Hit over 30 today, the kid found a movie he’s been looking for and I got me two little finds only $2 for unused bits!

The fleamarket was  good to me today. In fact, I spent my $40 limit in the first row.

Picked these up today.

Today's estate sale buys.  Obstruction wrenches and Xcelite nut drivers.  All SAE sizes, but those two extra long drivers are special.  Westcraft Grip Loc pliers , Utica needle nose pliers, a Black Hawk 3/4 to 1/2 adapter, two 3 inch 1/4 Craftsman extensions.

I picked this toolbox lot up in an online auction. Fleet ratchet set, Tjorden pliers and wrenches, and many other odds and ends.

Dang, always a good find, I am so jealous! Like the universal wrenches haven’t seen them in a long time, what’s to the left of the electrical tape, is it a pocket tape measure, or a bicycle bell? Lol,,

I like the small size of the toolbox. Looking at its inventory, you could just about put it in a vehicle and be covered for most needs. Cool score!!

It is a West Germany measuring tape.  Unfortunately it is missing the first few inches and the mechanism is broken.  :(

No Rigid, They are Craftsman, Union Tools, and Fuller.  Nonextra cutters, but all three are slightly rusty, but look relatively unused.

The oil cans are quite nice.  The darker one may be brass.  The other is painted.  Totally unexpected find.  I had looked in that cabinet the day before and didn't see them.
