But, my wife bought a saddle with a nylon latigo. A new leather one from the farm store is about $30. Punch a few more holes in this belt, and it's going to work just fine. I might use the buckle on one of my belts, it's pretty nice.

I had to look up latigo. I found out that there is often a double latigo on a saddle.

The big takeaway, though, I thought it would be pronounced 'la TEE go', but I was wrong!

Listen to Garth Brooks song "Rodeo".
"...it's spurs and Latigo..."

Scored this morning at a garage sale! Got the two hose reels and four jack stands all for only $20.00

[vonsmog]

I picked up 4 of these 3/4hp vacuum pumps that were used in a print shop for only $20.00 each. New they list for over a $1k. My son wanted two of them for doing fiberglass work, and I wanted one for doing A/C in all the cars and have the other one listed on FB marketplace for $300.

Final cleanout of my neighbors estate got a pile of barn wood and a pile of whatever was left in the shop mostly misc bolts and such.

[porsche930dude]

Better still, it's a MG BGT without an engine. Which means it's a suitable candidate for a Rover V8

[porsche930dude]

Yeah its a good one! Same as that its a 67 with red interior. Iv got the original engine in my garage he just took it apart 15 years ago to spruce it up. 70k its not worn out. Probably going to extract the car this afternoon. There is no door so we have to shimmy it out. And two inoperable cars blocking it in. I just hope it rolls

Not the biggest find on here but a win never the less.

$10 for the pair at an estate sale. Started using them the day I bought them.

[1990C4S]

I found this locally for $200. It's a beast.



They go for $750 easily. I thought it might be stolen, but it was a retiring contractor, totally legit.

Found this on Craigslist. It's a 5' spool which I used to replace my 4' spool table that I've had for 40 years. I split it into two pieces, stained and sealed. It's a little shiny in the photo but getting duller as it drys. I paid $100

Free at the curb......

That’s a great score
If it’s stolen Hilti will know if you take it in for repair at their service centre.

It looks almost brand new. Nice score. I've borrowed my neighbor's Bosch a time or two but this Hilti looks much more better.
