OPENING PANDORA.S BOX TOOL CABINET?

[@Drew_Snydermann]

The CJ2004 puller set is $1,500.00 new from Snap-on, The CJ2003 is $805.00. Figure half price or even more for used. Had those sets at my auto shop, excellent pullers. It looks like you may have most or all of the Snap-on master puller set CJ2000S, which is $4,800.

You might pick out one or more of the good sets & offer separately, if you don't get a real good offer for everything.. then buy some amazing accessories for the Atlas.. but you are wise to not want to put too much time into it.. I kind of perked up at the Clausing price.. didn't hear what the Maximat went for .. if they were not sitting too long, either might not have been too bad a cleanup..

The contents of that cabinet just made that a fantastic deal, the lathe is just icing on the cake. The Snap On puller set, the long OTC puller, and the various specialty automotive pullers make that a better than $5k load of tools. Many of the unbranded pullers may just be OEM supplied tools. The total value of those pullers far exceeds the value of the lathe, even in perfect condition. I've got most of those pullers from years of working in dealerships and I can't even imagine how much they all cost total when new.

[@29chevbolenschannel40]

The good thing about the items in the cabinet is they were protected from the rust. Sorry that you only found the 4 jaw chuck as the only lathe part but that is one less thing you will need to locate. The good thing with the Atlas Craftsman 6" series is that there is lots of tooling that can be found - just need deep pockets - hopefully you can sell the pullers and come out ahead enough to purchase most of the tooling and that the lathe itself cleans up to the point where it is useable. Thanks for the mystery tool cabinet episode - I enjoyed it.

[@leeroyholloway4277]

A few thoughts: When you need a puller, nothing else will do. -- This video is way more exciting than Geraldo's TV special. -- My Dad always said, "Locks are for honest people".

I remember watching a 60 Minutes piece about pick pockets. They interviewed an old ex-con pick pocket who lamented that nobody was learning the "trade" anymore and these days they "just knock you in the head and take your wallet." He said the same was true with lock pickers. It is easier to knock the door down than to learn how to defeat the lock. I was pretty impressed with how fast you got into that cabinet...and I hope the kid who taught you will get out soon.

[@timeflysintheshop]

HOLY MOLY! THE MOTHERLOAD OF PULLERS!!!! You can definitely sell the Snap-on stuff for what you paid for everything! You did very well! I wished you luck at that auction, and IT WORKED! 👍😁👍

[@mrpete222]

Thanks 👍

[@wvrockcrusher]

Wow! You did very well even though it wasn't what you were hoping for. At least you found the 4-jaw for the Atlas. Maybe he never had any other accessories for the machine? I can tell you those Snap-On puller sets are worth far more than what you gave for the lathe as they look brand new and complete. I have a lot of those pullers and slide hammers because I work on a variety of things from automotive, industrial machinery, farm equipment, machine tools, etc., so that's probably why he had so many different pullers. The 3-in-1 sets are for ball joints, bushings, u-joints, or whatever else you can think of. Saw some pitman arm pullers, steering wheel pullers, tie rod tools, etc. You should make your money back and have plenty to cover getting the needed accessories for the Atlas with no problem, given the right buyers show up. That is a very nice cabinet and is worth a little cash by itself, although it is perfect for the Atlas to live on. I bought an Atlas just like that one a few years ago at auction for 50 bucks, but it came with a crate full of every accessory under the sun, which was worth more than the lathe. I'll have to look and see if there are any doubles in the crate that I don't need. If there is, maybe I can send you something for yours.

Be of great cheer! Finding new, or almost new, Snapon tool sets is always a good thing. I'm sure you will come well financially and mentally.

[@davida1hiwaaynet]

Fascinating! It's a crying shame that the remainder of the Atlas accessories weren't in the box! It sure seems like the owner of that did quite a bit of suspension and undercarriage work on cars. Makes you wonder what the lathe was used for in such a shop. One item which seems out of place with all the automotive puller tools is this - At 22:51 you open the lower drawer of one of the small red boxes and pick up a small tool with a slot in the center and some round holes, and two wing nuts. You mention it may be a flaring tool. That is actually a refrigeration pinch-off and re-rounding tool. The "jaws" in the center can crush copper tubing and stop the flow of gas. Once you have performed your service procedure, you place the tube through one of the round holes, and close the tool again. The round hole will "re-round" or open up the copper tubing. Many decades ago, before the advent of Schrader valves, people would use this tool to prevent loss of their refrigerant charge while disconnecting gauges and placing a cap over a non-Schrader service port. Or, they would cut the tubing and solder the end closed after servicing the system. I have a hunch that the people at the car shop "may have" used those to close off brake hoses to stop the loss of brake fluid while doing suspension work. This is a bad idea since it damages the hoses, but people do it regardless. I did get a kick out of the lockpicking. Some of us don't like destroying things, including locks. I had to learn to do this as well, to open some of the old soft drink coolers I repair. The lock cylinders are typically available but often if you try to destroy the lock, other parts of the mechanism (made of pure unobtainium) get damaged as well. Looking forward to seeing your travels and auction browsing videos this year, as well. Thanks and please keep them coming!

[@mrpete222]

Thanks for some great advice and solutions

[@randallthomas5207]

Tractors. Farm auction, pretty much everything in the cabinet, would work on tractors, and the lathes would let the owner fab their own hard to locate parts.

@@davida1hiwaaynet 30yr HVAC/R guy here. I saw those too and used them years ago. Don’t much anymore due to the damage you mentioned. We do use a specialized vice-grip pinch-off working with newer, small refrigeration units because law requires we pinch off and solder she system shut with no service ports. These are R-290 (Propane) units. Weird the new laws require it, the old cascade systems I used to work on for -100°F boxes that were used, ironically, in an aircraft machine shop for interference fits. Full circle I guess! 😂

Back when l was rebuilding spindles for machine tools (box, cartridge and cartridgeless styles) l ordered a couple of sets of pullers that most people never see. The Snap-On (1) set for pulling dowel pins that are not drilled and tapped. That one consisted of collets with a collapsibg sleeve. The other was either Snap-On or OTC. That was the one for pulling bearings from blind holes. Sleeves with slits cut in them and a tapered ID. An expansion plug would expand them and they had a shoulder that would rest against the inner race. Also had the SKF bearing installation set that covered from 101 to 310 ball bearings. Later when l was rebuilding industrial centrifuges we had SKF 3 jaw hydraulic pullers. I wanted to make up adaptors to use the hydraulic pump and cylinder on other applications but there was never the time. Always too busy. 1) Coporate headquarters is about 3.5 miles away from my house.

[@basilseal]

the puller legs in the two red boxes go with the hydraulic puller you found at the start, not familiar with the brand but looks similar to the sykes pickavant brand we have in the UK, the reason there's only one leg in the first box is because the puller swaps between two and three legs and it was set up for two with the other two legs that match this one, the different length legs swap for different operations. IMO the pullers are worth more than you paid for the lathe.

Maybe someone has already told you this - the first puller you look at is kind-of hydraulic. You fill the central small dia hole with grease (remove the screw with the tommy bar in it first), take the slack up with the large fine thread you mentioned, and then use the central small tommy-bar driven screw to push the grease - the business end of the ram floats inside, as is driven out by the grease as you tighten that central screw. They work rather well.

I was a young "hot rodder" back in the early 70's and my Dad got them for me for Christmas, which is why I haven't tossed them. They are pretty much useless due to the size of the head .

[@bobmazzi7435]

I think you did well. I could see a couple of ways to go forward. First, put it on consignment at your machinery dealer. Perhaps using the credit towards the Atlas stuff you want. Second, chase down the SnapOn truck and ask him for an offer. Most of them would buy the SnapOn stuff at half price and sell it on at 3/4 price. Cash. They usually do take trades so buying used would not scare them. Third, visit the local auto repair shop and ask the techs what they want, I'd expect to be able to get a couple of grand easy. Forth, visit whatever local maintenance shops there are, even the School Bus Garage or factories that work on their own machinery. And the final option is PeteBay, Puller edition. Shipping would be a bear, but a cuople of hundred bucks to ship a thousand buck sale is not the worst thing in the world.

At 11.30.. that 3 jaw puller is a GREAT tool. Made in ND. It is tuff and strong. Reasonable price..and they used to send replacement parts free! 3 jaws and a stabilizer to hold it all in place!

That looks like Bugsy Segal's gold bullion safe from the 1936 Wells Fargo Stagecoach heist!
