steven newman Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 One of my favourite terms when looking through the yard sale ads.....BARN SALE! Ranks right up there with FREE Was striking out at a bunch of yard sales today...then found a Barn Sale. Spent a whopping $6 on just five items... Chisel needs a new handle. Not sure about the "handle" that wide bladed thing has a double bevel . Bowl gouge might need a bit of work. The price tag on that biggie thing say $5 A Mr. Arthur J. D'Leary & Sons of Chicago, ILL , USA Vise. I checked the screw on it....shines like new! Vise operates smoothly, almost like it just came of the store's shelf. These blew my allowance for the weekend. To bad, I could have spent a $100 in that barn.... Bottom end. Not too bad a morning, after all?

Larry Buskirk Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Dang Steve! Those post vises bring big $$$ around here. (Probably why I don't have one ) steven newman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven newman Posted July 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Gouge is a Greenlee 1/2" wide lathe chisel. Not quite sure on the two chisel like objects..yet As for the Blacksmith's Vise. Wat too big for the shop. May simply derust it a bit, and sell it on FeeBay. May need to find a box big enough to ship it, though....Should be able to get my $5 back...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Buskirk Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Steve, I'm sure you'll get your $5.00 back. I'm sure shipping it won't be cheap. Or maybe time for a bigger shop. Wait a minute.....You get an allowance? steven newman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Buskirk Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 Steve, I think you'll make your $5.00 back. Of course you have to deduct the FeeBay fees. steven newman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
