Was doing some work here at my house today and noticed a set of shelves curbside at the neighbor caddy-corner, so walked over and brought them back here. A little dusty and a couple boards loose but otherwise in nice condition and I like the style of these.....

Went to a few garage and estate sales this morning . Scored six 10" carbide tipped saw blades in original unopened packaging . All are 60 or 80 tooth for $25.00 total ! Also four ratchet straps still in the package for $5.00 . I was happy 😊

Less than $0.08 per tooth.
Can't beat that.

I don't know what the cost is to resharpen blades but it has to be more than 4.16 per blade . I have a table saw and mitre box that can use the blades . It's all good 😁

Be careful and don't burn yourself when you touch them.

Yeah you should be happy. You made out like a bandit on those blades.
I bought my brother some new blades a couple years ago for his new chop saw. They were not cheap then and more now I imagine.

I've got one of those Irwin saw blades on my Makita saw. I cut through nails (accidently) and it's still 100% sharp. Amazing stuff.

Work was tossing these. 🤷

Nothing wrong with them that some goo-gone won't fix.

I had purchased a couple of those when I was travelling a lot for work. Can't remember the name of the company that made them but they were bullet proof..

Nice score.
Edit: The name came to me this afternoon. Zarges Strongbox. Mine were set up with tool pallets inside.
