MOTHER LODE OF FREE TOOLS major hoard pt 2 tubalcain

[@LostMountainRestoration]

I love these kinds of videos. Thanks. I don't carry a Leatherman, but they do command a decent price if you choose to re-sell it. Not long ago, I came across a pick-up truck full of lower-quality tools which I had to take with some tool boxes I purchased from a man who just wanted it all gone. I sorted out the decent tools then figured I would donate the rest. A friend agreed to take the rest to a local auction in a set of 5 gallon buckets. We got over $300 for the tools, splitting the profits from our plunder of "junk". As you know, the key is to get the junk out of your house as fast as you can. Good luck and thanks again.

I was given a Leatherman about 15 years ago, but the screwdriver blade wasn't tempered properly and it broke. So I _rarely_ use it for anything because I don't trust it, even though I had always heard that they were top notch. Since it was a gift, I don't have any "proof of purchase," so I don't know whether it's worth fooling with the warranty system?

[@martineastburn3679]

One the ohm meter - only resisters are used with a battery. AC and DC voltage / current (maybe) doesn't use battery even if missing or corroded. Leatherman are good steel and are keepers. Typical multi-tool. Handy for the car tool box or desk. Good quality steel file. Best clean an old than buy new. If you have Xcelite handles that turn white, simply put them into a RF tank and they come out clear and pretty. Those tanks are great for cleaning tools. Solder is also good in brass work.

The compressor could have been saved with a little caution when starting up something like that compressor. You can tell by the sound when the start windings don't open, and can shut it off before it was smoke signaling for help. Little cleanup of the start switch or 'govener" and you would be good to go. I know its not a high high quality device, but just to burn it up don't set well with the tite-wad in me..

Its fun to treasure hunt... The hex bar with the "tap" in the end is a star drill. Before hammer drill wed used them to make holes in stone or concrete to mount items. Very popular with electricians and such to fix boxes and hangars. That was a nice one because the drill part was replaceable. They also made a very nice rubber handgrip to go over the hex bar.

I love this kind of video, this week i had a chance to go through the workshop of a friend who had recently deceased, the family were just going to skip everything (except one of them, who i met up with, I filled 4 similar sized boxes, mostly with materiels as he was an engineer, there was also a complete raw of brass rod and tube in various sizes, after sorting I ended up with about 75 lbs of brass, a similar quantity of steel, aluminium and nylon stock, a bench sized fly press, a sheet metal rolling machine, a home made (by my friend) mill vice some other home made engineering tools and a handful of other tools that I didnt have . I left several times what I took, including a little john lathe, and an old mill (bench top size, but I didnt have anywhere to put them, so had to leave them) it took me several days to sort into piles too, basically I only picked what I knew I would use, and still came away with 4 boxes.

"Free tools" my two favourite words together

[@robert574]

I watched it all (was that a song?). Heard you say "40/60" solder (probably meant 60/40), 40/60 is for stained glass, 50/50 for radiators, 60/40 is electrical. All of these solders have a "paste phase" between solid and liquid (have to be careful you don't wiggle it or it will be frosty looking when it cools). 63/37 alloy goes from solid to liquid to solid with no paste and solidifies quickly. I just learned that:) The new lead free solders have much higher temps and are mostly tin 90-95%. The goal was to remove lead from plumbing and food sources, but of course they are trying to remove it from electronics even. There's nothing like more heat on components and traces as if my soldering wasn't bad enough already.

[@rossstenner4402]

12:35 hexagonal thing with a slot and a tip, I have a set of something similar to these from the 1920's,. I remember father using them before hammer drills were common. My 'handyman' set was made by Rawlplug in the UK. It consists of 1 hex bar, 1 wedge to fit the slot and several paper packets of different sized 'drill bits'. To put a screw into stone orbrick you made the hole with the appropriate drill bit in the hex bar which you then hit the end with a big hammer while rotating the whole lot by hand. Once your fingers came out of plaster you tapped a Rawlplug fibre plug into the hole and you could then screw into it and it would hold pretty well. Put the wedge into the slot to drive out the drill bit

[@tom87pate]

I'm fond of the quality multi-tools like Leatherman. In fact, I dropped mine, at a factory that I worked at, and it was accidentally ran over with a large sweeping machine. It was damaged pretty badly, so I wrote the company and honestly explained what happened.

Great video. About 30 years ago, my wife and I owned an antique store. We went to an auction out in the boonies, where there two tables each made from a sheet of plywood, covered in small items. There were tools, ceramics, vintage toys, bottles and similar things. They tried to auction it all one item at a time, the 5 at a time, and there was little interest. My wife bought the whole lot for $50. I sold two 6&1/2 oz Coke bottles for a dollar each before we had it all packed.

Don't be hard on other brands which may not be popular but will often get the job done. Just because you don't know what a French Curve or Square nails are does not mean that they are junk. It does not have to be an overpriced tool to be functional. You seem blinded by trade names. Yes, people DO use wood screws. Many professionals do not need the over priced high end brands. Sort them and make up several tool boxes and offer them to schools for those in trades training. Brass has good scrap value. China makes things you can no longer get in North America. Sad but True.

That Stanley saw you pick up at 11:19 takes a standard Sawzall blade. I have one and it's very useful, especially if you Deer hunt and use a climbing stand. I keep a pruning blade in mine, it's perfect for trimming small limbs that are in your way. When it's folded it's smooth with no sharp edges so you can carry it in a pocket, and it won't stab you if you fall on it. The handle is hollow for carrying extra blades but they rattle and you have to change them with a screwdriver.

Goodwill in California doesn't take tools; I once got a nice table saw and other tools from an elderly couple that was trying to donate them, but they'd been rejected. I just happened to hear them talking about it and offered to take the items- they were thrilled because they would have had to load them up again and take them home. That guy sure loved gimmicky tools! So much of that pile I'd toss too. The iron threaded items are ferrite tuning slugs for old TVs, radios, etc. Globemaster made cheap tools, but I have a set of their box wrenches that I've had since I was a kid, and they get used all the time. Very fun to watch!

Yes I enjoyed it but the problem was I could shout, "stop, I know what that is...." You are correct, Xcelite tools were primarily electronic tools, my Dad was a raid and TV repairman since 1947 (passed away at the age of 90 and still working in his shop) and he had a lifelong love affair with their line of tools. That Fiskers scissors are FANTASTIC, I have a pair and although Fiskers shows them on their website they are no longer available. I use them in my woodworking shop and they work great for cutting paper, box board, and other material. Two of those, "what is it pliers" are for crimping coax cable ends, one is worthless as it is junk but the other one looked like a good set that would do a great job. You ignored a "Volt Pen" in one box, it is the black device with a white end. It is used by electricians to determine if a wire is hot. It works without making contact with the wire itself. But it look like the white cap was off and more than likely the battery had leaked all over inside of it, and when that happens all the magic is gone. Enough, my comment is too long, but if you are still reading this was a GREAT video.

His place is like Dizzyland for people that like old stuff. Same guy who got the Corvette lead plate ad.

You had fun with this junk. There were a few nice items. It seems like whenever the guy needed a tool, he just bought a new one. I watched the whole thing and made me think about cleaning out my own hoard.

Yes

I totally dig this type of video Mr Pete. I totally switch off from the world and feel like I'm right there with you.

That metal box with the wires cut looks like an older version of my pool pump timer. It "initiates" the pool pumps as a set time every day.

I love these videos - my favorite type. I love learning about new (old) tools and what they’re for and if they’re any good. Its like an easter egg hunt too - taps into something primal.

I enjoyed this video. It's interesting to look over old tools and random junk.

Lyle - Enjoy these. Many electronic repair tools - several crimpers for various connector types. Same process I have gone through to get a couple good things, ended up with lots of odd ball and scrap. Keep it up.
