Found a new favorite store
« on: March 07, 2012, 10:47:31 pm »
I found a new favorite store today.  A few days ago I noticed it opened up in an old empty building in the small town that I live close to.  What caught my attention was a mounted fox in the front window with a monkey on its back.  I stopped in today and checked it out.  It is kind of a second hand store.  There was a lot of antiques, DVD's, Albums and furniture.  He has a lot of old tools and some newer ones.  There was a 5 gallon bucket fool of files and rasps.  I dug through it hoping to find a #49 or #50.  He said some guy came and bought a bunch of the Nicholsons.  I picked out an old Craftsman coping saw that looked almost new.  I asked about drawknifes and he said he had two but they were both gone.  He mentioned that he was getting a big Grizzly bandsaw next week.  I told him to get used to seeing me becase I would be stopping in once a week to see what new stuff he has.  I can't wait to check out that Grizzly, to bad I can't afford it  :'(

Steve, I got an almost new 12" craftsman off of Craigslist last year dirt cheap so I really don't need it.  I will definitely check it out and try to get a picture of it.  I'm going to give the guy my number and have him call me if he gets any drawknifes in.


Cipriano, I take it you are a fan of Dion Sanders and the dog riding monkey  ;D

So now you just need to find out who is competin with you for tools! Any old copper soldering irons? I really have a love/hate relationship with those kinds of stores. Of the higher priced ones my dad says they like thier junk too much!

I would give him a $50 and a wink. Tell him to save all his rasps and draw kinives for you once a week to sort through.
