The generosity of strangers never ceases to amaze me. I reached out on a local community Fakebook group to see if my town had any other hobby machinists. Hoping to make a friend or two. Not only did I make a new friend, but since he recently retired, he gifted me some of the tools he still had but no longer needed. Wow. Just wow. Made my day. I am honored to be the new custodian of these tools.

Latest auction score.
Lates auction score. 18” x 24” grade B surface plate for less than $40. Might need to build a cart/stand for this one. Debating on if I should keep the Starrett 12” x 18” since my shop is on the small size.
