Title: Estate sale find
Post by: bmwrd0 on November 03, 2018, 09:20:42 PM
Went to an estate sale yesteday, not that they showed anything I needed, but I saw a pic of some sort of vintage socket set in the one pic of the garage. It was a Plomb pebble 1/2 set but they wanted way to much for it, but the garage was more packed with goodies that I thought. There were some nice things (there was a very nice timber slick) but it was first day prices all around. Went in the main part of the house on the off chance there was something interesting, and found more tools! Among those tools was this:

A near complete Hinsdale refrigeration set. Both the 9/32 and 3/8 sockets along with the refrigeration socktets and both adaptors. $25 and I didn't even blink at paying that. Here are the extras that were in the set:
