Flea Market finds
« on: November 23, 2013, 06:59:58 PM »
After not bringing home 1 tool from vacation, I was able to hit the flea market this morning to try and make up for that! 
Found a couple of goodies and a surprise.

At the left, there is a beefy Irwin PH screwdriver, 1/4" superrench,  no name I couldnt pass up , small PLVMB DBE, INDESTRO 1/2 x 9/16 for my collection of same (turned out to be a dupe).
At the bottom is a Champion Plug Master II (New Britain) which some one attemped to straighten the handle on. Sounds like it just need a clean and lube to be a user.
Up on the right is a very clean Thorsen manifold wrench, stubby screwdriver,  unknown wood handle with brass ferrule, Klien and snappy wrenches, Hazet 2527 swivel.
Also picked up two plane bodies because they were cheap...

The Hazet is the surprise, looke like it will pay for a few other trips.

You did well, and quite an assortment too.  I found a twin to the Irwin this past summer.  The T handle HAZET is something I have not seen.  I like buying stuff on vacation, so long as it will fit in the truck.  BTDT

Nice group, Brian!

Is that Thorsen manifold wrench for sale or trade?
