Tool Score

Here's what $20 bought at a yard sale today. Starrett dial indicator with all the parts and pieces, magnetic base for same and 18" Craftsman 1/2 drive extension. Already played with the gauge and found that my tablesaw blade is warped .004 for about 10 degrees of travel.

Re: Tool Score

Old tools are like old trucks very cool and worth saving.

You know some old timer had that set and used it and took care of it like it was gold. When I lost my pops a few years ago, the only thing I wanted was his old tools, before someone got a hold of them and sold them at a yard sale for 20.00 bucks.

Nice find.
