What Did You Buy Today?

Probably missing the "J"....

Does that mean you’ll be able to find something when I visit?

No ! But I'm getting better !

There were 5 lots of impression stamps and I won 4 with the min bid. Left a note with my number in the 5th box for that very reason. There's no way we didn't get a few of each others' stamps.

I bought some pallet racking.
3 uprights and 10 cross beams.
Enough to make 5 shelves 16'xL x 8'xH x 2' deep.
I will put them in the other stall of my garage, take the wooden ones apart and reuse the plywood decking on the new ones. I'll have the same amount of shelving for all my extraneous junk but more wall space in my shop area - which is what I really need - and a little more floor space.

Reasonably clean, 4-1/2” deep jaw “Kant-Twist” (maybe 2 in case I screw one up modifying it).

That one went by me a couple of times but I caught up to it in the end.

Picked up a metric mic, three custom anvil mics, and hopefully within the hour a blade mic, and by next week a very important piece of literature as well!

Found this live center tailstock offset on the bay this week. Manufactured by Bowers in the UK, this one is branded as Royal. Movement is tight but smooth. For its age it appears to have seen little if any use. Drizzled a little lightweight oil down the ways to purge some (if any) build up in it. I have a "less invested" version (made in India I think) that works well, but this unit addresses all of the shortcomings of the other. Precision, rigidity, appearance to name a few.

I like the level bubble & the clamping method.

And the blade mic is confirmed, as well as I just picked up a Quick Spot center punch as well in the last half hour
