Whew, what a relief. When I saw the video title I though you were selling all your stuff hah! Happy to inform you that I was just in Wisconsin a couple of weeks ago and they're still funding high school trade classes. They're also encouraging students to participate. Go Wisconsin!! My wood shop teacher, Mr. Shriver, was one of the few teachers that would not only help you in class but also wanted to know what you were up to out of class. It wasn't to be nosy, he was just trying to keep all of us busy in the garage at home and out of trouble. He'd also let you know when he was at school on the weekend and let you come in to work on projects. My mom still has the first laminated cutting board I made. I have a feeling you were probably a lot like him. Just a cool guy. I also had an excellent photography teacher. I rolled and developed my own film, stripped negative sheets to burn electrostatic plates and ran the AB Dick 750 presses for the school newspaper. He even taught me how to make 4 color runs and how to line up the registration marks etc.. Before I was out of high high school 35mm cameras bit the dust and digital photos/printers took over. Metal shop was always my favorite class (same instructor as wood shop) and a knife looks great with a wooden handle you know. Just needed a note from the folks that it was ok to do. I also remember we would take our rifles to the principals office in the morning and pick them up at the end of the day to head out to the woods. It saved us the trip home. Times sure have changed.

Lyle, some of what was on sale, looked like the type of junk that we get here in Australia, at our swap meets. People want ridiculous prices for it. I have a copy of the gun and its development, bought it from Ray Rillings Arms book company, 40 years ago, good book. I trust your brother in Cody enjoys the gun books you got for him. My Daughter, on a trip the the US some years ago (on her own), went to the Buffalo Bill museum, that you have featured and really enjoyed it. She was a bit unsure of herself there and the lady at the hotel said, don't worry dear, we will look after you, your in Cody Wyoming, so it must be a nice place.

When I was drag racing at Lion's Drag Strip in the early '60's that P&G valve gapper was the hot ticket! It was used in place of the old feeler gauge method to determine the valve lash on hi-perf engines with solid tappets. Our Isky gear drive roller cam setup was a perfect candidate for it's use. Various adapters were included to fit different engines and valve spring retainers. Used while the engine was not running, just to show valve lash when the lifter was on the base circle of the cam, we found it to be quite effective.Gary Weldele, Long Beach Ca.
I wish I lived in a part of the country where this kind of stuff comes up for auction. Here it's what was in the tool box in the back of a farm pickup or a shop where a c clamp was the height of sophistication.

Going to these auctions can become an addiction. Every tool junkie knows that feeling when you score a great deal, "I can sell this for twice what I paid on ebay" or the dreaded buyers remorse, "why the heck did I buy this??", and my personal favorite, "the wife is gonna have a fit when I haul this home".

How to adjust a precision level: Take a flat plate and draw a line on it. Place on end of the level against the line and take a reading. Rotate the level 180 degrees and note the difference. Adjust the inclination screw until the level reads the same in both positions. This will work whether the plate is level or not as long as the same reference line is used.
