277385 Tony Seo 2023‑05‑22 FS: Mildy May 2023 List 2
Second run of goodies for the month of May.  Got a number of fresh items
for your perusal, both collectible and usable.

PayPal is preferred (if you use it) on all items. It's easier for me to
ship items off of a paid PayPal invoice, especially First Class ones.

Checks and money orders are still welcome.

And remember........da more ya buy, the cheaper they fly!

First contact (that is e-mail, or phone) that says I want it gets it.
Prices do not include shipping.  All items are shipped with Delivery
Confirmation. Insurance, unless it is a big order or a very fragile item
is optional. Just let me know. Also, I am shipping a lot more stuff via
First Class mail. There will be a small amount added to the shipping
cover the cost of the padded mailer. I don't get them for free.

Please put your name and address in the message. Saves time and email
traffic!

C S Osborne No 0150 1 3/4 Inch English Point Strap End Punch. Measuring
6 1/4" long and this weighs 9 1/2 oz unboxed.  This is in decent
condition and was cleaned.  The head has some staining and frosting, but
nothing too bad.  I did touch up the edge a little, but that could stand
some work.  The finish on the body and handle is worn.  The striking end
is good.  This ain't minty, but it's 1/2 the price of what a new one
will set you back.  Just saying.  $45.00

decent condition and was cleaned.  There is a little light patina on the
head, but nothing too bad.  The edge will need a little work.  The
handle finish has some wear and the striking end is good.  This ain't
pristine, but these guys sure do not show up very often either.  $30.00

Millers Falls No 4 T-Auger Handle.  Measuring 15 3/16" long and this
weighs 3 lbs 1/2 oz unboxed.  This isn't signed, but few of these were. 
This is in reasonably good condition and was cleaned.  There is some
wear to the original finish on the head, but most if it is present.  The
jaws are good and have the spring.  The chuck shell is also good with no
cracks that I can see.  The ratchet works in both directions and the
locked position.  The handles have some light dings and stains, but
nothing too bad.  The spinning section on the removable one is good with
no cracks.  That doesn't thread all the way into the top of the chuck,
but it goes in far enough.  This ain't minty, but these guys sure have
been hard to come by of late.  $60.00

long, the head is 1 1/8" wide, the groove is 5/32" across, and this
weighs 11 oz unboxed.  There are 2 different stamped marks on the
handle, they might be user or maker marks.  There also is a lightly pin
punched initial on the one side of the head.  This is in reasonably good
condition and was cleaned. There ain't much in the way of patina to fuss
about.  The head is good overall, the one edge was dressed at some
point.  The striking end has a little mushrooming and I did run a file
over some sharper spots.  This is another one of those tools that are
getting few and far between anymore.  $25.00

light frosting and a few stains, but nothing too bad.  The faces on the
jaws are good inside and out. This is only ruled on the front and those
are all readable.  The locking screw works.  This ain't the fanciest
tool of it's kind, but it is an older one that will get the job done.

Stanley No 101 Model Makers Block Plane.  This weighs 4 1/4 oz unboxed. 
This is in decent condition and was cleaned.  The sides have most of the
japanning, but there are some paint marks that refused to come off.  The
sole has a few small light spots of pitting and a dot in front of the
mouth that looks like a casting flaw.  The japanning on the body is
fairly good save for a few dots of paint.  The cap has a little funky on
the finish.  The blade is clean on the front and there is plenty to work

the design of this tool.  This one just is marked D. B. & S. who were in
business under this name from 1866 until 1892.  This is in very good
condition and was lightly cleaned.  The head has some light scratches
and one small casting flaw.  The rule is clean save for a very light
frosted spot and a user name on the back.  All the edges and corners are
crispy good.  I did not mess with screws.  These guys sure don't show up
very often and a D B & S marked one in this kind of shape is a real
find.  $75.00

Unusual Early Hand Forged Pick Punch Head.  Measuring 7" long, the face
is roughly 1/2" square, and this weighs 9 1/2 oz unboxed. Not signed as
to the maker.  This is in fair condition and was cleaned.  Kinda looks
like a dug piece to my eye.  There is some overall pitting.  The face
has a little mushrooming and the spike end is good.  I'm thinking that
this was used on a strap head tool, since there is no eye, but that's
just a guess.  This is what it is, but it is a neat and very old tool to
say the least. $17.00

all of the plating, except for the pads which have some wear and light

Stanley No 80 Scraper Plane With Orig Blade.  This weighs 1 lb 6 1/2 oz
unboxed.  This is in reasonably good condition and was cleaned.  The
sole has some light scratches and wear, but nothing too bad.  The
japanning is original and about 80% present.  There are user initials
scratched on the front.  The blade is original to the tool.  That has
some frosting and light patina, but it's good enough to use and there
still is plenty left to work with. The blade clamp has a little
frosting, but has all of the plating.  All the screws work and were
oiled.  This ain't minty, but it will get the job done.  $38.00

Early Hand Forged Sugar Nipper.  Measuring 8 1/2" long and this weighs 8
oz unboxed.  Not signed as to the maker.  This is in reasonably good
condition and was cleaned.  There is a little overall light patina.  The
tips are good.  The through the center joint does have a little play. 
This one ain't as fancy as some of these guys, but they sure don't show
up very often either.  $50.00

Brown & Sharpe No 800 3 Inch Toolmaker Divider.  Measuring 3 11/16" long
(from the tips to the top of the spring) and this weighs 3/4 oz

ain't much in the way of patina the fuss about.  The spring and tips are
good.  The nut travels the full distance smoothly.  This ain't perfect,
but it is a top quality tool that will get the job done.  $27.00

P S & W 6 Inch Carpenters Nail Pulling Pliers.  Measuring 6 3/4" long,
the jaws are 13/16" deep, 5/8" wide at the tips, and this weighs 7 oz
unboxed.  This is in decent condition and was cleaned.  There is some
overall light patina, but this is a cast tool and was never finished off
real pretty to start with.  The jaws have some light pitting, but the
edges are good and they close up tight.  The joint is good with just a
little wiggle.  The tack claws are good, but the screwdriver tip has a
little wear. This ain't the prettiest, but it is a quality tool that
will get the job done.  $14.00

wide, and this weighs 11 3/4 oz total unboxed.  This is in decent

off the edge.  The handle is a somewhat recent replacement.  That has
some bits of paint and a tiny check under the eye, but it's solid and
the head is on tight.  This ain't minty, but it will get the job done.
