Ice cube trays!!! We had to take the woolly mammoth down to the lake and have her step on the ice, and then carry the chunks back to the cave. Kids these days. Mike

completely forgot, this came with that last lot of drill bits. or vice versa. don't really need it but will be fun to restore and sell, I guess.

These items came from a gentleman who is still living but in a nursing home. He is a long time member of Tuckahoe Steam and Gas Association. The family is cleaning out the house and getting it ready to sell, so we've been helping the family clean out the basement workshop and pulling out items that can be sold at the Tuckahoe summer auction. I was able to buy quite a few items from the family. He was into a lot of things, electronics, machining, Electric motors, ham radio, hit and miss engines, Etc. He was quite the "collector"!
