Hey Chris,

Welcome to the porch! I'm pretty new here myself and these folks have
made me feel right at home. Probably the best group on the net bar none.
I colle....uh use old hand tools in New York City. This means that I
live in a tiny space, work on the floor, clamp things onto my kitchen
table, and hold things down with my feet!

Welcome!

BTW-A good tip when trauling for *bay tools: Download the photo of the
item, open it up on your desktop and zoom in. Ripoff artists like to
"airbrush" cracks and welds and this will show up when you zoom-in on
the photo and see that a particular area has an unusual "eveness" in a
particular area. I spotted a weld like this on a rusty #4 recently and
it saved me from much cursing and gnashing of teeth!
