Thread: Ebay Droppings Thread.

I notice that the seller invites offers. Wonder what they might be and if any of them include monetary exchange.

and this one even has a side assist handle !!

I fully expected to see the long handled shovel for sale under seller's "other items"

someone has placed a bid. I reckon it was used for sawing pallets for firewood.

The B & D Workmate is probably worth $20 as it doesn't look damaged, just rusty, and separately the saw could go for a tenner.

...suit buyer with a complete disrespect for safety.

Here's a fellow (or lady) in the weeds:

!! (if marked norris, it would be worth about $800 if it had good wood and the original iron)

!! (I sent them a message last night, must've been in a bad mood - that's a $400 plane in the states - horribly shrunken beech infill, U channel or C (whatever you prefer) steel. Norris's final efforts, which actually make a decent working panel plane if everything is still tight, but this plane is a basket case with the infill).

Jeeez..

some of their items are within a factor of 3 when it comes to their price vs. market price.

Here's a nice saw spindle.

A nice Blue saw spindle.

In fact there's not much that doesn't have a coat of lovely blue: the thread, the saw collars, the pulley vee, the grease nipple .

I wonder of there was enough blue left to paint the bearings? It could probably be injected through the grease nipple....

Cheers, Vann.

It looks very nice next to the woods of NZ ruler.
I believe I used to have one of those rulers as a kid.

Team I just found this table saw on gtree. Looks awesome! Has anyone got one or used one of these before. The fence looks interesting and the saw dust bin as well....
