I found a new favorite store today. A few days ago I noticed it opened up in an old empty building in the small town that I live close to. What caught my attention was a mounted fox in the front window with a monkey on its back. I stopped in today and checked it out. It is kind of a second hand store. There was a lot of antiques, DVD's, Albums and furniture. He has a lot of old tools and some newer ones. There was a 5 gallon bucket fool of files and rasps. I dug through it hoping to find a #49 or #50. He said some guy came and bought a bunch of the Nicholsons. I picked out an old Craftsman coping saw that looked almost new. I asked about drawknifes and he said he had two but they were both gone. He mentioned that he was getting a big Grizzly bandsaw next week. I told him to get used to seeing me becase I would be stopping in once a week to see what new stuff he has. I can't wait to check out that Grizzly, to bad I can't afford it :'(

Steve, I got an almost new 12" craftsman off of Craigslist last year dirt cheap so I really don't need it. I will definitely check it out and try to get a picture of it. I'm going to give the guy my number and have him call me if he gets any drawknifes in.
Cipriano, I take it you are a fan of Dion Sanders and the dog riding monkey ;D

So now you just need to find out who is competin with you for tools! Any old copper soldering irons? I really have a love/hate relationship with those kinds of stores. Of the higher priced ones my dad says they like thier junk too much!

I would give him a $50 and a wink. Tell him to save all his rasps and draw kinives for you once a week to sort through.
