Pass Around 2018

This is what I have taken from the box

And here are the tools that I removed that I put in the box the last time I had it.

Don’t know what that stuff is that didn’t get taken except for the giant easy out , I think things that go in the box should be for hobby type machining not specially items for production type machines, that us hobby guys don’t have .
Looks like you took some useful tools out , hopefully useful tools go back in it.

I almost forgot to post a picture of these... I also took a 1/2" Hex Wrench and some bearing babbitt slugs.To whoever put the babbitt in there: I love you.

For some reason every time I have put stuff like that in there, They do not last long. IT has been ages since I did any bearings with it. It is almost like when I use to body work with the leading, Don't miss that.

What are babbitts for? I was curious what those were.

Babbitt is used to make a type of bearing

It's a Bearing that is cast in place.

Interesting. Ive never seen or heard of them before.

It was used on some of the older lathes etc instead of bronze bearings surfaces. I also use to have a set of bearing scrapers but they disappeared while I was in the desert years ago,

You're probably telling your age here. Auto engines used to have babbitt bearings waaaaayy back in the day.
