So what did you buy today

[singinwoodwackr]

A truck
2019, f150 Lariat with lots of goodies for an old phart

On the way home...loaded it up, lol

Paid for a Fin-Nor Lethal 100 frame.

I hope it shows shipped soon. Really want to have a spare.

Dang,.....something went right.
Ordered Mon,.....received a few minutes ago. (Wed.)

$12.22 for the part and 7 bucks shipping. Up from $9 something in 2015
IIRC,... I tried ordering a couple yrs. back and no one had it. Thought I missed the window.
Reason for need,.....I modified my frame (foot) to aim at collector guide on a 12' surf rod. Originally config. was pointing at rod blank 2/3's the way to the guide being it's a boat reel,......and possibly the only real weakness of the reel (some have broken,...smear campaign or not).

Currently only Mikes reel repair in Canuckistan shows having,......$23 something plus shipping,......except they won't ship to US anymore.

Amazing that something that should be sooooo mundane and common, feels like such a huge WIN in clown world.

Respect to Platinum Parts and Services in FL.


....well who else was I gonna tell?

lol

Good news: Goodwill was ‘target rich’ in cast iron, and other cookware today!

Bad news: they lowered the Wednesday ‘senior / first responder’ discount from 25% to 10% .

so, they were $3 instead of $2? bummer

Walmart special hitch. There’s a reason it’s $41 but it should work for what I need it to do.

I bought another Mac meusoc .45 1911
Excellent pistols imho
they went about 50% off down to 400.00
And will no longer be available I'm told.

 

[sawnami]

Picked up a folding drag saw. Around 1915 vintage.
Also got a Mono 7-20 that has a AH-81(131cc) Power Products engine and a Pioneer 1073.

What are the geared "pincers" for? Some sort of stroke length trigger?

 

[heimannm]

That's how it grips the log.

Chinese $3 drill, the cord fell out of the brush. A strange case, little used, 20 years old

 

[legdelimber]

Thanks Mark.

That's how it grips the log.

There's probably a doodad or three on our new to us 2021 Lexus that I would appreciate if I bothered to find them. Mostly am looking up how to turn doodads off.

My favorite 1911 grip you can get only the pachmyer side panels if you prefer or
A wood sides rubber wraparound version
I like the wraparound like this
They were very popular in the 80s/90s in the idpa and silhouette/bullseye sports here
They are 40.00 or so on amazon the cheapest I found them.
