Arlington Auction (tools)

Closing today starting at 7 PM, pickup tomorrow (Saturday.)

Looks like estate residue. Many old tools (like corded electric in metal housings) - old files (should be pretty good) and what looks like useful shop stuff.

I’m not bidding because I can’t pick up in the window allowed.

Includes a Shape-Rite Shaper if you are into vintage machine tools.

If there is something that you want to bids on, I can pick it up for you.

Thanks for sharing! I can maybe arrange to pick up (reasonably sized) items and bring to DMS if you need?

We may have different definitions of “reasonably sized” :wink: But thanks for offering

Boy oh boy that shaper is tempting.

Probably go cheep

But maybe not as cheap as I expected. Already at $655

845 is what it went for.

I ended up winning 49 of the 450 lots. Pretty sure I was bidding against a few people I know from DMS. Got most items really cheap but a few went higher than I had hoped. Was trying for the Wilton bullet machinist vice but I was juggling too many tabs and it got away from me when I got outbid the last time. The shaper went way higher than I thought it would. Was going to try and grab it if it had stayed below $500. It will be a huge haul tomorrow when I go to pick up everything I won.

I also bought a few items - now where to put them…

I got caught up in something and didn’t catch that I was outbid at the last second on some of the warehouse/packaging supplies I was going for!

The items I did win are pretty small (air hose reel being the largest) - any chance they could hitch a ride with someone doing a pickup today? Happy to add a tip for the trouble.

If not and I drive down I’m happy to bring other members’ items to DMS as long as they fit in my pickup (just a bit of a trek from The Colony).

Thanks all!

P.S. Unless it’s for charity I don’t want to bid against y’all again. :stuck_out_tongue:
