Decided on a bit of "Me Time" a while back....and drove down to Springfield, OH. to raid a couple places....One was "Heart of Ohio Antique Center" out in Harmony, OH. Cheap saw was $50? the other was $80..pass Red circled item..A Stanley No. 46....@$35? there was only 4 parts to it...no cutters, no front knob, no depth stops... Iron #7? $125 ? it was missing at least 2-3inches off the back end...and I did not need any woodies.. Passed on these 3..as well...already had a few IN my shop..however.. There WAS one I did NOT have in the shop... This is the "Fabled" Stanley No. 4-1/2c, type 11.....I knew about another in another stall...for $125! This one? Only $80....sold! Walking around to a few other stalls....One Rule: If'n it is in a LOCKED glass case... it is because it is priced way to high...talking gold plated, here....the "Complete Stanley No. 45? well the first of three numbers on the price tag was a 3..then a 4 then a 5...about 4 times what I paid for the one just like it. I did buy this 3 pc set of Plough plane irons...$15 seemed to be about right....walked around some more.. $3 for 3 Gimlet drills..one even goes into a brace drill...about shopped out at the first place...drove down to Titus Rd off of US 40...."Springfield Antiques" on the sign....LONG aisle to walk up and down...Found a drill.. Already have one...I think they want $35 for this one? Same stall... Same price, too...pass....in the center of this stall... Kind of a "grab bag"? There was an item... Not by North Bros., nor by Stanley..this is a Jordan, from Germany...and they never add a return spring...$4.. Total for today? $102 counting tax. Figured that will do for today. Did not need any of these....and.. These were above MY payscale.... Not too bad of a day...?
