Can we agree on this ? Whoever doesn't like a benchvise is not normal . Well done on the filming Abby ! 🙂

Abom & Abby! A winning combination. Give that woman a camera!

Gotta say. The tables were the most organized and neat of any swap meet I've ever seen. Nice scores!

Truly, a man of many vices.

It’s nice to you two having time off and enjoying yourselves.

Hi Adam just a quick note to say I recently discovered your channel and to say I enjoy your videos very much. I'm a retired machinist myself and I always have an understanding of what you're doing, it's clear you know your stuff and I find your vid's very entertaining and informative. I wish you every success for the future. Dave, Norfolk UK

That Mitutoyo will be great for KZfaq videos with that big dial. Easy for us to see 🔎Cool video!

Adam: That tool box was made by a sister company of Gershner Tool box Co. They stop making about 1940. You can buy the felt from Gershner and the correct hide glue. I refinished one like that and that how I found out the information. The one I fixed was not in as good as yours, it look showroom quality now. Good luck

When Kieth Rucker said it was 100 acres, I thought there was no way that was possible. But that place is huge!

Thanks for posting Adam! My Dad had a Colombian vise. I ran a lot of projects through that vise as a kid. Brought a tear to my eye remembering that old vise, but my Dad's wife gave a lot of his stuff away after died and before we could get a court order to stop her. Someday I'll have a vise like Dad's again !

Very nice video. Abby does a great job filming, so next to a life partner you also have a great camera person!! I'm happy to see you two happy and relaxed. Enjoy life, have fun. Greetings from Brussels, Belgium.

I was so glad to have you down here so you could share in the flywheelers experience. I'm glad the Hartman vise got the SECOND best home it could ever have. You wouldn't have got it if I had gotten there first, but I guess that's what I get for helping Keith Rucker buy up all the Eagle 66 Oilers. Be sure to say hi to Stephen Cox for me......

use an old candle to rub the drawer slots on the tool boxes. it protects and makes them slide really easy.

That dozer could very easily be equipped with a some cameras and radio links for them; tell me that wouldn't make clearing the snow off your driveway more fun. Thanks for taking us along!

Wow, that cam lock vice is awesome!

Funny to see Keith in civilian clothes. Looks like a awesome swap meet, I love myself a good haul.

Adam & Abby, Nice scores thanks for sharing.!.!.!.

You’re looking great Adam... slim and strong ... awsome finds !

drooling some of the coolest stuff ive ever seen..gonna watch this 6 more times once i get to work

Nice finds, looks like a great time was had. Thanks for bringing us along!

Awesome score. Looks like Florida flywheeler wheeler show was huge. Thank you

"Fleur de Lys", so cute the way Abby said that. Nice collections of old-goods and treasures you got there. Cheers from France !

I never knew they would have swap meets that big. Wowza! Thanks for sharing that one.

Great video Adam and Abby, some great finds too

Thanks for sharing the Florida Flywheelers

I'm happy to see you wearing a seatbelt Adam! Ever since I saw a wreck where a man was bent backward in half I've been keen on wearing mine.

What a huge selection of tools! My friends and cousins over in the USA, you are lucky people and I wish I could have been there with you.

Great Trip Adam! Thanks for taking us along for the ride, and Thanks for the great camera work Abby!

That looks like a heck of a great time! Gets me jacked for Summer! Thanks for bringing us along.

Wish we had shows like that in the UK. Enjoyed your film guys 👍

Thank you Adam & Abby for sharing ! Lots of very cool stuff , and Abby will have a great jewelry box! That Hartmann vise is pretty cool! Can't wait for next video that you took showing more of the swap meet!! Thanks Again Adam!👍👍👍👍👍

Swap meet in a golf cart? Tools as far as the eye can see? That's what heaven looks like

So much cool stuff. I'd love a couple of those anvils and vises. All those Oliver tractors are cool too. A very close friend of mine just lost a dozen Oliver's in a barn fire including a 880, 777, 66 super and some other beautifully restored pieces. He and his brother are the local Oliver experts.

crrrk ... Nice Tapwrench at stand 1304 ... crrrk over ! 😃 Awesome Swap meet and vise haul video. thanks for taking us with you

That was a cool swap meet . Now I’m looking for a Hartman vise! Thanks for sharing you two .

😁 I'M FIRST! Such a great time! It was very nice to finally meet Abby. She is awesome!

Great job with the camera Abby

Awesome video !! Love all those old things . I love the hit & miss engines and the old tools . Ya it is a little cool up here in maine is 23 ' right now and we had 10 " of snow yesterday but spring is on the way !!😊😉 Thanks for sharing your time with us !! Have fun at the show and hop you & yours have a great day !

Great finds! Thanks for sharing.

Enjoyed the vises, you got some nice ones! Wooden Tool Boxes always cool!

Hey Adam, great to see you and Abby out and about, rooting out the bargains and sharing the experience with us.

Love these type of videos Abom!

What a monster! Thanks for the fun video!

super great share , I sure ENJOYED ! .. Thanks Adam & Abby

Good filming Abby!

I think it’s really cool that you and your wife can go do stuff together and you both enjoy it!

I'm drooling... Over tools.... Love the music too - great choice! Wish I had known about that swap meet, I'm an hour away and I need a vice!

14:10... oh man !!!!! That is so fun!! Great build !!! A little D6..... LOL. I LOVE IT !

At auc tion coupla years ago i picked up a 4x8 ft x5/8 in welding table WITH AN OFSETT 6 inch vice for $200.00 that was the win of the year for me. Cheers Adam.I cant even lift one end of that table. Real solid.

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

That rear moving vice looked awesome!

Very awesome scores. Glad to see your girl out there with you.

Hi Adam, a common trick with furniture is to use white candles and wax the drawer slides. Would probably help the homemade box alot. Envious, looks like ya'll had fun! Thanks for sharing

I have one of those Lufkin Boxes from my great grandad. Its still filled with his daily tools from when he was a tool maker in Detroit and Saginaw back in the 1940's. I never really knew that lufkin was in the Machine tool business until I took a look inside there. I just thought they made rulers and tapes.

I'm a tool geek too those vises were awesome. I like that Lewis alot.

Love that place. A lot to see and do .

Paraffin works really well to lube the drawers. Put it on both the slide and the dado. It lasts forever, and they will be smoother than ball slides.

Looks like you two had a good old time. Keep them coming.

Really cool stuff thanks for sharing.

Good swap meet. Lots of interesting things. Got yourself some good items there.

Nice Treasures. Love those videos!

Wow !! So much cool stuff and tools. Probably a good thing there's nothing like that here on the west coast. I'd have to start moving the furniture out of the house to make room... LOL

Abom or anyone! I have a beautiful Starrett Athol model 323 1/2 bench vise I have restored. Unfortunately, I somehow lost the swivel clamp lock for it during a move (it baffles me, but somehow it is just gone.)... I'm on the lookout for this part which so far has been impossible to locate... If by chance anyone has this part, runs across this part at the swap meet/garage sale, or happens to run across one of these vises in poor shape where this item can be salvaged from it for parts.... Please respond to this comment! I'm seriously on the hunt!!! Thank you! Love your aura and work Abom,. Thank you for sharing this timeless Americana!

OMG that swap meet looks HUGE! You got some cool stuff. I've got to get down there some day.

Swap meets, flea markets, 2nd hand stores and garage sales are always an adventure.

The ice cream makers are my favorite. That's the first time I have seen a pastel pink tractor. lol If those old tool chests are in daily use for a few decades, they pick up a unique odor of the shop. That's occasionally a pleasant, nostalgic scent, and occasionally it's mildew and mold. (edited to correct drunken typing.)

Thank for taking me on your trip.

I had to laugh when I seen all the vises on the bench. I thought maybe you broke in my shop to take video. Lol. You are right it is a great hobby and it’s very fun to find something that you are excited about and then to get a fair price on it. That’s what’s keeps me up at night. That’s my Disney world dream. Ha. And make sure you tell Your fiancé we really appreciate her being in the videos and helping record.

If we would have meetings like that i would buy every socket every wrenches everything i could get 🤣👍👍very cool video

Your Lufkin tool chest is a EXACT match to my great grandfathers H.Gerstner & Son's tool chest out of Dayton, Ohio. He was a gold smith and used it as his traveling show case to show his rings, pendant's, chain's and gold script's (hand bent gold wire in a name or logo). I still have the box and today it houses the family coin collection with a few of His gold rings, my favorite being a LARGE yellow diamond with a rare cut in a gold band with silver inlay with 2 side diamonds. Someone must have been kicking these boxes out for different companies, the only differences I can see between yours and mine are the names on the locks and the builders plates! EDIT: so typed H.Gerstner & Sons into search engine and they build fine wooden chest and are still in business! So sublet to Lufkin perhaps? PS: Your gunna wanna check out theyre web site and KZfaq CHANNEL! hehe 8)

Must say i do notice the change in your figure Adam. Keep up the great work man.

That's it! I am going to make my way up there next year.

On Abby's box, you might sneak in some HDPE slider strips on the side of the drawers to work against the metal non moving part to prevent any further abrasion and to make for silky smooth sliding. Those are some really nice looking hinges, lots of character... Good eye, Abby! I have several boxes full of hinges from auctions, not many are that nice.. Great video as usual. Envious of the vises, they are one of my vices.. LOL.. Michael in Colorado. Currently16°F @ 4mph SSE.

Keep this up Adam, name change soon: 'Booth Machine & Tool Shop.' lol Cheers Abbie.

Great footage!

You have a vice for vices! Good score👍🏻

Man, I would have been like a cat on a shrimp boat at that swap & shop. Very cool.

Tap wrenches has a special place in machinist's heart

I’d love to find a small 4-5 inch vise from the 30s or 40s. The craftsmanship is just beyond compare. Awesome scores.👍🏼

hello you two, perfect couple so happy for u , best regards from Norway.

Good to see Mechanic Steve!

So nice to see you going to show down south. Will run into you some day. I will one day get a huge nice vice as you did. What I really like is the real nice large shaper machine you have in the background of the video. Keep up the great work Adam. Drop a line when you can. V

Good to see a man not afraid to indulge his vices in public ...

A well equipped shop should have a vise every 2 feet!!

I’m just a little overwhelmed DAMN

Adam, Fantastic show! Probably a good thing I am in NJ and not Fla.. I have been looking for a decent two or three hundred pound anvil and that kind of stuff just does not show up around here. Down there you have them by the ton, literally! Great score on the vices, Just this past week I restored one of those same Colombia vices.

8:12....weird sizes, like 1/2!!!! :) great video thanks for sharing.

I feel like I need to go to this swap meet You guys were literally in my back yard. Nice. Magic Kingdom is about .75 miles from my front door

Look like a good tme was had very cool and nice haul.

I just cant help but smile seein you and abby drivin together, talkin Bout your adventures. Goals man, goals.

Man I could spend a week down there. And spend a fortune too!

Adam & Abby, the new vice squad!

You will need a larger shop soon! Great stuff and really cool vices.

Nice finds Adam. 👍

great finds! on Abby's box, first try this trick, "OOOO" steal wool (very fine) and furniture oil polish, a liquid gold would do just fine to clean up the wood and if there are any labels just take care cleaning those places of course. good luck and have fun! Oh, for the drawer slides just rub some wax in there and they will smooth out

Looks like Florida has all the good tap wrenches. Wish I could get one like that here in the U.K.

good video, great finds

Tell Abby love the hat. Big Atlanta Braves fan myself. Thanks Gary.

i collect lufkin tools, that box blew me away a bit. gonna have to find one now haha. awesome stuff man

Nice!! Great video!!
