Another Old MachinistTool Auction Tips 493 tubalcain

hello once again - peach your YouTube shop teacher it's a Monday morning it's raining outside so he won't hear Tommy Moines and it's quiet and peaceful but the purpose of this video is that I did go to yet another auction over the weekend and if you think this is a bragging session turn it off right now please rather and I know I've already got some thumbs down people do that right away we call them trolls and there's no shortage of them but indeed I was number 53 yesterday or two days ago and I didn't buy a whole lot I got one tray of machinist tools and we're gonna go through that here in just a minute and there are a few rusty items in this container so I will be doing some rust removal in this video so it'll be a three day video the introduction here being real short I have done a lot of rust removal over the years some people have said to me once you do a rostrum oh I have 13 or 14 videos on that I'll show you the link and the playlist for that here in just a second yes there are 14 videos on rust removal and there is a playlist and if I remember up with the link down in the description and maybe here on the screen so check some of those out because I'm not going to go into a great detail on this rust removal it's done in these other videos and I'm gonna use a evapo rust or evapo rust whatever it is on this I've used it many times and it is a good product believe it or not is not a fantasy like many things that you buy in a can a 95 year old man has passed away and it was his auction there were a lot of people there because there were many many automotive items antique automotive items and that brings people from hundreds of miles away so bidding was pretty hot hard and heavy but I did buy 500 pounds of worth books and magazines and manuals I just love old paperwork a lot of it was damaged either by water or my sand and mildew and so on but there are a lot of car manuals and trained books he really liked trains steam locomotives and things like that so a lot of old magazines I love to take magazines with me when I'm traveling and then I immediately throw them away after I read them because they have no value this most of this I bought for one dollar a container and I've already thrown over half of it away and I left a great deal of it on the auction wagon where other people immediately attacked it like vultures thinking they were gonna find something good and I I lost a few items I left them on the rack I guess there was it was such a scramble near the end I told you it was raining but it led up here just a little bit I bought these two transmissions they're identical does anybody know what kind of car they're out of it's a floor shift of course so the reason I bought these is as follows you know I'm not sure I'll ever get around to it but remember I bought this or I was given this Powermatic 14-inch saw that I would like to convert into metal cutting and I know those transmissions are big and awkward but I've been struggling with all kinds of devices to try to slow these saws down and if I could use one of these transmissions or a portion of it it would be a rugged way to reduce the speed running and I suppose and either reverse or first gear and do the transmissions work I don't know all right enough on that let's get back to the precision tools and by the way I know I keep getting sidetracked here but there were two hit and miss engines that sold at that auction as well as a big old lathe maybe I'll put pictures of those on here big ol lathe went for scrap metal because you know you couldn't have given it to me but the miss engines went pretty high but I have three hit and miss engines now I'm gonna do a video on this don't watch it if you don't like this old stuff and showing how these run and but I already did something on Instagram and I mentioned I think I'm gonna sell these and they sold instantly just on those few words and who bought them and already sent me the money and is going to come here to pick them up in a few months none other than my buddy and one of the most famous youtubers of all Jimmy direst ah maybe I got a picture of Mike and adhered to the video I've met him several times he is a wonderful creator and an artist and a wonderful man beloved by all who know him and watch him Oh this man was a machinist for the great Vactor company and it had other names before it was a vector and there weren't a whole lot of machinist tools I think probably the family took some of them but I have shown the wooden toolbox maybe I'll show you a clip of that here too that these tools came out of but they're primarily calipers do I need any calipers no I got a million of them but let's go through this stuff I keep saying that all right now I really am going to go through it they sold this wooden tool chest and the tools that I bought came out of this chest it was not in that good of shape it is not a Gerstner there's another picture of it the mirror is broken or missing and there's the decal and the brand is star out of Chicago I am not familiar with it and now I'm going to show you a short video that I took at the auction live on my phone it's not very good but here is the selling of that star I'm not sure if you heard that but it sold for one hundred and eighty dollars you think that is too much or is that reasonable I would have given 40 this surface gage I had trouble finding the market here but it is a Miller's false I didn't know Miller's Falls offered something like this but it's in pretty good shape these little pins work I did put some oil on them already but it is relatively crude compared to a Stewart look at the machining marks on the end not that that has any effect on its performance but it's nice to have one of these in a larger size and luckily the scriber and all the parts are included quite often there are things missing there is an extra one of these I wonder if it fits it does so that must that must belong with it like I said a bunch of calipers and some of these are rusty or corroded and those will be laid aside here already I have absconded with one of my wife's shoe boxes you know she does the Franklin Graham a shoe box program so there's a lot of these shoe boxes around the house anything I'm gonna do rust I will put in there here is a nice violet that's got to go in the shoe box too a nice brown and sharp V block along with the clamp but there's only one of them usually they're sold in a pair now where you lose in a pair that goes in the shoe box here I don't like these wing dividers one bit and I don't know what the name is I never that'll go in a shoe box but let's look at some of the nicer tools here there are a bunch of dividers this one being I got to get my glasses on here that's a Lufkin and the points look good that's about a six inch or there's a four inch craftsman in pretty good shape I do like this those points they're easy to sharpen here is an 8-inch Brown & Sharpe hermaphrodite caliper pretty good shape now something like that does not need to be put in a vapor rust but perhaps just a little bit of touching up with steel will I'll put that with the calipers here let me dig through here real quickly there's another rusty one for the shoebox here's like a bevel square I think this is just a piece of junk but that'll go in there people get mad when I say Joan I'm not sure why I don't know why that craftsman label is is in there it's miss metal does anybody know what year they used this logo it was a range of years for craftsman Sears alright now there's some nice calipers here this is I thought I saw the name on it that's Stewart and that is a six inch sure here's another starett I believe and there are no owner's names on these I don't believe and this must be a 8 inch here's a browning sharp tool makers clamp that will get D rusted and that's a for insure user there are in pairs but there's only one of those now these two Center heads here have no name on them they are not stare at they are not brown and sharp I don't know why there's two of them I believe they are probably Miller's false that's just a guess further about useless there are five Walton tapped extractors four broken taps and you know what there's only one of them that is is ruined that's really surprising you know I'm not a big fan of these we've talked about that many times but there's some bent fingers on this little and I think the the smaller ones were expected to be expendable here's a wiggler and a smart Union Tool Company in pretty good shape and there's an extra point for it but what surprises me here I've never seen one of these where it has the ball and the point in one piece unless that ball was added on but I doubt it because that would be kind of a tricky thing to do but there you got one point and that serves two purposes for edge finding that is I think you all know what these are or do you this is a wiggler it sounds like a horror movie doesn't it I'm not sure what this is I recognize it but it's a portion of something I don't know do you know here are two inside calipers you know I I really never use an inside caliper to you but there's a 4-inch er and that's from the general company but it's it's pretty nicely made they didn't make their own tools I'm sure and here's a six-inch er and this is brown and sharp and the points are in good shape I don't think there's any denying that these smaller starett outside calipers are a thing of beauty a work of art and that is about a two and a half inch sir it's just gorgeous and it's curved and here is the companion and a much larger that's a 6-inch er and I'm pretty sure it says starett no that's Union which means they were buying it from stearic don't you think and just putting their name on it and there's another one also with the general name on it maybe they decide now these flat ones to me aren't as pretty and this is a craftsman now craftsman also would have been made by a major company but they changed supplier that's a 4-inch er and this one also is a craftsman and that is eight inch by the way you measure these from the center of that pivot point to the end which you can see is 8 inch caliper also included the in the Box a well used Kenna metal manual one of these this is really a good book I have several of these kind of dirty this one is I don't know no it's not readable seems to me these are our novelty anyway stare at that's pretty well shot oh this is interesting because this is the name of the company he worked for Myers Sherman I knew mr. Myers I met him once this later became vector it is vector right now if you've ever heard of a big vector sewer cleaning machine mr. Meyer si si Robert Myers did all of the printing there the manuals and everything and that was his passion the night our Industrial Arts Club visited that plant he was an amazing man but he was at that time he was more interested in printing then they made milking machines and grain vectors and all kinds of things back then but now it's strictly vector some of those Scully Jones an Arras notebook how to do certain things in the factory how to set up certain machinery so this is kind of interesting he had very detailed notes in all of those books he loved trains and cars and trucks and all that there's some shim stock and that pretty much completes in this box except for the mouse turds I won't show you those well some of them are in there okay what do you think I paid for this job lot of precision tools at the end of the video I will show you the auction ticket I know some of you gonna say that oh you stole those and other was gonna say you paid way too much for a bunch of junk but I didn't get them all that cheap there was another man there that I know that he was a bit bidding and he always does bid on anything that's starett or brown and sharp all right let's go down to the basement shop and pour some evapo rust on this I paid $15 for this a few years ago and I think it's got about this much in it so I'm gonna go ahead and pour it into the shoebox here I took this out I'm gonna do that later in a vertical container where it doesn't take so much of this a vapor Russ and I think I can use it over and over I don't know why I say well vapor rust it's that ball Russ Eve Apple rust I guess I don't know it's taking more than I would have thought all right I'll see you tomorrow good morning it's been 24 hours as I came down on the basement steps I could smell this but it's not all that unpleasant but it does have a bit of an older now it emitted Li last night before I went to bed I did check these out and I gave them a once-over with the scotch-brite and they are looking pretty good I'm gonna do just a little bit more now I'm probably not on camera but also with a brass brush so I can get around some of these parts like this pivot here I do not like the color that you get with evapo rust it's kind of a matte almost looks like it's been sandblasted but of course it hasn't been we still got some black staining so let me clean up a few of these then I'll get back to you it's kind of messy but it's not that unpleasant to get that on your hands I don't know if it hurts enough I don't worry about it at my age this let me see what brand this is get my glasses on here I sure can't read that it's a ten-inch Newark New Jersey whatever it is wing dividers like I said I don't like these no I've only finished two so far but my technique after I take it out of the evapo rust and I take it over to the sink and I run the hot water over it that'll take the chemical off and then it's hot enough to where the water dries real quickly so then I wipe it down with a towel and then I am using wd-40 again wd-40 most of the free world does not know that it stands for water displacement formula for tea they did 39 that didn't work and 40 did it is really not that much of a lubricant but that'll take the water out of these joints and then looking at this one there is an owner's initials there and you can't read it here but it's made by Union tool then I wiped them off it's most of the wd-40 off and then I'll put some typically stare at oil on them and you want to do that right away before you get any flash rust that I suppose could happen I'm not real sure you know so that one is now done but boy is it stiff and I did try to loosen this screw up and I'll work a little more on that but I don't want to bugger it all up so that one's done and similarly this one is done so I'll go ahead and do the rest of them that are in here and then get back to you after they're oiled well let me let me look at this one first of all this is that Brown & Sharpe Vblock and looking at this I was kind of surprised that someone has drilled into it it's not in good shape at all I would have thought that it was harder than that and could not be really penetrated but that is not hard and I do have again this which had no rust on it I didn't treat this I just washed it off real well yeah this doesn't look like a quality product even though it's a brown and sharp because you can see all the machining marks on it rather than grinding marks and it's pitted I still got it upside down okay I've wasted enough time on this and I do mean wasted I do not like the finish that you get it's just like I just said a few minutes ago almost like it's been sandblasted it did not remove any of the staining but I suppose I didn't expect that it's supposed to remove rust not stain so there's all kinds of stains and well actually quite a bit of pitting right here still a usable clamp but not good looking and really you need those in Paris this is scrap iron I can find no name on it and it's badly badly pitted probably a tool I would never use anyway and again the stains and let's see this one came out pretty nice it's a union where is it oh I showed you that one alright I guess it's this one yeah Union haven't been made in many years kind of stiff kind of incredibly stiff as is this one I'll see if I can free them up off camera but I'm I'm really losing interest real quickly on this now here's another one and I can't find the name on it because of the pitting very deep pits this is a very old tool but these all freed up okay and it moves freely compared to the other two but that's that's real ugly it's one grade-a Bob scrap iron that I show it already well that concludes this video on what I found at that auction I still got a oil lizard clean up a little bit and I'm gonna try to salvage the rest of that you've Apple rust even though it's dirty I am gonna put it back in a can because it's kind of expensive yeah but I'll strain it so I don't get any of the particle matter but here's what would you say this whole pile is worth 20 bucks this side problem I do like I'll probably keep it's a good working V block because it's already badly damaged by drilling so you know it wouldn't hurt to use it just as a rough clamp and this I will say if I don't have a whole lot of the machinist clamps but I think this is a group that you know you'll probably find on eBay sooner or later again thanks for watching see you next time I'm going to show you a few still pictures from the auction and that's all I took and here is the way the tools looked the machinist tool there was only three or four trays of them that is the box that I bought there's a close-up of it and this box of high speed steel is worth two dollars and is sold for 25 I did not bid on a friend of mine was there and wanted to bid on it I bid on this box and was outbid I don't care two hoots about all the feeler gauges but there was a beautiful little stare at die makers square right there that I wanted although I already have one I did bid on this box as well and was outbid a friend of mine bid and one of this box there was a couple indicators in there one was a federal indicator and it was marked Studebaker aircraft division I thought that was interesting as promised this is the auction ticket and I paid $40 for this job lot of CalPERS [Music] you
