Found a few interesting items - DaveParkis - 04-25-2017
It's been a while since I posted about stuff I've found because I have cut waaay back on my rust hunting. That said, I decided to stop at a couple of random garage sales this past weekend and found a few things that I think are fairly uncommon for garage sale stuff. Here we go. First up is a Stanley 93 shoulder plane. In all the sales I've gone to over the years, I think this is the 3rd shoulder plane I've found. Needs a little cleaning, but that should be it.

Next are a couple of braces that I found. I asked the guy how much they were and he told me he had to get $0.50 each. I was only too happy to pay his asking price. The big one is a Pexto Samson 8016. First 16' brace I've found. I think the other is a Faye

This last one I almost felt guilty about. Got it from the same guy that had the shoulder plane. Its a Sargent VBM 407 corrugated. This and the shoulder plane cost me a total of $20.

That 407 is a real steal. They go for quite a bit more when you can find one!

Great finds! You still have the luck, even if you aren't exercising it as much these days.
That 16" brace is a rare one, but that 407 is an incredible find. Congrats.

"This last one I almost felt guilty about."
Don't beat yourself up over it..It's the seller's job to know what his stuff is worth..not your job to "educate" him....Unless he is a friend of yours...it's just "business".....

Am I the only one that gets excited over a 16" brace for fiddy cent?
That goes way beyond you suck! Maybe even you REALLY suck :-)

how long is the 407? Is it the same size as a Stanley no. 2?
