Facom tools are French.....Great quality. The 117B is about $100 new in US... and yes the spanner and those pins are with it.

My wife and I go to garage sales nearly every weekend, as well as estate sales. I shop for tools, she shops for vintage pottery and glass. Both of us have far more of both then we ever will need, and both my garage and our house are over flowing. But, it’s the thrill of the hunt that keeps us going. We’re both in our late sixties and I want to spend the time we have left doing things we both love.

Glad you are still doing your videos. I don't always get on to check them all out but I do enjoy them when I get a chance. Thanks.

It's not about what you "need" it's all about what you want and also having fun and meeting people. Keep doing what you're doing, we like you're sharing.

I remember how excited I was walking to an estate sale with a load of machine tools everywhere, I showed up by accident on the last day and still got some great stuff. I could only imagine what I missed out on if the leftovers were so good.

Mr Pete ; The adj. spanners I believe were made by Williams and branded Blue Point . The c412 bag was just a universal for many different tools Snap on sold . I was a Snap on dealer for almost 30 years , now retired for close to 20 yrs. Many , many thanks for the fine videos and the priceless education !!!!! Please keep them coming .

I was told once that bluepoint was snap on made outside of the US. And I was told wrong. I was a semi truck driver for a year. Being from the south and only driven in snow and ice once, I found myself in the heart of Chicago driving a 70-foot truck alone. What an experience. Thanks, Mr Pete!

Enjoyed watching you go through that find. Thank you for supporting Samaritan’s Purse.

Thanks, Mr Pete, a nice haul indeed. $5 for the bandaid tin 👍 Those mahr indicators 👍👍

I enjoy you auction and garage sale videos! Keep 'em coming...

I could watch these videos all day long!!! And I too have way more tools than I need, but I will never stop buying them. Thanks Mr. Pete.

A kick ass mother load tool sale if I've ever seen one + most of the items I am currently looking for. Shucks but glad for you!

G'day Tubalcain, I completely get what you say about how much fun it is to hunt down and buy good used tools that you don't need!

I seem to remember you having shown an all-metal Facom handsaw in one of your shop tour videos a few years back.

Love the good sales. Always enjoy your videos.

I hit one of those 15 years back… The Man ran the first jig grinder that was shipped up to Canada. Moore Tools I have his edge finder. He was thrilled to sell it to me when in conversation he learned I ran one. Many tools will virtually last forever. Good find Mr P

New subscriber here, Mr. Pete. Enjoyed seeing your great garage sale haul. All the days my Dad took me around to garage sales in the Naperville area I don’t think we saw a sale that nice!

Nice haul! It is amazing how much enjoyment one can get from a good sale, whether you need the booty or not!

Hello mrpete, I love watching your garage sales and auctions, keep them coming, thanks for sharing with us, cheers from me. 😃👍👍👍👍👍

Some great tools. Thanks for sharing your haul!

Thanks Lyle, great video.

Best content as usual. Your channel and courses have been so great for me over the years learning....and also led me to my obsession of buying vintage tools and machines. Up to 2 Atlas shapers now because of this channel alone😏. Have a great weekend and thank you as always.

Glad you had a great day! Nice load!

Nice finds at fair prices , you never know what you got until you get it home and have time to look at it better.

MrPete, you made some great scores! Glad you're still out on the hunt.

You definitely have my attention on all those tools you bought!

That Facom spanner might work for large snap rings also.

Mitutoyo promo while wearing a Starrett shirt: Priceless ♥

Nice haul Mr. Pete, you did well. Houston Micrometer and Indicator Repair recently serviced my starrett indicator and did a great job.

Mr. Pete...you deserve everything from Mitutoyo! Your channel has changed the world in YTube... Keep doing the things that make you smile and happy...price... "no object"...Many thanks for you time and sharing...

nice, those Maher's operate in both directions without flipping a switch, most of the new test indicators do. Those FACOM's are top quality. I don't like their wrenches, they are boxy with square sides. But the pin spanner is a top quality item, VERY expensive. When I saw the title, I thought you were having a garage sale .. Glad you had a good haul.

Great find Mr pete!!

Good for you Mr. Pete. I actually got to go to one of those once in a lifetime estate tool sales a couple of years ago. I bought more than I should have and not nearly as much as I would liked to have. I can’t say that I need lathe mandrels from 1/4 inch to 2 inches in 1/16th increments but I have them. Along with so many other things that we rattled all the way back to the house.

Nice score. Wish I had time to get to yard sales. It's nice to repurpose things rather than have them thrown away. On the flip side, half of what I buy there just sits in my garage instead of theirs...

Another great video, thank you for your time and knowledge

Great seeing your fantastic finds . The Mahr gauges are really nice👍

Thank you Mr Pete. I'm really happy for you. I know how exciting it is to find a surprise like that. BTW, we have been doing the shoe boxes for many years. Thank you for y'all's participation. PS congrats on the Mitutoyo goodies.

Some very nice finds there, Mr. Pete.

Remember what Walter Brennen used to say. "No brag! Just fact!" That should settle any arguments easily. Great job! I wish we had yard sales with such goodies here in New Hampshire! They are very few and very seldom. Oh well. Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing.

Great video Mr.Pete love the ranting and all the tool action keep up the good work Mr Pete

Looks like you had a good day at the yard sales

That metal Band-Aid box is probably worth $5 by itself to the right person. Yeah, you did good! Wish we had garage sales like this. Down here, they are pretty much junk and rags for sale at a high price! Thanks for sharing, Ken

Mr. Pete, Nice haul. The $5.00 spent on the Band-aid tin of indicators was well worth the price. You can say you paid for the tin box and got the indicators for free. There are tin Band-aid boxes on eBay right now listed for between $4.00- $15.00. Living in Florida, we don't see too many garage sales like the one you attended. What generally happens is the person having the sale had moved to Florida years ago and sold everything before the move. Then if they need a tool after they arrive, they headed to Harbor Freight and picked up some piece of junk which sits in a box (after one use)getting rusty until the widow decides to have a garage sale. I've had luck at thrift stores but still you've got to wade through the Chinese stuff in order to fine something worth while. It's interesting to think of what will be on KZfaq in 60 years. "Antique Harbor Freight Hand Drill Restore" and someone will comment "I had one of those and they sure don't make them that good any more".

Fabulous score!

Oooo I am going to like this video, but we are about to take a six hour trip! I am looking forward to watch this at the hotel! 👍😎👍

Nice haul!

Very good video(as all your videos), 7:07 as far as I know, this tool is for Motorcycle flywheels and clutches, it can also be used for holding other things such as gears and hubs with holes so that you can do/undo the nut/bolt securing them. Facom is a good, respectable and quality brand. In my opinion it is definitely not a junk.

Great finds pete !!! Can't wait for the mititoyo video!!

Ah Lyle, I never thought you’d “sell out”. But I guess it happens to the best of us.😊 By the way, you never talk too much. It’s your talking, even meandering, that we come here for. I’m sure you know, but some may not know that a longer probe on an indicator changes the readings.

Ya just never know! Good score Mr. Pete!

love the videos!

You may not be aware that there is a relationship between Federal and Mahr. Mahr acquired Federal (Providence, RI )in about 1999 as Mahr Federal and products were branded as such. Within the past 10 years the name was changed to Mahr. Mahr is a large global metrology company based in Germany with history going back to the 1800s.

I am glad you went to that yard sale instead of me I would have broke the bank, Thanks for the vide, Mr. Pete you old tool junkie.

Hey, that Starret hat is like impossible to get!

Singer sewing machine oil very good at 1/3 the price. I've noticed that none of my Mitutoyo tools just don't rust in harsh conditions. Not long ago I worked for a magnesium mine which has some chlorine gas floating around that destroyed Starrett tools.

Very nice equipment. He he. I have a soft spot for all sorts of tools and machinery. I try to stay away, because it will bankrupt me. Great video

Keep doing what your doing. I thoroughly enjoy it, as I'm sure thousands others do as well. Ignore the negative Nelly's. "Mr. & Mrs. Pete's Adventures"

Thanks again

When I go to the flea market, it always going to buy something I don't need.

Oh man, I need one of those Facom pin spanners!

I like the new hat😊

your videos are perfect

Keep doing what you enjoy as long as possible! You are not bragging to me.

Yay Samaritan's Purse!

Happy Father's Day!

Thanks

Nice haul

nice score!

Your video doesn't have a Like hand but I liked it. Lucky chap gets all that Mitutoyo stuff

Morning Lyle

Not just America I’m in Australia 👍

Facom is the french Snap-On equivalent.

I wasn't offended when you said "Hello Americans." I'm a North American, I guess, from Canada.

Watching the second time under a different account so you get two thumbs up

Showing and talking about the things you love isn't bragging, keep on making the videos and we will keep enjoying watching them. Thank you!

....the armpit of the nation. Funny. I thought that's where i'm living..

The Mahr indicators are pretty expensive. Granger has a similar model over $300

I got scared for a second when you said today was june 18th. I'm supposed to be out of town at a function on the morning of the 18th. I thought... oh no, I got my days mixed up, and I'm supposed to be 100 miles from here now. Thin I checked the calendar, and my blood pressure returned to normal. Today is the 15th👍😁 Enjoyed the video and... Have a Jesus filled day everyone Greg in Michigan

"Today is June 18th, or something like that." A video from the future!

Good morning

Do you have more Weber Cleveland blocks? I need some for my set, and i have extras

One of the reasons I follow you is that you continue to go to auctions and garage sales after you say you won't go to any more. I love buying stuff I don't need.

🖖

Lyle, I thought that you were doing Petebay to downsize ready for your future demise to save a large estate sale. Here you are stocking up again. Quite daft at your age, especially as you have Brand New Goodies from Mr. Mitutoyo. Regards from Australia

That really is an incredible haul. Good find - those tools went to a good home! I wish I could attend the open day, but just started a new job so cannot get the time off - maybe next time!

Facom is a very good brand, very popular in europe.

I like the Norwegian flag

Maybe a dozen years ago I came across a garage sale that included a lot of machining related stuff, mostly cutting tools. I bought some stuff, but looking back on it now I really wish I would've bought all of it. I could have afforded to back then and I could use those cutting tools right now for projects at home. But I have enough to get by right now so it's all good :) Thanks for posting :)

It is good that I don't live anywhere near you, I would be constantly broke. Thanks for the video keep on keeping on.

Yep, it looks like he hit on the big one 😂

odd, no "Includes paid Promotion" tag in the upper left corner.

What would be fun is if you had a garage sale..You would have people come from all over the world.

I live in Michigan ( close to Flint &Sag ) and there was a time when there was a tool and die shop every mile even out in the stixs...My pawn shop owning friend told me there was a day when quality machinist tools was a major part of his business but, he said now a days he very rarely gets any machinist tools...

Love your Videos Glad you are having fun tool collecting I too have too many tools but I love hunting for Quality Tools at reasonable prices I live in Iowa and love auctions and some garage sales. It's the hunt that's fun Thanks for posting

At a garage sale recently I got a set of 6-32 to 1/2-13 spiral point and spiral flute taps, all new, 6 carbide end mills, all new and a 81pc set of gauge blocks for $40. Those sales are really rare around here

FACOM is the resl deal.

I would say about one in fifty yard sales to hit the jackpot. Often, the goodies are on a table off to the side and no one seems to know what the stuff is. Ahh, like opening King Tut's tomb, you find "things, wonderful things!" It is exciting when you see the markings like Starrett, Mitutoyo, Lufkin, Brown & Sharpe, and Moore & Wright. Finally, how many 0-1" micrometers does a man need? No one has reached that number to tell us.

I know its not, but I like to think that mahr label says "poopy taste"

i’ve got a few Facom tools but mostly Snap-On. I love their hexagonal tube spanners, they look like short fat Allen keys in a dull chrome but they are tubular. just use like a socket with it’s own small handle. Really comfy to use.

As I was taught If you don't need some thing that someone is selling leave it for that poor guy that Cann't afford a new tool it may his day.
