Garage Sale Finds

admin

Last weekend was the annual "citywide garage sale" in my small town.  Most of the stuff was the usual baby clothes and junk but I did happen upon a "Guy Stuff" sale.  Several of the "old tractor" guys pitched in together and cleared the bench shelves.My $8 O/A set up  I actually only bought it because I wanted the Purox W200 torch body for the collection.  I sold the bottle carrier to a local HVAC guy for $10 and kept the torch body and the MC to B cylinder adapter.  The regulators are pretty much trashed and I doubt if they are worth having them rebuilt.Weld inspection gauge for 50 cents.  I really don't have a need for this but it will go in the drawer for future reference.Brand new, never filled, aluminum 10# CO2 cylinder for $10.  No real need for this, but for $10 I wasn't going to leave it behind.  It might come in handy if I ever buy a small MIG.Two ARO pneumatic screw drivers for $5.  Both work fine.  RogerOld, Tired, and GRUMPYSalesman will call, Batteries not included, Assembly is required, and FREE ADVICE IS WORTH EXACTLY WHAT YOU PAY FOR IT!Dial Arc 250HFThunderbolt 225 AC/DCAssorted A/O torches
Reply:Sweet deal, especially on the screwguns!I use a CO2 cylinder to run a blowgun, leak test regulators (by using adapters like the CGA 320 CO2 to CGA 580 inert gas) and fill tires or power impact tools away from my shop or when I don't feel like firing up my compressor.You could hang a CO2 nipple and nut on that old oxygen regulator and put an air chuck on the output.

Reply:nice finds...I picked this old dayton up at a garage sale a few weeks ago for $50..
Reply:I bought a Miller Econo Twin HF this week end for 45 dollars. Problem is it is a 460 volt single phase that draws 26 amps.  It says on the schematic that the input lines are 250 thru 575 volts,  exact phrase. I cant figure how that would work.  I'm hopeing someone on this forum knows about this. It came with everthing except the hand operated Hi freq switch.  Mac
