Estate sale two weeks ago. Collins Commander axe, Plumb hammer, Craftsman 1980's era 1/2 drive ratchet, -v- mark, bicycle chain repair tool, Stanley nail punch and center punch. ARTISAN punch, three tube cutters, a basin wrench, and a bunch of Craftsman sockets.  The average price per item, ignoring the sockets, was $1.50.

It was quite dirty, but I was able to make it presentable.  Well worth the $1 I paid for it.

Nice pick up. Which reminds me, I bought a basin wrench like that about ten years ago. I didn't have a specific need for it at the time, but it looked really cool, and I figured SURELY a useful application would come along sooner or later for such a unique tool.

A decade-plus later, it's still laying there in my toolbox, looking at me with hopeful eyes every time I open that drawer.  :P
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools

 :woohoo:

I've actually been studying up on cordless nailers lately,,, but man are they pricey! I just couldn't justify the price for the small wood projects that I have. Needless to say, I was super stocked to pick this one up at the flea market today for $40,,, and it even came with the bigger battery.

Today's estate sale buys.  Price was $1 for each item.  The aluminum folding ruler is a Lufkin.

$2 for this fine "grit" DMT stone. Tested it on this trapper that I got as part of a lot. First time I've been flea marketing in a while, so nothing crazy, but a good enough deal.

Nice diamond sharpener at a steal.  Trapper looks fine too.  Hard to beat a full sized trapper.  Best wishes.  Gary
