Braces, Clamps, Drill, Yard Sale Finds

[Ron Dudelston]

I stopped by a yard sale this morning and picked up 7 braces, 3 clamps, a Red Head eggbeater drill and a boxful of new Schlage hinges, handles and miscellaneous hardware for $30. The box of hardware isn't shown. All of the braces will be shipped to the country of Malawi where we have a missions group. The Malawi men are amazing carpenters and braces are very desirable.

Looks like you scored a nice find this morning!

Nice haul!

I'll bet those craftsmen will be tickled pink with their new tools.

Nice haul and I'll bet the recipients will be ecstatic.

 

[Ron Dudelston]

Sure hope so Gene.

That's a heck of a haul Ron, I know the third world loves those tools. When I was a kid we took down a ton of stuff just like this to the outskirts of Belize to give to carpenters that were building a school, they loved them all. And they knew how to use them!

They all look like 3 jaw chucks?

 

 

[Ron Dudelston]

Actually I think they are 2 jaw chucks.

I like that Red Head Egg Beater. Did you take the top off the handle and see if it had any bits in it?

@Ron Dudelston, are you still involved in this project for the Malawi workers?
