Post by: keykeeper on September 15, 2012, 10:28:38 AM
Visited my ole' buddy Tool Man Bill at our local Trade Days flea market on Friday evening. This is what I came back with for $19 total.

-Straight handle hacksaw
-7" auto wrench
-Red Head egg beater drill (on left)
-Whiz auto wire stripper tool
-unused Toledo 101 pipe thread dies in 1/4 & 3/8 inch (still in original boxes!)
-Walden Worcester 1/2" flex tee wrench
-Utica small side cutters
-Fairmount body hammer head
-Vaughn and Bushnell small gas pliers
-various and other wrenches as pictured.

Feels good to get a nice score, after seeing some of the stuff you guys have been grabbing!!!

Edit: Added more photos of the 7" auto for Papaw!! Also pictured is the 6" pipe wrench I found the following day.

Wait til you guys see the little 6" pipe wrench I picked up today at another flea market!

Also got to talk a little with wvtools there, he always has some real nice stuff at his booth!
Came home with a REAL NICE blacksmith flatter tool from his wares.

Papaw- I'll get close ups of the 7" auto asap.

Heelspur- I'll make you a good deal on them....I don't even know a value to put on them. I planned on putting them online after I researched them more, but we can work a trade I'm sure!!

Added a couple more photos to the original post of the 7 inch auto wrench.

Also found these the following day at the French 500 flea market in Gallipolis, Ohio.

-Unknown 3 opening wrench w/screwdriver fold out on side.
-Boker USA side cutter pliers
-two sets of auto tool kit pliers, one McKaig-Hatch and one just marked Drop Forged
- Ford USA 01A-17017B M36 double offset box tractor wrench for the old N series tractors

Each were on the same table. Each cost me a buck. Love flea markets right now!!!

 Like that straight handle hacksaw. I have one I use frequently in preference to more modern ones. Was looking for one of those little Oxwall ratchets but found two recently.

Can always make room for another egg-beater drill. Good scores!
