Mrs Bugs scored four large n heavy tubs of old books for $20.00. Still going through them to see what she scored. Many, many old books and even a thick leather bound bible dating back to 1839.

Even scored some vintage Mad Magazines, 1960 and on.

Nice Im always on the lookout for micro machines they are quite elusive these days. This week I did the biggest cleanout iv ever done. My garages are all full. Already took 3500lbs of scrap in and had a big free sale of about 1/3 of it. Everything I got was free. All leftovers of many people picking the stuff already. The guy bought the estate with all the guys leftover junk in it. The best thing I found sofar is this Griswold waffle iron. It was at the bottom of a mouse infested box full of dishes and cheap oil lamps. Theres alot of nickel and dime ebay stuff to sell and a ton of tool stuff I have to sort so thats always fun.

Love the vintage waffle iron! And Bugs...you're killing it with the aircraft and steam punk weapon restomods!

I haven't been doing as much as I normally do, due to time constraints and also just not having the room. But today while on my way to one of my accounts I grabbed these....a pool ladder in almost perfect condition, two perfect condition 2 gal. Lowes buckets, and an oscillating fan that works perfectly!

Bought a 30s vintage Russian helmet off Craigslist. Got this thrown in. Was told it’s Japanese. But doubt it. Any ideas?

My brother gets cars for cheap or free from his mechanic job. This one the ball joint broke a while back. Also has a rusted subframe. Was too costly to fix so he let the shop have it. The back brakes got locked up from sitting there. Now its here.

Couple boxes of old Sci fi novels for free.

Tarzan
John Carter
Doc savage
Conan
Flash Gordon

Doc Savage!

Read a ton of those when I was in middle school. For some reason didn’t keep them when I still have many of my books going back to high school. I’ve collected some original sci-fi of my favorite authors.

Man, if my mother only knew what I was reading back then,, haha (Gor series,,,, cough cough)

Back in 2019 I was working in Nova Scotia and found this cool little coffee house that was also a used book store. Spent many a quiet Sunday buying orig Sci-Fi PBs, caffeinating nicely in a cozy chair, reading away. Was a nice way to recharge from a 60-80 hr week on site, getting ready for the next week.

I read a lot of sci-fi and fantasy when I was a teen, and my mom kept all of my old books. 10 years ago, when we downsized, and I sold all of my old books at a yard sale. I assumed either "I'll be able to buy new or get eBook versions if I want them again." I was wrong, and I wish that I had kept those old books. Most of the time, those old books can be found on places like eBay or through other avenues. I've been able to replace most/all of the books by one of my favorites through one avenue or another.
Yeah, I had a ton of my old books and got rid of them thinking "these will always be available". I was wrong. Many/most are no longer in print, so are hard to find now.

I remember the Gor books.They warped me. And the Vallejo covers were awesome.

Winters are long and dark. Burroughs novels are a quick fun read. Going to enjoy these.,

Killer score....wow! That big old Frazetta art book.....:eek:

I paid real money for that. It’s on the coffee table because I can’t fit it on a regular shelf.

Oh OK.....it fit in so well with the other items I just thought......

I started reading the Conan paperbacks during a summer I spent away at college. Went through the entire series that was available at that time. Also some related literature. This was in '75. Always have a paperback on my night stand and a FF calendar on the wall.

Really nice setting you have there......throw in the Heelers and you're set! :D Enjoy! SmileWavy

Scored this for a crisp $100 over the summer!

Very nice score

Crikey, there is more than enough something for anybody there.

That same $100 got me this. Plus $40 for the Hilti. The Hilti got run over and doesn't have a charger.

Wilton model 746. (Maybe 646? Wilton documentation is hit and miss. I think this was made between '75 and 79?)
The guy wouldn't budge on the price but he threw in the chainsaw and the vintage stapler to boot. I'll clean up that vise and replace this cheap Craftsman that makes me mad each time I use it.
