Mr. Pete, I hope you NEVER stop going to auctions and yard sales. God bless Mrs Pete for supporting you as well.

The baby Wilton is an amazing score. There is always more money than sense at auctions. Thanks for the videos.

Thank you Mr Pete. This was very exciting. I'm so happy for you. Congratulations on the baby bullet! The base is icing on the cake.

Wait a minute, you said it was the last auction 5 auctions ago Mr Pete....Ha. Just one more! Yeah! Aww the heck...Go for it!

Being one of limited funds and movement from age, thank you for letting me live my life vicariously with your action buy videos. And I mean that! The vice is awesome. Many of the ones with the base I see for sale are over 1000 dollars. Cool find

Morning Lyle. Hoarder Happiness!

It’s probably good, I don’t live back there where you have auctions like that… my shop would be full of junk and my wallet constantly empty … so you keep going so I can live vicariously thru your pocketbook… I love these posts!

The baby bullet is sweet! Another great haul. We knew you wouldn't stop going to auctions. The Checker cab piece looks to be a horn button from the steering wheel.

Keep the auction auction coming, wow a baby bullet, whaat a treat!! :-D love the dumore, I have the same vintage one

Wow Mr. Pete! That was a great haul! So many cool items! Color me green with envy!

Well if there ever was the need for a Tool Auction Anonymous... we'll sponsor you, Lyle! 🤣 Wilton, just clean and oil, don't paint it.

Mr. Pete: Auction stuff: The conical brass thing with a fold-out blade in a slot on the side is a cork borer sharpener. I think I've seen a tiny Wilton vise about 2-3 inches long at a flea market marked about $85 ten or fifteen years ago.

You always sound so exited! what ever keeps you happy !!!!

As a former industrial arts major and someone who worked in the VA system as a vocational/teacher/therapist i can certainly relate to your channel. I was fortunate to work with veterans in an industrial arts type of department. I was in charge of the woodworking shop /clinic where we made a variety of small and large projects. The best part of the experience was hearing the experiences and life stories of these veterans and getting to know them on a personal basis. I also have the TAS (tool accumulation syndrome) and need to reduce my inventory. Your ability to put out so much work on your channel is very impressive for an 80 yo. My high school IA department was a great experience for me and i considered it a privilege to be able to be in the "shops" a d avail myself of all of the opportunity to use all of the tools and machinery. I also taught in the public schools and local vocational schools and i understand the challenges of dealing with the immature energy of students as well as those students whose behavior required too many school resouces.

Mr. Pete, The Baby Wilton is a rare find. Can't wait for the Resto. With the mount, Big Bucks. Best, Fred

Interesting haul !

More Tools? Why thats wonderful.Mr. Pete!

My girl bought me a baby bullet on a power arm , and it’s one of my favorite tools in the shop. Nice score!

Mr. Pete! The hobby transformer is the power supply for the morse code keys! It is all together for a reason!

Good haul!

Always enjoy the auction videos. I got outbid on a bigger Wilton vise a few years ago. Thought I had put in a stupid high bid only to have 2 other people outbid me.

That sander looks like it could be adapted to being a crankshaft polisher pretty easy.

I used the crank meat grinder to make venison sausage. We used the corn stripping tool when canning corn. The small pin vises and hemostats were probably use by a model maker or model train person. Same with the tiny saws and knife. The transformer looks like the early type for powering model train layouts but could have been used with the morse keys. The crimper was used on round sheetmetal ducting. A lot of those dividers would have been used in drafting. The calipers would have been used for transferring and taking measurements at metal and wood turning lathes before the advent of modern dial and digital calipers. I think I have used most of these tools except the oddball ones. I also had a carbide head lamp for exploring caves and mines when I was young.

That little dumore is amazing. I had one of that vintage and the motor needed rewinding though.... It was a shame to see it go up in smoke. Yours sounds "sick" 😷

It's utterly amazing to me, the junk that you can find around old farms. AWESOME stuff to sort through though. Thanks for taking us along Lyle!

fantastic hoarder #973, mint condition, read the issue with the introduction of the kryptonite ratchet and the value garden cart

Mr. Pete, you saved the best for last. It looks like they came with fresh cut fries. Now, I want one...or both.

Nicest thing about you going to auctions is I get to see the stuff but you buy it :). There are worst vices in life than auctions,

Hi,I like the action site, too.Get to see all the things this poor fellow worked on.

4:10 Figured out mystery tool candidate, won't spoil it here. Will send you an email...nice haul and the Wilton to boot...

Great auction take! AT 25:09 you have a near complete Vintage J-38 morse key in good looking shape, just missing the shorting lever (for tuning up) and one binding post that you can get from the other one that is missing a bunch of parts. Now to get your Amateur Radio License and start talking CW!

Nice haul. Enjoyed watching this last of the last auction goodies.😂

Love it!

The big thin curved spanner is for adjusting old door closers with a spring . Use one at the school alot .

6:40 is for checking alignment in welding. Can be used for hi/lo on sheets, pipe alignmnent, and so on. It can do weld side, an reach through a root gap to check root side for open-root welds. I use one every day at job two. 11:25 I am weak for calipers and dividers, especially with fine adjust and releases to clear obstructions. you stole the baby bullet. Like I stole my house (less than 1/3 tax value) I love the DuMore. Mine was free, and not worth it due to damage. More than it was worth for the repair parts, but quite useful. 25:25 telegraph key frame missing the key lever. The switch is so when used on a long multikey line, the key can e shorted to allow another key to use the line. Open the switch when you are sending.

❤ the auction videos! Great stuff to be had?

Love it..

Lincoln upright motor generator welder is a good unit. Used 3 phase input power but am told it ran a steady arc. That one would be a 200 Shield Arc model. Lincoln used the same rotating part for the Wisconsin engine driven portable welders they sold to farmers and tradesmen. AL B.

Enjoy the auction videos thanks for sharing Mr Pete

More woodworking tools. at 20:13 you have a tenon cutter for putting a round tenon of various sizes on the end of a piece of wood, frequently used in chair making. And right after it at 20:15 is a tenon pointer, sort of a giant pencil sharpener sort of tool. Makes putting the tenon in the mortise easier. At 20:20 is a tool for sharpening woodworking handsaws, lowers the teeth to the same height.

Tool at 10:17 is to compress the spring on B&S condenser that holds the wire in. The old set that the end of condenser is half the points contact and gap is set by sliding condenser in the one hole clamp.

Seeing that keen kutter sausage machine caught my eye. I used to travel to Wichita KS frequently and I would always stay at the Old Town hotel. It is a very nice restored building that was originally a keen kutter factory or maybe THE keen kutter factory. There were display cases of original keen kutter products in the lobby and throughout the hotel there were pictures of various 19th and very early 20th century scenes of life in the midwest. What would those magnetos be from? Tractors? Early automobiles? I’m sure some collector or restorer will jump on them. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.

Thank you. I love going to these type sales. We have a few here in Easter PA. Jacktown, and Kinzers.

Wow! What a collection. It's too bad more of it had not been stored properly at some point. You made a nice haul for yourself. I am so crowded that I dare not attend an auction. Next month will be our fifty first wedding anniversary and my wife has never attended an auction!

Hello Mr pete, I love watching your tool auctions, keep making these video's, cheers from me. 😃👍👍👍👍👍

keep this up and sooner or later you're going to run out of room at home.....we need to hold a Kaizen Event at your shop for your own good Mr. Pete

That was fun Mr.Pete! Thankyou!

I had a Craftsman 1 x 42 sander just like that Rockwell. I wish I still did. Thanks, Mr Pete!

This video just made my day! Love these

Lots of old but still useful items in there...Nice Oxy/Acet gas welding cart and tanks. Lots of hammers too ! Singer sewing machine was very cool and the homemade sander in the same room. Did see those bench vise's were in very good condition, only needed some evapo-rust treatment. It's really sad to have to be part of those auctions. the only advantage of them are to the seller(s) in that items tend to get moved/sold quickly however, for those who are in the know about the items, they have to bid more than most items are worth because oof other folks in there bidding on items they don't know about and have the money to burn for the fun of it. In the end, after the commissions are paid etc. most stuff sells for more than their value. Someone has to pay the auctioneers ! That baby Wilton has much value...I've seen them restored and priced for big money.

I just love old tools what stories they could tell there is so much quality in the old stuff

OK, I’ll be honest!! I can’t criticise you. Yesterday I travelled to Rochdale (I live in Bolton north of Manchester, UK) and bought a new Makita hand held sander, some Bahco imperial 😢Allen keys (various names across the pond including ‘L wrenches’, ‘L keys’ etc), a set of multipurpose Bosch drills for 1/4” quick release chuck, a Bosch Xlock angle grinder (the blue professional one), several dozen cutting and grinding disks for same, assorted impact posidrive2 bits and much more!! I only intended going for a pair of socks to a local store!!!🥳 👍🇬🇧👍🇺🇸👍

Migth be worth taking a trip to the USA just because of these tool auctions. 😁😁😁 So many cool and interesting things to see. ☺ Thanks for sharing it to us.

Wow, looks like a great time. You are right Sunday was a beautiful day. That is the cutest vice! Even better it came with the positioner. I am really surprised they gave the magnetos away. That was a good eye on the precision drill press. Good video. Hope to see you this summer!

So happy Mr. Pete that your vice's are giting smaller 😇

Don’t stop doing what you like enjoy yourself

Great job. Thank you 😊

awesome!

That baby bullet was quite the score! If going to auctions still makes you happy, keep going to them! We are all very happy to watch!

Thanks for sharing Mr. Pete I love this kind of videos.

Mr Pete .. I was just thinking when i saw the title ... This willll be the last auction .lol Hope you find many more too.

A pleasant way to spend a day. I love estate sales, auctions, and even thrift shops on occasion. My wife started dragging me to these, and I sort of got to liking them, especially if they have tools, sporting equipment, and musical instruments.

I think that transformer with the telegraph equipment was the power supply for the telegraph. Don't throw it out.

you got some awesome finds there mr. pete 👍

Somebody was a woodworker at that place. The tool at 6:20 is a bevel gauge, one of the better type with the hinge lock at the back where it never gets in the way. The cheaper ones have a lever lock at the hinge and depending on the project, those can get in your way. Looks like the locking mechanism is not all there though, pity. The single trammel point also points to woodworking.

The first hack saw you held up looks just like the Klein style. I would bet Klein buys them from that maker or bought that patent. I love the Baby Wilton. I saw someone restore a Wilton and painted it with a hammered green paint from Rustoleom. It was very close to the original color. When digging through the Morse Code keys you had one you didn't know what it was. It was a code key without the key part. Compare it to your working style, I am sure it is the base with parts missing. Great video, love the extra credit video portion as well.

WOW, Loads of Great plunder at that sale. Thanks Lyle...

Awesome get! Still waiting to find a baby bullet in the wild. I did finally get my vintage Starrett vise. I have a Wilton fish hook from '45 but no baby bullet, great find!

Thank you Mr Pete always enjoy watching your videos watching from South Africa

Look forward to more videos and restoration on the parts you got today especially the baby wilton.

Mr Pete one of your vices is more vices. Here in western Canada the live auction is almost a thing of the past. I loved the auction action but now it is sit at home and click the the computer.

Grade and slope gauge is for laying pipe for oil and gas transmission lines that get welded. AL B.

The tool at 6:37 is a high low gauge, we use it in plate and pipe welding to insure the ID alignment is in spec.

Love how you were so excited over your baby Wilton!

I love the magnetos!

Cushman scooter seat box. Possibly for the Eagle model. AL.

Great score on the pin vices and hole punches.

I knew what the cushman tin was right away.My cousin has a three wheeler he's had since to 60s.

I have a keen kutter grinder with a 24ish stone around 2in thick with a seat and pedals and a curved plate to rest tools for sharpening and its in 90% condition other than a little surface rust. It was my great grandfather's and always in a enclosed shop. I actually used it a few weeks ago and sharpened two push mower blades. I normally use a electric grinder but just wanted to use it for fun. The wheels are normally cracked but this one is used but pristine. Love old tools.

The weird tool at 6:30 is a Dearman welding gauge. Used to check hi-lo on the fit up of pipe and other inspection criteria. Used by welding inspectors. That Baby Wilton with the Powrarm is worth $600-$1200 all day long on eBay. Very valuable.

Yes that baby Wilton is crazy nice!

I'm pleased as punch you have a new addition to your brewd of vices. I'm also a proud papa of a baby Wilton vice as well.

Man I wish they had auctions like that around here... you find such good stuff!

I have fixed and reused sanding belts by putting Super Glue on the original tape!!!! Let the glue set up before using. BTW, I ALWAYS loosen the tension on the sanding belts between uses.

I think the hoby transformer is to power model trains, and maybe other powered toys.

Those versa vises are great! That one is worth $200 or so with the knuckle.

I just checked eBay for baby Wilson W power arm they sold for anywhere from $650- $1000

When I type 'my last auction' into the Tubalcain Translator, it translates to 'until the next auction'. I thoroughly enjoy your videos! Takes me back to my high school shop days in the 70's, which are surprisingly vivid in my aging memory. I took them all, wood shop, metal shop, electronics, automotive and mechanical drawing. Paint the baby bullet to match that 4" Wilton vise.

These videos are the best.

That blue colored transformer is to power model train sets.

I have that same Bluepoint hacksaw. They are sold on Snap-on tool trucks. Mine is 25+ years old and still works like new.

Telegraph key base possibly military. Earphones can be used with crystal radios. These are getting hard to find wire was weoven into cotton braid usually ended with pin jacks .

I like the vids when u make things.

Looking forward to the vise restoration.

The old headphones would be good for your Petebay auction so don't toss them in the garbage. Over all you got some good finds.

I would love to have one of those old headsets to use with crystal radio if you ever auction them.

Did you see one of those baby bullets with the arm just sold north of $6k on eBay??? Wild. Put yours up there and recoup your entire auction cost in one swoop. 😎

I went to my first tool auction recently and I felt the same way! (There was a lot of people there with a lot more money to spend than me!). Though I still got some good stuff.

Yes paint it grey

Thanks for another auction video. I thought you were done,so thankful you're not. You did well to get the baby bullet, those are highly sought after.
