Title: Braggin on my Herbrand Tool Board
Post by: skipskip on May 07, 2012, 09:07:46 AM
Spent three days at a Vintage Auto swap meet peddling  old shop equip and parts room supplies.

On the last day I had a few minutes to look at the other vendors stuff.

I found a guy starting to pack this up

Nearly broke my wrist getting my wallet out.

It will need some serious  cleaning, but that's what winter is for :)


I haven't started to look up the numbers to see what came on it, but I bet someone here knows.

A very nice find that would be welcome at my place any day.  Congrats!

I'm hiding a set of Herbrand slip joint pliers if you find you need them for that board.

Nice find Skip! Is that orange paint or varnished wood?  Will the YUK wash off?

Skip,
I have a pretty big bunch of Herbrand tools. Been stockpiling them for a while. You don't want that old Herbrand tool board anyway, do ya? Why don't you send it here to me in Ohio, so I can reunite it with it's old pals, the tools themselves. I'll even pay the shipping. ;-) LOL.

Ok, so you're not sending me that cool tool board. Understood. So let me know what tools you need to fill it out.

By the way, are ya gonna tell us what it cost you? I'm all ready to apply that "YOU SUCK" award, as soon as we know.

Cheers!
