Not exactly a yard sale but darned close. More of an "inside job" Wife's aunt was clearing out old stuff from her deceased husbands horde. Found this Harmon Kardon Citation II Power amp and pre-amp in the pile. Got it for the price of shipping it back to OR ($75). As it sits, original and un-restored it'd fetch around 3k. Restored they go into the 5's
Still has the original Genelex power tubes. Had dust bunnies the size of small rodents inside. It'll clean up nice...

To keep that make a few runs with it. That is super cool

Not craigslist, but my boss had no more use for this PRS-13 mobile bike stand and told me to take it home! Everything works perfectly.

Nice bike stand, Herr Oberst! Never seen one with wheels before.....that's a deluxe model, for sure! :p

This morning I scored a pressure washer from CL.

Seller was only 2 blocks down the street!

It's an older model but in very good condition. I tested it before buying and everything works perfectly.

Came with a 50' heavy duty hose (not in the photo).

$150.

Hit up a couple estate sales today. Whoever this guy was, he had loads of tools. Not much metric, though. But I did walk away with all this for $40.

Been looking for one of those dial indicator things for my milling machines.

$20 at a yard sale. Am trying to figure out what it came off.

varmint 04-29-2018 03:22 PM

I know that. Trying to figure the manufacturer.

Vector (Canada) 71448 10" Table saw from 1988

I don't see any plastic on this thing. The extra large table is cast iron. Only thing missing is the throat plate, and there is a small crack on the fence I can weld.

Free. :)

Just picked up this 84' 300D with only 50k miles on it, ZERO rust, but hail damage. Mostly on the hood and trunk lid, but I have good straight ones in stock. My son is going to replace his 85' 300D that has close to 400k miles on it.

Looks like it's for something with a feather-able prop (large holes).
I'd guess something like a Cessna 310 or Twin Beech. If you take the cone off the bulkhead, there should be a PN stamped/engraved/sharpie'd somewhere.
