Sold some more Erector sets and parts on eBay. Money was burning a hole in my pocket so splurged on a few things. Love it when the postman drives up our driveway with boxes!
First box had 4 sets of Allen wrenches. Seems like I'm always
looking for them in the shop. Now they'll be everywhere.
Next is a new draw bar for my Bridgeport. Pained me to
buy one instead of making one, but for $24 delivered . . .
Went to broach a 4 mm wide keyway in a gear blank. My DuMont No. 70 Metric set was missing
the 4 mm broach. Figured for as often as I'll use it, went cheap and got a Chinese one to
complete the set.
Don't you just love opening boxes and seeing the names "NOGA" and "Interapid"?
Picked up 310 and 312 Interapid DTIs. I have a number of Fowler,
Starrett Last Word, Mitutoyo and SPI (maybe a no-name Chinese one also).
I have to say that these Interapids are REALLY smooth and dead on repeatable.

Off to eBay to sell some more stuff. It's less than 10 F in Michigan today, no shop time until next week. Always more tools to impulse buy for the shop!
