruner

I was surprised and luckily I had some cash on me  :tu:

The very dry (and smelling like cattle  :ahhh ) leather pouch in the first picture is an old 'Klein Tools 5127T Leather 6-Pocket Tool Pouch'  :D


And the 12" 30cm rule is made by Rabone Chesterman   :tu:

That dry old pouch now looks like this after some leather feed and a good coat of handle wax  :tu:

Today...

A scroll saw
A Black and decker 'mouse' sander
A (another) hot air gun
8" Fit Pliers Germany
A very used Wenger Delmont something SAK



Which would have been a good haul but...
The sander spits sparks,  :ahhh the motor is on the way out
The scroll saw isn't working,  :bnghd: still looking at that one
The pliers are not too bad  :tu:

The scroll saw looks realatively new.  The issue may be quite simple one you start checking. The mouse sanderon the other hand may be a lost cause.

Nice finds Tony.

Is that a grind stone dressing tool next to the 2 tape measures?


I went car boot hunting yesterday and picked up a tin of 10 dewalt 4 1/2" cutting discs for 2 quid.  Just a shame I bought some cutting discs from screwfix the day before.  I'm sure they will come in handy sometime though.

Yes it is, I didn't have one of those before

Keep the cutting discs dry and they will keep,  :tu:  that's typical though  ::)   :D
