What Did You Buy Today?

got this today from Marketplace. it's begging for a repaint.

it came full of stuff but almost half of the bits are import, about 15% are new so no big score there. but what's 50 bucks these days.

this is cool though. old Starrett pin drill gauge. the bit in the hand drill is a #66 I just learned.

Post a couple of photos of the drawer slides from the side: we should be able to tell you how to release them (some are simple, others are a little more involved).

I was hoping it was going to be like my old snap-on (pre ball bearing) where you slide a metal strip between the slide and drawer but that didn't work. will take some pics this morning.

Good luck. I have some cabinets, one of them is different from the others and the drawers come out, but the 2, do not, not without a serious bending of the frames. They have punched dimples that do not retract and they grab the drawer solid. I have struggled to get them out, and just gave up. Don't know why companies make it one way.
