Morning trip, before it gets too hot and sticky (stinky?) outside....spent $10, and a 10 minute drive each way.    Feeding Frenzy when we got there...LONG gravel lane back to the place.   One shed had fishing supplies, house had antiques.  In front of the house was the usual clothes, shoes, and hats.   Mainly Hunting and fishing gear.    There was a line-up out in the yard, of snowblowers, mowers, and other wheeled objects ....then there was a table and a second shed.....

Tub on the table. Another full of wrenches, and full of pliers, another full of screwdrivers....as for the shed..

Mainly a LOT of power tools.   Lots of Mechanic's stuff...but, there was 6 items I cleared off..

6" (3) 12"(1) and a pair of 18" clamps

Not too bad of a morning?

As for those rusty bits....found a 3/8" drive extension, to hold the bit, then used the wire wheel on the grinder....

Seemed to clean up nicely...

BTW:  That sale is supposed to go on through tomorrow.   US 68 N.   1/2 way between CR 37, and St Rt 274...be on the west side of the road.  Starts at 0900....

As for the clamps? Already sitting in the "clamp rack"

Waiting for work..

I figured I saved over $20....not too bad of a deal?

Another weekend, another Estate Sale raided...

Spent $18 this time around....mostly on one jack plane....and..I turned down a "whale tail" #3....

But, for some reason..was unable to set this back down onto the table....maybe it was the labels?

Or, that nothing was missing or broken...price?

Will know more, once I get it cleaned up.   Was needing a few smaller c clamps...

About 2-1/2" ones...@ 2 for a dollar?   Which leaves the last dollar bill of the morning..

Disston & Sons, 28" long, 5-1/2ppi, thumbhole handled rip saw....the "8" is inside the "D" in the readable etch....etch dates this as before 1917. 

Spent $1 for it.   yes, I was wearing my mask this IS Ohio, after all...

Not too bad of a morning?

Nice haul Steve! 

I even wear my mask "Curb Shopping" 

Except mine makes me look like an "Old Time Stagecoach Robber" 

Well....clamps have been cleaned up

 

Bottom 2 are marked as "Unbreakable"...seems the old guy had been using these near a welder...lots of spatter to grind off.

 

As for the Jack plane?

Need to work on the handles, yet...and sharpen the iron.   everything else has been cleaned up....may do a thread about this rehab....

IF anyone wants to read along....

 

Haven't started on the saw....yet....getting the "easy stuff" done first....

As always I am all eyes on.  

Right now, I am trying to get a bunch of wooden parts milled up into a box...2 hours so far today in the shop...will see how the day goes....once the bench is cleared, I can start on that Jack plane rehab.....I hope.

I love the look of the thumb hole saws and have cleaned up a few.   That should Clean up to be a nice one. Handle looks great!

Hmmm..ve haft verk to do...

I don't think this is what they mean by a "Toothed" iron....more like a Snaggletooth....might take longer than the usual 15 minutes..

Jack plane is done, and being put to work...

Along with it's older brother..Sargent #414c.

 

IF I can get this wooden box done, and off the bench..

I can start on rehabbing the Disston D8 Rip saw....

 

Waiting on paint  to dry...decided to clean up that old rip saw..

Brass was removed, and polished up.  Handle was removed..paint splats scraped off, 220 grit to LIGHTLY sand the good areas.  Load up a paint brush with 3in1 oil...and give the wood a good rub down...

 

Saw plate:  Fresh squares of 220 grit for the sander..one to remove the rust and crud, second to clean up after the first...then do the other side the same way.   Then a square of 2,000 grit paper on the sander..and polish up the steel...

Photos...?

Stamped as a 5-1/2 ppi..

Tried to match how Disston had "clocked" the slots..

Tooth line has a slight curve to it (breasted?)   Saw is a LONG one, compared to the 26" D-115 I have..

D8 is 28" of very big teeth. Test drive?

About 8 strokes...a little operator error was seen..

Was at a bad angle to run the saw in...saw starts easy enough, cuts FAST ( don't get your finger in it's way)

$1 saw...just might be a keeper..
