It was one of those weekends, burn $40 in fuel driving across the county looking for good yard and estate sales. As far as the eye could see nothing but pink plastic toys and clothing, Christmas decorations, and "collector" plates. In a desperate attempt to salvage the weekend I finally found something to spend a dollar on. I didn't go home empty handed so I count that as an (expensive and time consuming) win!

162 MALL-IRON CHAIN PLIER

Nice find!!

I was recently introduced to the usefulness of these pliers.  One can open and close the links of the chain that lamps hang on, without scarring the links.

Cool. Never seen them before.
