A Big Failed Tool Auction Tips 563 tubalcain

I always enjoy you going through your plunder. Even your “failures” are fun to watch. Thanks for sharing.

[@mrpete222]

lol thanks

[@danbreyfogle8486]

I have several of those paint stir sticks (AKA slide rule). I used to collect them for some dumb reason. I was one of those high school kids with a pocket protector 6 ball point pens and several mechanical pencils and a slide rule slung from my belt. I took great pride in my skills with that slide rule and was told, "as a draftsman you need to be well versed with a slide rule." I took it to heart as I went to a trade school to become a draftsman. By the way I was laughed out of the drafting room when I pulled out my slide rule!

[@mrpete222]

lol

[@StanErvin-yo9vl]

The slide rule is much easier to read with real eyeglasses.

[@TrevorDennis100]

I nearly jumped out of my chair when I saw the Hasler case, as I knew exactly what was going to be inside. I worked at the Ford UK Product Development site from a toolmaking apprentice to early retirement aged 54, and most of my time was in the Test Instrumentation department, and we used Haslers in the early days. For about half my time at Fords I worked in a small design team producing specialist test instruments, one of which used a laser to measure rotation and torsional vibration. This was a huge improvement on the thousand tooth encoders that had to be fitted to the front of a crankshaft, and what we used up until then. It was also a lot more convenient to use. Although this project was successful, we were not allowed to develop it at that time because the laser it used was considered dangerous. Nowadays you can buy laser speed readers for a song, and I bet some of them come from China. 'Chinesium' - I shall borrow that description when I get a chance.

[@mrpete222]

Thank you, that was interesting

[@Garth2011]

It was likely more of a worker compensation premiums concern with those lasers. Worried about a new tech and all of the safety police making up stories about risk.

[@StanErvin-yo9vl]

I must agree. Even as simple as setting up an auction and just put a bit of all things mixed together in two pound lots. Set a minimum and a cutoff date. Must be a silent auction. Sign a disclaimer. Larger things like that vise may be tricky. It's not that hard to find a standalone app to do it all.

[@joeclarke9782]

Win or fail at auctions I like your participation in them.

[@XILCNC]

I have an older Hasler tachometer, it is really neat how it winds it self up for next time during measurement. Not using mine very often but when I need it I am glad I don’t have one that I need to time myself.

[@mrpete222]

Yes

[@ggordon4127]

Mr.Pete I think it does belong there, they are a set. The # 3 chuck goes in the head stock the #100 in the tailstock to hold the armature ends. Atlas Manual of Lathe Operation and machinist tables, part 8 pg. 195 shows the two methods of mounting armatures. Good score.

[@mrpete222]

Thank you very much

[@bobrussell5743]

Hello Mr Pete,That is a fantastic collection of tooling... I wouldn't call that a failed auction at all...When I retired, many years ago I had a very large collection of taps, dies, end mills and reamers as well as starett measuring devices... Unfortunately at the time I was single and down sizing so I didn't believe I would ever use most of it so I donated it to my two apprentices and the guys and girls I worked with... watching your video brings back a lot of great memories... thank you so much...Bob

We used to cut double ended end mills in half all the time. Some of the mills have a draw rod that will hit a double ended end mill. Most will not fit in a solid end mill holder or the larger sized collets.

[@actionman862]

I was more than a little shocked when you said you would throw away those pieces of tool steel that had been ground a little. Surely on this channel you meet deserving young people getting into hobby machining that would love to have them.

[@chance1986]

You got some good stuff. I'm curious about the magnetos, and what their output looks like. The Jergens step block set looks good too, even made of Aluminum. AFAIK, Jergens is still a major manufacturer in the Cleveland area. Mostly fasteners and clamps, lock pins, I believe. Anyway, another good video.

[@mrpete222]

[@tropifiori]

Lyle, There is some background noise on the video that sounds like a 8 mm projector- which is cool. What a pile of stuff! I probably aught to clean up my shop. The way I drive the Mrs may need to arrange my sale any day now. I’d hate for people to see my piles of stuff! Frank

[@pmcgee003]

The armature chuck ... are they a pair? From a website "... that's exactly what they do. The bronze jaws act as an adjustable steady rest to allow accurate turning of brush rings and commutators on motors that do not have centres to use for the purpose. The front ring on the outer body of the chuck, is a locking ring. These were sold as a set, with the 'other' chuck looking much more like a drill chuck, with the difference that the jaws do not close up like a regular chuck (size range like 1/4" minimum, on a chuck body that would look like it should go right down to near zero)."

[@mrpete222]

Thanks

[@danedewaard8215]

I wonder how much stuff at the auction was purchased at an earlier auction, and so on! There could be stone axes for sale if you look hard enough!!!

[@jimc4731]

Jergens a Cleveland Ohio company. I had that set, it worked very well. The little 1"x1/8" blocks are risers in their own right or like adders to accommodate unique heights. Use the 1/8" blocks to clamp a 1/8" plate to the table. JIM

The two chucks are a Jacobs armature set. The MT3 steel jaw chuck goes in the headstock. The MT2 brass jaw chuck is actually a centering steady rest. This goes in the tailstock. Would be appropriate for a 10" Logan, SB, etc...

Been watching a lot of videos from the usual guys. TOT, abom, AVE, and many other machinists oriented videos. And I'm on a lot of groups. One name kept popping up that I didn't know. Mr. Pete! So I decided to look you up. I thought to myself "I think I know this guy from somewhere!" . But thats just crazy right? Watch some videos. Notice the auction addiction. Seen address on a video and realized you aren't all that far away. And also realized I've seen you at some auctions! Including this one! I bought that Camaro grill in footage! Was looking for hints of a certain monstrous auction I am certain you were at. Huge machine shop auction. Indiana Illinois border. 3 weekends and did make that big of dent in it. Then the virus shut it down. I went all 3 weekends.

[@Virxo182]

I've got an old V-4 Wisconsin on a Lincoln portable welder. It would be nice if one of those mags came from one (and it worked). The coil failed on the current one. It's been set up with an outside coil, but it's prone to problems, and it would be nice to not be dependent on a battery to run.

[@mrpete222]

😂 lol

[@georgedennison3338]

I HAVE seen them. The first time was about two hours ago, when I was going through a bucket of junk; bolts, weird machining cutters, and one cast aluminum step block! What size are you missing? The one I have is.... Damn, the top is broken off... I didn't notice it before. You wouldn't have wanted it, anyway. It's not a Gergens. It was made by Hilts. Wow, this is the day for you and I to be in sync... I bought an old chiropractor's table 6-7 years ago for ten bucks from a friend who owns a scrap yard. It is, essentially, a 6' long scissors jack made from ½" thick steel. I use it for lawn mowers, or other things, when I need to work on them. Saves my 66 year old knees and back. The table has a Dayton drum switch on it. First time I'd seen one was when I bought the table; haven't seen once since, until just now. The plastic slide rule was made by Dietzgen, but sold by National. National is/was like General Tools, who doesn't make anything, and has all the stuff made for them, in contract.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks That’s good information

[@georgedennison3338]

Do you have an eMail address I can send some photos to? I have a milling head, (I bought it as a milling head, anyway), and some machine tool stuff I was hoping to get your help identifying. I also have something you might want to use for your mysterious tool ID series. I mentioned some other items a few months back, but I found out one of them was a surgical device, for use closing veins, without damage, so I figured it wouldn't be relevant to your series, (I thought it was a GM produced Cleco specialty tool. It has a script 'Fisher', just like Fisher Body used! LOL). Thanks. GeoD

[@Aubreykun]

Possible there was a milling attachment for the lathe shoved in a different box? If it wasn't left on the lathe then the auction may have just mixed it in with plumbing supplies

I have several of that style tach. Jaquet (Basel) and Hasler (Bern) were the two big manufaturers, and most in the US were one or the other no matter what name is printed on the dial. Jaquet is still a current brand, but is now owned by TE. I don't know if any current Hasler (Hasler rail, for example) is the same company that made this tach, but the name doesn't show in a quick look in the industries index. The tachs are very reliable and very accurate. DO NOT try to open the case. Leave that to a watchmaker, since the mechanism is essentially a watch inside. Also, they really do not like to be subjected to overspeed. That looks like a later model.

I have a Hasler. very nice tool. It's interesting to see what you deem worthless. A piece of high speed steel that has plenty of life left in it is hard to find down here in south Texas. I'm glad you have enough stock up there to be picky... Down this way, we don't have that luxury. I've bought lots on ebay that were worse than that and considered it a boon. I look for tool auctions down here, but no joy so far. Maybe I need to vacation up north once in a while.... There are some large machine tools available here for the oilfield, but smaller, home workshop friendly sizes are hard to find locally. If you do, they are usually top dollar for questionable utility. Another "wish we had that down this way" video. Thanks for showing the treasure!! Good stuff!

Hot damn. Auction buys don't fail like they used ta. 😁

I still have that Sunstrand Center from the auction down here if you’re interested! 😂

[@mrpete222]

Probably not, but thank you very much

It's hard to kick those vises...........nice video Mr. Pete

[@mrpete222]

Yes

[@rennkafer13]

I don't know about in your area, Mr Pete, but around here those cutters are worth more than you paid for the entire lot.

[@mrpete222]

Thanks

[@bcbloc02]

You still got plenty of good stuff! Congrats to Dwight!

[@mrpete222]

Thanks

[@leilanala]

At least the both of you had a fun day!

[@mrpete222]

Yes

[@stevek5416]

I thought that you said a year or two ago that you were through going to auctions? Did the cure not take?

[@mrpete222]

I had a relapse

[@stevek5416]

Yeah, addiction can be a bear to kick on your own. Maybe you should start going to AA meetings - Auctions Anonymous!
