My sister just called to tell me a co-worker likes to bid on thrift store bins of goods on eBay.  She won a bunch of clothes including shoes.  Inside one shoe was a roll of $100 bills - $1,000 dollar worth!

I love U-haul storage auctions. You would not believe  the stuff you find
in the storage lockers. I got one for $5.00 and made over $3000.00 out
of it.

Good day today... The drill had a rusty stuck chuck that took all
of 5 min. to unstick. The battery even charged up. Works great.
It's not an XRP but it looks to be in pretty good shape.

Jack works good.

Next item I gotta do some research to find out what it even is.
I hoping that it's a VFD.

No such luck. It's just a soft start for a 50 hp motor.

You must be surrounded by wealthy people.  You wouldn't find stuff like that in the scrapyards around here.  However there is lots of raw material for fabricating steel.  You just can't get any of it.

loggah,

Just the pictures make me drool. It wouldn't do for me to actually sit on the thing.

BTW, didn't I see a thread on here somewhere where you have an old chainsaw collection?
Find something to do that interests you.

I do have an assortment of old chainsaws, a lot of them showed up at the junkyard.I don't remember what thread it was in tho! :embarassed:

I have a "Remington Logmaster" that's been hibernating in an old shed since 1978. That was the one and only time I ever heard it run. A man gave it to me when I moved here. After firing it once, I decided I'd get a new, small chainsaw for my firewood.

[edit to add:]
Found your chainsaw collection, loggah. I see a Remington Logmaster hanging from your rafters in one photo.

Might have to find a wandering mule to deliver this one to Kbeitz. He'd be powering that edger with it in a couple of days.

A visit to loggah's place is a treat.  We only stayed a few hours but could have easily spent several days, plus he now has another crawler.  :o I showed the picture to PatD and she said that it was just what he needed.  :D

I also have a small Chain saw collection... All from the junkyard.



 

I like this one the best. The carb rotates. So if you tilt the chainsaw on its
side to cut off a tree you need to turn the carb so the gas doesn't run out.

My grand father totally rebuilt a 1919 Clectrac and hauled it from Pittsburgh to Knox county Ohio in 1937 on the back of a Dodge ton and a half .I'd imagine at about 30 MPH if that .With that crawler and a team of big Belgians and a Farmall regular  they farmed about 120 acres which must have taken forever to get the crops out .Granddad bought that old crawler from a junk yard for next to nothing according to the story .
My dad was 17 years old at the time and told of that old crawler,slow as a snail but could pull a very long line of equipment behind it .With a front mount pulley it was a real chore lining it up to run something off the belt .

I got me another drill press last week at the yard. I don't know why.
I have 14 drill-presses now. All I had to do with this one was to put
on a new wire. It still worked with the old one but it was unsafe.
It was just to nice to see it get cut up for scrap. A few more presses
and I will have one for every size bit. I wont need to change bits.
