They look in great shape in the pictures so im hoping it works out. The tools i got though are pretty nice. Some custom tools in there as well which ill just put aside in a box for a rainy day. Some neat radies tools were hand made as well and get this LABELED so i know the size without doing some measuring. Didnt have any boring bars yet so that was a plus and there is a few baby ones for small holes which is nice as well.
 
Today i did not plan to visit the tool market but need to buy couple things from the hardware store like V Belts but they did not have the size i needed, so i vent to the tool market there i found the belts also found few more things. First thing i found was this big door closer, should outlast the new china ones. Then i bought this heavily used makita cordless drill, it has a hummer and 3 speeds which is rare and still has more life in it. Then i found those crimping pliers, the seller know what he was selling so they are not cheap, so i had to make a package deal to bring the price down, i combine it with this new 3 phase contactor, i got fair price for both at the end, but i'm very pleased i don't have to solder new pins on fuel injector connectors those players are perfect for them.

That is rare to have 3 speeds on that Makita drill, I have that combo set (LCT-200 ,drill/driver) bought the kit 10 years ago and they still function like the day I bought them, my drill though only has 2 speed for hammer position.
The batteries are expensive but they last a long time.

Ken, yeah i did not give much attention on makita cordless drills, i liked bosch ones but at my full time job i'm building coaches, i use makita DDF483 8 hours everyday and have started to like them, the one i bought today is much stronger and better then the one i have at work.
 
Man I had a great week for tooling. Auction for tool company. I will say again that auction prices at least around here are stupid cheap.
I went after some fixtures for my surface grinder. This lot was by itself and I was happy to get it

Then when I was picking up the stuff I saw this sitting next to it which I found out didn’t get listed for some reason. Guy asked if I was interested. Said yes he said make offer I told him 100 bucks he said yours

Crappy thing was I’d rather have the suburban one. Oh well maybe sell the first one?
Then I got this was part of a larger lot but I saw it in the corner and wanted it. And all the reamers,cap screw bores,radius cutters, angle plates,parallels,and diamond grinding wheels were all icing on the cake. Paid 150 for lot I thought no I made out like a bandit. It’s a excello compound sine chuck42EE601A-1363-4913-9F38-1F279B414EDA.jpegA1726B2F-CC40-43F4-A554-076CB9FBA9DA.jpegB7A3C3C9-0097-4133-A862-B29057230A4A.jpeg2A98B275-C4FF-4B06-B6A5-7EE419124BD8.jpeg
I love machine auctions except for the fact that I am running out of storage for all this stuff.
