Old chopsaw died been looking for a dewalt one for ages particularly the dws780 as it's got all the bells and whistles most 2nd hand are over 300 but then this one came up for £150 was too big for what the guy needed just want it to go to a good home so I obliged 
35 quid from half a bootfull of scrap at the scrap yard 
With the added bonus of more room in the shed.
Now to look under the house . . . if I apply the "not needed it in the last 20 years, but I might in the next 20" I should be able to create more room there too

"Go to the recycling centre," she said, "don't come back with anything."
"No, dear." He said.
Just a quick clean up needed.
Works too.
Random, but useful.
Useful.
Another 19 in the Shed.
Her words did not apply to me, just him.

If you have the room, you can never have too many roll-a-way cabinet's.

Bought this for £25 at the local boot fair this morning. The seller wouldn't budge on the price, but it was obviously in good nick under all the rust and carp.
After some work with a cup brush and knotted brush it looks a lot better IMO. My partner Sue asked me to find a vice to install in her Abri (shed or shelter) a useful sized brick built space that's that's attached to the rear of her French house.

You were trying to haggle £25 down on a Record no 4???
That's a steal of a price I pay around £100 for a no 4 here in NI. Yes that's for ones which were also stored in a hedge 
It just always amazes me what members here want to pay for stuff.

Looking at the V-notches, it appears that the jaws might be reversible ?

I suppose you're right. My notion of price of this kind of stuff is probably influenced by the fact that I fished the three Record No. 23 quick release vices that I use on the workbenches here out of a skip in West London about ten years ago.You were trying to haggle £25 down on a Record no 4???
It just always amazes me what members here want to pay for stuff.
Yes, the jaws appear to be nicely finished guage plate or similar. All the vices in my workshop have smooth jaws. I still have the statement from when I was a teenager 'vice jaw blemishes on a workpiece are the trademark of a second rate fitter' ringing in my ears decades later.

Sold off a load of my old stuff on eBay recently...old tools just don't fetch much these days.
Shocking really as I was also selling off a load of (what I considered) junk plastic model kits which fetched a good price!
All in all a very odd experience...seemed like some stuff just couldn't give it away!

I was shooting flies and wasps with a pinch of dry sand in my catapult when i was a kid. A cheaper option perhaps. Very effective too i might add.

In niche applications like yours they're genius (although in any cases where a ring spanner fits, now supplanted by ratchet spanners)...
In more general use "speed" actually refers to how much faster they can round off a stick fastener over the previous state of the art for such tasks, an adjustable.

Selling stuff is weird. I've tried selling brand new shoes and got no interest at all (apart from someone asking me if I have them in a different size), but got just over £20 for a pack of three new TDK blank cassettes.
