Greetings Mr Pete! Thank you so much for the respect you showed for this gentleman's dogtags! We love our vets! Always enjoy your tours through auction finds! Knock yourself out at the auctions! You, passing up on a good deal out of guilt will not benefit any of us that were not at the auction. Live long and prosper Mr Pete!

Lyle, the Ajax drill stand, when cleaned up could sell for $45.00 or more by itself on Ebay....Vintage drill stands are very desirable...On the dog tag, that one was issued either just prior or during WWII, judging by it's shape.. I am a Korean War Marine veteran..joined in 1950 and my dog tags are oval in shape..Those issued after about 1952 are more rectangular with a "notch" in one edge...I am almost 86yrs old and I stated work in a machine shop in 1947..I presently have eight lathes, four of which are "suitcase" lathes and one is a 1947 South Bend 9A...One can never have too many tools!!!!! Keep those KZbins coming...I thoroughly enjoy them!!!!!

When I saw that dog tag ,my heart jumped too. The serial number on the tag indicates he was drafted in the military and received his tetanus shot in 1956. US stands for inducted (drafted) and RA indicates regular Army (enlisted) . Check out how worn the hole is in the tag, he must have worn that tag a very long time. He is what makes America great. I enlisted in the Army in 1955 and my prefix was RA, however as years went on all that changed. The Army even went to SSN, but that was a dumb idea. Later on , I became an officer and my prefix was O5327###, while the officers that attended places like West Point received the prefix like RA regular army. The joke at the time after the Vietnam war was, non RA were Christmas help and the RIF was on. (reduction in force). I retired in 1975. Thank you for returning that dog tag to the family it will mean a lot. Again thank you Mr. Pete for being so respectful....Ken

@kenzpenz6 жыл бұрын
Mr Pete, he might have gotten another set of dog tags at a later date and the service would have updated his dog tags with his most recent tetanus shot. I have several sets of dog tags with updates on most. You sent me scrambling to find my old dog tags and I managed to find only one of the original tags with the T55 . My dog tag has the elongated worn hole, but not worn through like his. My dog tag has that strange cut out on the left side of the tag, like his and a A, for blood type and P for Protestant .That cutout has a gruesome need for use when placing one tag with a deceased soldier in combat. The Army no longer uses that on newer tags. Probably more information then needed so I'll butt out. Take care ...Ken

Sometimes its hard to accept that certain people resent other people having fun. A pernicious form of envy I expect. Regardless keep going to auctions Mr. Pete because I feel your joy. On the topic of getting bulk items distributed how about you start a Patreon account to cover the cost of shipping stuff you find. Id contribute to help ship stuff say to some mechanic in the Congo or Philippines or such. Perhaps there's an NGO that could be trusted to help. Float the idea to your viewers se what comes up.

I think the Mueller drill/tap combination bit is used to make a connection to a pressurized iron water main. A large saddle is placed over the main, the hole is drilled and tapped, then the fitting is installed. There is a gate valve on the bottom and a seal on drive shank at the top that makes this possible. The drive tool was air powered.

Thank you for this tour of your auction loot. When you brought out that S&K toolbox, I thought that looks a lot like my Dad's toolbox even down to the same bent drawerpull. He bought that box when he was just starting out, I have a similarily sized box I bought when I was just starting out...I guess its a kind of rite of passage buying your first toolbox. I greatly enjoy watching these type of videos. It really drives home how little manufacturing was done in the area I am as the area auctions rarely have factory tools of any kind usually it is hobbies or diy stuff and very occasionally tools to support farming but little industrial type tools.

This was fun to see the cool things you ended up with. If you ever had a garage sale, and sold some of the tools from this lot that you didn't care to keep, you will find that you will get your money back, and that you end up with the things you did liked and kept, you get for free. It's funny how the things we really could care less about, others would give their left arm for, and the things they could care less about, we really want. I believe there are a lot of one armed machinists out there who have ended up with all the cool tools. Thank you for sharing this with us. Michael

Thank you for sharing you knowledge with the world, that is priceless! As far a value, and as an experienced Ebay Seller (over 15 years) I estimate $300 to $400 , once the items are cleaned up and put into small lots. The box itself is probably not worth what it would cost to ship. It is easy to determine an items value by looking at Sold Items on Ebay, this will give you the real market value. Sellers can ask any price they want, but the Sold price is golden. You happen to live in an a part of the country where there appears to be plenty of machine related tools. I am in the Sierra Foot Hills of CA and although these kind of items are around, they require a lot of searching and digging and the competition from other buyers can be brutal. I just found an old Power Craft (Logan) 10 x 24 Lathe and am in the process of restoring it. Your videos are very helpful. Thanks again!

Glad you and Mrs. Pete had some fun on her BD and imagine you are both quite a catch. Happy BD Mrs. Pete! I sure had fun watching this. The box of the wool and paper was a great find. Drawer 2, I think that was a broken Cleko? I might have spent $50 on the box depending how much I spent on other things. I usually give myself a limit on how much I spend overall when I get there and get a feel for whats there. A few good things in the box, but most required a lot of clean up. For some reason the plumb bob spoke out to me...looked old school quality, but how often does one use them anymore. Pretty clear about the files and no file card in the box, but a good lot of them. Forget the complainers by considering the source, they have their mind and place too...I think¿ Felt the emotion on the Dog Tags too. Glad you'll get them back to the family, very kind.

And I still need some button dies in various sizes. You done good in my book. Down in south Texas, there isn't much machinist stuff that isn't oil field left overs, which means beat to death, dull and ruined. I appreciate your emotion on finding the dog tag.

My father-in-law was in WW2, and his younger brother was in Korea. They're both gone now. - Yes! We're Happy! Watching tubalcain! When I can't find boxes like that in my area, it would be worth $100, to supplement my tooling. Nice AJAX drill index. Park-o-meter oil was for parking meters, could it be Sperm Oil? I need to find some good USA made vintage files. Why keep used hacksaw blades? Another entertaining video. I'll send shipping money for what you don't want! LOL

I think you paid the right price. No fun paying $100 for $100 worth of tools. These are enjoyable.

Just got to this one Mr Pete and yes it's hard to pass some items knowing that the scrap man is the next stop. As I don't have many of your number taps and dies and no American pipe taps or dies then think I would pay your $50 or $100 Australian As a side that tap with drill bit attached. I have a ¾ BSP version. I still remember, was the late 50's in the UK, watching workers setting up and fitting a tapping to a live cast iron gas main. This type of drill tap was hand driven in a rotating assembly, clamped to the underground cast iron pipe. First the hole was drilled and tapped, the assembly head was then rotated and a valve was then screwed in. PS. I do enjoy your videos. If only my instructors had your flair.

Hi Lyle doesn’t matter what other people say, it’s your bucks your pleasure and I for one enjoy you doing your thing, but I must say I wish I was your next door neighbour. Definitely not shafted at that price.

I love your auction find videos I too love auctions and tool finding and the thrill of finding a bargain this sk tool case has a value of 150.00 plus. I think I may have bid up to 75.00 to 80.00 so I believe that you scored a nice bargain

If you can get those dog tags back to the family I think we would all love to see a video of that. Imagine how you felt finding them and then multiply it by 100 when it is your grandfather.

If I could pick the box up to get an idea of what the weight as an indication of what was in I would go $100 unopened, just looking at it and not touching it $50. I am like you and enjoy looking through all the goodies I get when i win a lot box of assorted items. Don't let anyone tell you that you need to stop going to auctions, you can never have enough toys. My shop is running over and I am still bringing in more. You do seem to have better sales in your area than we do here in Georgia.
