Weekend yard sale scores!!
« on: October 08, 2013, 06:20:06 PM »
Went to several yard sales on Saturday, Had fun & picked up some old tools; Drill driven plainer, craftsman oil filter  wrench W/swivel handle, 3 size square & hex wrench, sanding pad, old saw handle & blades, several drill bits, etc..  Also box of SS nuts & bolts, washers, etc.. All for $5. they just wanted to clear up the garage.  The plainer works good, just cleaned & oiled, mounted drill motor & cut wood..

The wrench looks like a seat wrench for faucets. Kinda hard to tell though.

yup! looks like a seat wrench to me also, in great shape, no dings, burrs, etc. 1/4" 9/32" 5/16" squares & Hex..
I like the Stanley saw handle that stores 3 reciprocating blades in the handle, and it folds like a pocket knife...
anyone know how old the cast iron saw handle is? U.S. Pat# 2016107...

I'd like to know the dates for this myself.  Got one years ago 'cause it looked nifty.  Don't think mine is marked Stanley, though.

Just a weathered light rust/WD40 mix patina.
