September 4, 201510 yr I did a little pickin' today. There was a gentleman that was clearing out his father's estate and his dad was a carpenter. I literally had to refrain myself from going up the street to the ATM and I may even hit the sale later tomorrow to see what is left. He had a fairly new Jet shaper and was asking $300. Since my wife was with me I didn't offer $250 for fear that he'd take it but there's always tomorrow. If it is still there I may stash a couple of Franklins in my pocket and see if that will get it bought. I did buy a set of three scrapers for $3 bucks from him. On the other side of town (small town by the way) I grabbed a 14.4 volt dewalt with good strong batteries for $10 and I bought this cool Irwin box with three bits in it for $5. The guy wouldn't come down at all and the box was just too cool to pass up. One sale had a 4 ft and a 6 ft level and a 4 ft drywall square for a buck each but I really didn't need duplicates.
