Tool Show Report- No Parking Sign Cleaned- Cool Show-N-Tell Items

[@rogermcdonald1607]

I cant wait until you restore the bell. What a cool project! ✌🇺🇸

[@805ROADKING]

Nice job on the Sign Bud!! That Ring Side Bell is slicker than Snot!!☻

[@timeflysintheshop]

I knew it was brass!!!! The arms too! That is gonna be so sweet when your done with it!

[@jackthompson2132]

That ring side bell is my favorite! Can’t wait to see what you do with it 😃. The segment on the counter boar bits were interesting also. By the way , great video! Thank You for sharing!

[@grantkeenan6316]

8:11 😂 I laughed so hard because you took me straight back. Thank you, yet again, Mr Crafter 🙏🏽

[@billmccabe9601]

...and definitely, Thanks for ending this with a great view of Old Glory against the nightish sky.

[@kadmaster]

Best show...Mish Mosh Monday...I can't wait for bell,sir..

[@michaellindsay8934]

That bell is going to be beautiful can't wait to see the restoration The tool show is always enjoyable to see thanks for sharing your time

[@SeanKroner]

If you want really good figs you need to grow them yourself. It’s a rabbit hole for sure with all the different cultivars. But as an avid figster I certainly recommend starting a fig tree orchard. It’s a very rewarding experience eating fresh perfectly ripe figs! :)

[@kgarba9253]

Did some work at the sign shop at a NJ DOT facility. One right off the turnpike where they made the big highway signs. Always humbling to see the size of those when they’re on the ground

[@GuntersGarage]

That brass boxing bell is going to look awesome all cleaned up. A little patina on the no parking sign looks perfect.

[@johnkelley9877]

I agree with everyone that the bell would look great restored. You had a lot of interesting tools and the show looked neat but I was impressed with how nice the sign looked after you cleaned it. Thanks for sharing this.

[@jimcolhouer7642]

That bell is going to be beautiful!!!!! Can’t wait to see it restored!!! Love the tire pressure gauge too!!!

[@philparker1666]

Great episode Scoutcrafter, love it when you take us along to the tool meet, I actually picked up one of those tyre gauges this year here in the UK, loved the paperweight. 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇬🇧✌️

[@ScoutCrafter]

They had such great advertising items back in the day! Thanks Phil!

[@toolscouter]

Another great video. Thanks so much for sharing with us all. Have a great week.

[@williamlouis5011]

Can’t wait to see the bell restoration. I like the paperweight, probably because I love roll-top desks. I always wanted one.

[@ozarkbonsai7838]

Thank you for taking us along with you to the show. Can’t wait to see the bell restored.

[@westhighlandsshop]

Awesome cleanup on the sign, a lot of people would just wash it off. Those extra steps make a world of difference. That boxing bell is just plain cool. It's going to beautiful when cleaned up.

[@josephwatts925]

ScoutCrafter, I'll see that early brace in my dreams for weeks! Loved that bell; can't wait to see what you do with it. Aw, the early fights and the great fighters. Great show as usual, all the best.

[@ToolsandTime]

Thanks for taking us along to the show--looks like it was fun. That was some good info on the countersink, counterbore and mill. Cool Show and Tell also, thanks Scoutcrafter!

[@rawbacon]

That little pry bar looks perfect, usually they're too narrow, the metal is too thing and they don't have a handle so you can get a firm grip.

[@357magdad]

That old tire pressure gauge is cool!

[@coreysheets4862]

Nothing like a good deep breath of work shop chemicals. LOL. I remember as a kid how good gasoline smelled. It stinks now with that ethanol. Still love how those dividers came out and that Ring Bell is gonna look amazing. I wonder how itd look with some jewelling? Cant wait for it.

[@BudBush]

Can't wait to see the ringside bell restored. That's quite a hunk of brass.

[@BudBush]

After watching the mish mosh I couldn't resist running to the store and purchasing the Warner pry bar. You were right: felt great in the hand, nice and sturdy, heavily made. It's a great addition to my scrapers and putty knives. And the price was right!

[@ScoutCrafter]

I passed it around and everyone liked it! 😃👍

[@survivalwise]

Good morning and thank you !! My name is Ron , a few years ago I was thumbing through KZbin posts, and I happened to land on a video by ScoutCrafter . You were making old tools look new again! Well to say I was hooked is an understatement! I started refurbishing old tools and because of you the time in my shop brought much joy. This past year I was diagnosed with terminal liver disease and now i can't be in my shop as much as I would like because i am getting weaker. But none the less I can't hardly wait for Monday, Wed, and Friday so I can watch your videos! Thank you for being there and for sharing your time with us all. You have certainly made a very positive impact on my life. Thank you for the fun times and may God bless you in all you do!! Ron Blair

[@ScoutCrafter]

Hello Ron- I’m so sorry you have been dealing with medical issues. Sooner or later most of us will be doing the same. I am so glad you have found this wonderful hobby and enjoy the content here. I hope you will be feeling better soon because nothing clears the mind better then working on a project no matter what it is. Thanks for saying hello! 😃👍

[@johnfix1]

A very interesting show and tell. My favorite is the bell. Can't wait to see the restoration. I would buy the whole dollar table. 😂😂

[@wvrockcrusher]

Cool little tool show Scout! That bell is gonna be a real eye catcher when you get a shine on the brass! Saw a couple jacks there on the tables that I would have had to check out. Counter bores are essential to have around to me. I like the kind that has the removable pilot centers so you can either make your own, or just swap them out depending on what size you need. Tire gauge was pretty neat and hard to believe it still works, complete with leather sheath. Great video as always!

[@larrynelson734]

Hi John. Another great video. You always find some great stuff. Love those old shows. You have a great week.👍👍❤...

[@snapringchronicles3020]

Hey great seeing you at the show. We had perfect weather👍

[@ScoutCrafter]

What a great show! 😃👍

[@greghomestead8366]

Awesome show today. My favorite is the pressure gauge. Have a Jesus filled day everyone Greg in Michigan

[@metalwork.]

🇺🇲👍 great.... Lots of fantastic fig preserves out there.. they are my favorite

[@larryborkstrom3580]

Can't wait to see the boxing bell done that paperweight was also fool

[@patcb829]

Thanks for taking us along for the meet. I really liked the paperweight but my favorite is the ring bell, looking forward to that video.

[@13thworker45]

I believe the bell will be a show ringer! The machinist tools are a winner too. You showed a wood toolbox . I have one that I bought years ago that I need to restore. They are made with pride .Another education on the sign clean up. Great show, thank You

[@alansmith4734]

18:54 Paper is on its way out? Do I need Paper Weights, instead of Toilet Paper? Trick or Treat!? Back in the early 80's, I wanted a Roll Top Desk and a Barbers Chair!

[@Fake-moon-landing.]

Bells are normally bronze, beautiful. I'd get someone to knock me out to hear that 😮

[@geraldschrader8511]

Yes, I too was wondering if that bell wasn't bronze rather than brass.

[@Fake-moon-landing.]

@@geraldschrader8511 It would make a fantastic door bell, as long as you didn't knock the delivery guy out.

[@joeschulz7997]

Love your paper weight collection. There is something magical about them👍🏻

[@Vandal_Savage]

That ringside bell is very nice, I'm hoping it's going to polish up well. I'm also wondering if you'll be sticking in on the lathe to bring up a mirror finish 😊

[@toolscarriagesmodellbauand7246]

I like that big wooden Carpenters toolbox at the beginning. I can't really believe these downprices on the one dollar table. Its unbelieveble for me. Never seen here in germany. Great video as ever

[@ScoutCrafter]

Here too! Years ago I would have bought the whole table! 😂👍

[@ryannash9582]

Great video, ScoutCrafter! 👍🏻 I am a sucker for anything old made of brass so I’m anxiously awaiting the resto of the ringside bell. The paper weight was another interesting find. My grandparents have an old roll top desk like that and I was always fascinated by it as a child. Brings back some good memories! 😊

[@patjohnson3100]

I'm waiting to see how nicely that bell turns out after a SC restoration. The Schrader tire gauge is in perfect condition and would be a great complement to someone with a vintage car. I have a brass Schrader gauge, but it appears to be stuck. The info on using mill bits for drilling/boring is useful. Notice that the mill bit doesnt wobble in the chuck like a high speed drill bit would be prone to do. Thanks.

[@BenButler1]

Lots of good stuff here! Thanks John. Spade bits work well for counter bored holes in wood. Spade bit the counterbore first, follow up with clearance drill in the center of the counterbore marked by the spade bit point.

[@kimbishop4734]

The paper weight was the best. I can't wait to see the brass bell polished up, though.

[@essentialhandyman]

That paperweight is a beauty.

[@andyc972]

Thanks for taking us with you to the tool meet John, there was some great stuff there, love the old tool boxes and machinists chests, they command high prices online ! Did I spot some Stanley 100 plus bolstered Screwdrivers there ? I'd have been after those and also that No.&1 Router plane, they've become very popular again and have gone up tremendously in value in recent years. The parking sign, came out great, I love the smell of those old finishes, brings back many happy memories, I came across some Simoniz compound in my Dads garage as I was clearing, almost used up and dried up and crumbling, but it still had that evocative smell !

[@TheKidFromYTown]

I liked the 1) Bell and 2) No Parking Sign. Of course, the whole video was enjoyable.

[@stevenwitt4028]

Great video 👍 That tool show Video you showed us was fantastic. Looks like they had some awesome deals there. That $1.00 bin look like it had some hidden treasures 🪛🔧. Looks like the one table I believe Mikes had two nice Yellow &black Stanley screwdrivers 🪛. That Stanley #71 router looked awesome, so did that old carpenters 🔨 wooden toolbox, fantastic! That no parking sign you got cleaned up and polished nicely, great job👍. That brass bell 🛎 is going to be a great project for the show, can’t wait to see . Good information & demonstration on counterbores& transfer punches. I will have to look for some on Amazon. That does look like a great pry bar and not to much money👍. That is a cool old glass paper 📄 weight . Another great shot of Old Glory 🇺🇸 flying in that cool night sky 🌌. Well again great video and can’t wait to see what you do on Wednesday. 😄👍👍

[@ScoutCrafter]

Steven- Yes! Those Stanley screwdrivers were a good buy at $5 each. I had them in my hand! 😂👍

[@57WillysCJ]

There was some cool stuff at the show that I would have put money on. Those safety gas cans are the bees knees. I have plastic ones floating but I don't use. I have a couple of the old air gauges if I could remember where I put them. Wood tool box was nice and went for a great price. Mostly they go higher for home decor. I am restoring a couple. If I was selling and someone wasn't buying for tools, then I would sell for home decor. Why, because it will stay in good shape inside for the next 5-10 years.

[@coreysheets4862]

Also interesting fact about figs. Many of the wild varieties, those not harvested for resale will have a dead, digested wasp inside. The wasp are natures fig pollinators. Just a fun fact. I love figs.

[@ScoutCrafter]

That is interesting!! 😃👍

[@learningsevenresearchgoals1127]

I picked up a beautiful set of Channellock Meadville PA USA 437 pliers at the Quakertown PA flea market this weekend. They are in beautiful condition and polished up nice. There is no patent # or Champion/Dearment markings either. Plain steel, smooth handles and no blue rubber. Any idea when these were made? I’m thinking 60’s or 70’s? 🤷‍♂️

[@larrydemaar409]

My favorite is the brass boxing bell.

[@kathieharine5982]

As a child living in California, we lived where there were fig trees. Tastie!!

[@ROD59]

Definitely the "no parking" sign , now you can put it in front of your driveway

[@bigvicsworkshop]

Wow...5 bucks for any double sided sign is a steal! Awesome! Any it cleaned up great...I enjoy cleaning old signs like that almost as much as tools... and I ca t wait to see that bell worked on... I have always wanted one as well..lol..not sure why... maybe cause I'm never satisfied I guess😅 good stuff Mr. John

[@paulsworkshop4179]

Always wanted a boxing bell. That one is going to clean up great. My favorite item was the tire gauge.

[@mangaswilliams4145]

I really wish I could make it out there I would have no money left when done California just doesn't have good tools shows like that everything is New out here

[@overseas_demogod]

Big fan of the tire guage. I've always been a stickler for checking tire pressure.

[@tonylenge424]

My favorite item was the brass bell. That will look beautiful. Thanks

[@bobbyw9046]

SUPER NEAT Tire Gauge!!

[@almacli8360]

That Bell is nice kido great find Johnny - that’s gonna come out Excellent 👍🏼

[@LoStivale]

I’d love to see the bell restoration. A lot of cool stuff.

[@lotsabirds]

That bell is something ! Maybe it was at a Rocky Marciano fight. Maybe Rocky Graziano! My dad was a boxer in the Army back in WW2. He actually knew those two Rockys! As a kid , i met Graziano! Whatta nose? Anyway, Back in the day I also met Sylvester Stallone when he helped one of his cousins open a hamburger joint in West Babylon so I got that Rocky covered! 😅 anyway, ghat bell is gonna be amazing!

[@ScoutCrafter]

Wow! My father was a professional fighter! He often sparred with Rocky Marciano! 😃👍

[@lotsabirds]

​@@ScoutCrafter Small world! That's fantastic! I got to know Graziano more than Marciano. My dad introduced me to Tommy Barbella ... I was confused as a kid because I new the guy was Rocky Graziano. Then my dad explained his fighting name vs his real name. Rocky would show up at a park on Grand Sreet in Brooklyn every once in awhile! MarciAno wasn't around as much when I was a kid, I think he lived in Florida at the time.but he hung around in NY now and then. I had an aunt and uncle that raced trotters at Roosevelt, Saratoga and in FL. They knew him too! Your dad had to be a heck of a fighter to step in the ring with Rocky. My dad fought light heavyweight at 178 lbs. Rocky woulda hurt him! My dad taught me how to box, I had a hard right and i was fast, but I never got into it seriously! I wish I had kept my gloves! I left them in Westbury when I moved out after I got married. I have no idea where they ended up! You must have some cool stories! Was your dad also John?

[@lotsatrains]

Great show and really liked how clean you got the sign 👍

[@tomdale1313]

another great one in the can as they say, gonna love seeing the ring side bell resto, txs for sharing...

[@Everythings_Adjustable]

Like a lot of people below I'm looking forward to seeing you restore the bell 🛠👍😊

[@dougdohrman2559]

Looking forward to that boxing bell!

Very cool paperweight! 🇨🇦

[@beerdrinker6452]

What kind of maniac does not like anti-friction drawers. Which guy was Snap Ring? Great video. Thank you.

[@ironhead65]

I’ve been looking at tap and die sets. I’d love to get your take on it. I think in ready to get a “pass on to my kids” set. Loved the show and as always, thanks for the video!

[@ScoutCrafter]

Vintage Tap and Die sets are really inexpensive now! The key is condition. Spend a little more and get a beautiful mint set that you will admire even when not in use. eBay is full of wonderful choices. 😃👍

[@ironhead65]

@@ScoutCrafter thank you! any particular brands you’ve seen that have aged well? I think you’ve said you like Vermont in the past?

[@billmccabe9601]

That bell looks exactly like one I have, same size, that supposedly came off a Columbus,OH streetcar. I have a second one just over half it's size too.

[@lewiemcneely9143]

The bell will be UN-REAL and I went for the tire gauge. Have a fine week and God Bless Yall!

[@chrisbarkley7825]

Love the paperweight but the bell is super cool !!!

[@rge2410]

The Schrader company invented the valve in in a tire valve stem. Called a Schrader valve.

[@johnmclaurin]

Look forward to seeing bell renewed!

[@mikebrunosgarage5338]

Great episode, I always enjoy your little field trips! I also enjoyed the drill press with the milling bits, plus the bell was neat. Thanks again and see you Wednesday!

Hi John, nice items but the paper weight snd the air gauge are my #1 😂👍

Hi Scout Crafter the best small prybar you will ever use is a "us-10-c Richard lever bar scraper" they are cheap extremely useful and practically indestructible.

[@ScoutCrafter]

I just looked it up! Very similar shape minus the handle…. Looks like a winning design. 😃👍

[@davidspinney2023]

other companies make almost the same thing this is just the one I mostly use@@ScoutCrafter

[@saigaking]

Can’t wait for the bell I think it’s going to be a great show really cool stuff today scout god bless take care 🇺🇸🇳🇿🪖🗽🦅45

[@jodydoakes8754]

You had to have a paper weight because the windows were open to bring in the nice breeze. First office I worked in had lots of paper, open windows, and lots of paper weights.

[@josaonline09]

Can’t wait to see the bell…..hope you go all out

[@danohstoolbox]

I like the tyre gage I’ve got one like that but a lot more modern got it when I was in my teens when I started riding motorcycles now in my 60s

[@lv_woodturner3899]

The ring bell is my favourite, it already has a very good ring. I will have to get one of the Warner pry bars. A useful size. Nice to see the tables at the show. Dave.

[@joeflores9496]

I found a air tester the same in my Dad’s tools.

Another great show John...just curious, did you do any boxing when you were active in the corps?

[@michelecrown2426]

Looking forward to seeing the bell restored.

[@scotthowell8083]

Small world John. I just bought that same bell in similar condition at an estate sale two weeks ago. Does yours have a makers mark? Mine is a Bevin, which was manufactured in the town I live in (East Hampton, CT). I started my restoration and it's going to take a whole lotta polishing. Be careful with the nut that holds the bell onto the frame. Mine is not threaded. It's actually attached to a stud that was pressed in. I found out the hard what after spinning a wrench on it without it backing out.

[@ScoutCrafter]

I didn’t look too closely yet. Those Bells are awesome! 😃👍

[@bobbyw9046]

Saddens me greatly when I see great tools and equipment that would once be handed down to the next generation, now being sold for a pittance. The average teenager and young man can barely tie their shoe laces now - forget about actually fixing something. Just part of the crumbling of our once great Country.
