how about an "Ask Dr Phil" section:LAUGH: :LAUGH:

Actually that might not be a bad idea. Maybe incluse a section where one can critique a new tool on the market (good or bad)

Don't get me started with "Dr. Phil"!

"Are you INSANE?" Even he wouldn't sell his tools. That is just sacrilege!

However, I have been looking for a floor stand drill press and possibly a plasma cutter.

what got me thinking in that direction is that i had to borrow a cam brg tool and was thinking of buying one . can get a new atd for about $150 , checked e-bay but they were used and about $80 - $100 at least and add in shipping and there ya are . tools are important , thought that might make a good section . and no matter what your preference - custom , restored , race - tools is tools . and most importantly , when you sell tools , you need to buy more tools ! del

I like to buy tools, but I'm not much on selling tools.

I want to get an old timey (70's) Stant pressure tester next. I saw a used one at Carlisle last year for $45.00 but money was too tight. I should sell a Champion spark plug cleaner I bought a while back. I never tried to hook it up, & it mght need one of the rubber cups. I got it for a price too low to pass up. It is not currently for sale.

I see some nice Snap-On stuff at this tractor show I go to, but dang that stuff is expensive even when it's used. See alot of Snap-On at Carlisle, but again, the price $$$$$

I love going to farm or estate auctions where I can buy a whole bunch of good old tools for next to nothing.
