What Is The Best Tool Score You Ever Got?

Hmmm, I can't top some of those. But...

There was the Nice SB 9A lathe for $100
And the SB Shaper for $50 - Basket case, but complete.
Possibly the $50 pallet of "Junk" that had a couple hundred brass 5C collets, 2 Sky-Hooks, dozens of lantern toolholders and lots more. At least $1500 worth.
Sherline CNC mills - 2 for $250
I'm probably forgetting some...
 
Hmmmmm, that might need a new home. But I smell scam, or a deliberate typo on the price. But won't hurt to check.:rolleyes:
 
If you need help to go get it let me know ;)

After being towed home I just spent half of yesterday and this morning putting a fuel pump in my rig, so I'm ready to go do something.
 
I have had a few ok deals, but i havent been looking that lng either.

My last best deal included 3 full size oxygen tanks and one full size ace tank.( One of each were full) 10 lbs of steel welding rod brazing rod mixed, 3 two stage harris regulators. An old welding cart, a pedistal dayton fan, giant ½inch self winding schrader hose reel, 16 inch bandsaw, and some other odds and ends i forget. Everything was $200 but i sold the empty oxygen tanks for $300 the first day i listed them. Those tanks are pricey otherwise and so are 16 bandsaws
 
I got this nearly unused HF 4x6 bandsaw for $50. (Picture is what it looked like off my truck). Needed a new blade (bought a $35 bimetal) and only a little TLC/adjustments and it worked perfectly. Much better on my arms
than the saws-all I had been using!

Wow, that's what I call a typo.

Didn't he read his own ad????? I always read mine over. Especially if I post it from my phone with the stupid predictive text correction.
 
Looked at a craigslist ad for a small lathe (Atlas 10" I passed on) but picked out lots of other tooling he kinda had for sale. Left with nothing, he called me back around a year later to give the stuff to me. He was moving and just wanted it gone.

Federal snap indicating micrometer
Starrett 1-2" tenths reading micrometer
Ideal tool test indicator
small and large V block
Lots of small endmills, three carbide
30, 45* angle blocks
Federal tenths dial indicator
and finally a sine plate and metric gauge blocks.
