Today kicked off the Jacktown Summer 2019 Steam Engine Show and Flea
Market. The weather is calling for nasty hot, and it was already 75 F
degrees with 105% humidity at 7:00 AM. There were some clouds and a
light breeze that helped a little but the weather kept the dealer count
down and a lot of the exhibitor spaces out in the show area were empty
as well.

With the low vendor turnout, pickings weren't great. I got a Stanley
Rule & Level No. 921 brace, a 10" Stanley No. 20 try square, a Stanley
caliper rule, Starrett pin vise, a wood handle pin vise, a patented
outside caliper made by Union, a brass glass cutter with the side
cutting attachment (uncommon), a P S & W 8" wing compass, a cabinet
makers turnscrew, a W Johnson rivet set, and a Gomph leather tool with a
funky handle.

There wasn't much in the way of hammers around, the top one is a
Nantucket style cooper's hoop driver, next is a funky big cross peen
hammer, next is a regular cross peen, and last is a blacksmith straight
peen hammer.

Hopefully tomorrow there will be a few more vendors to pick from. But
who knows
Tony (hot, hot, hot)
