It’s fall festival time and the end of flea market season is near but it is my favorite time of the year to be out and about rooting around.  Not a lot of great or amazing finds of recent...more like parts and pieces mostly.  But, there is a pretty nice Bishop backsaw to add to my shop, NOS Stanley iron for a number 8, and a nearly new iron for a number 7, misc. other irons , scrapers and bits, and parts enough to complete an orphaned 71 so useful enough I guess!  The line wrenches will good for working on my kids fleet of not so new automobiles too!   The grab box of irons also included several that have given their whole lives to the cause!  The hunt is half the fun and time with family makes it extra good! I am 19 bucks lighter for it all. The big jointer is from a different hunt last year and was out for a separate adventure to the local public library but that’s another story!  Kinda pumped about that saw for a buck!

I have wanted them for awhile and picked them up for a buck a piece.  Not top shelf quality but shade tree great!

LOL...yup!  

Gave the backsaw a little love this pm.  No etches found so just cleaned the plate and spine, blued the spine, cleaned the bolts, light sanded the handle and waxed and oiled the whole works.  Still needs a good filing but have to dig out the magnifier if I’m going to have any success.  Soon to be a user in my shop.
