    The portion of a tire mounted under the grindstone was to hold water to keep the stone wet when grinding. Also, very common to have a water drip cup mounted above the stone to keep it wet during use.

      The guy knew what he had. He wanted it to go. I go to garage sales around here and folks asking 90% of retail. They don’t want to sell. When I have a garage/yard sale, I price it to leave. There is literally no point in paying more for something than the seller is asking.

      ⁠@@forthwithtx5852depends on whether or not the seller knows what he has. My honor is worth more than ripping off someone who inherits something and doesn’t know it’s worth. If the seller knows the value and just wants it gone, and refuses my higher offer (it happens), then I’ll take the better price gladly. But I won’t take advantage of someone to gain a huge profit. Too much of that going on in our country - USA.

    What a character!
    My great grandfather had a general store and slate sign shop among other things and it was still intact back in the 50s. Then my grandparents renovated it into a big living room and moved back into it when he retired as a conductor Canadian Railway.
    One thing I noticed was a roll top desk early on that reminded me of the one my aunt left for me.
    Unfortunately my mother sold it.
    I’m feeling quite nostalgic.

I immediately noticed the bucket under the table that caught Alex’s eye and he pulls out a couple small cans to pull the bucket out but then not interested he just slid it back but not right back where he found it and 😂 being OCD myself I 😮but then he turned around and the guy didn’t notice it. ❤✊🏻 to you always Alex!

Sad the children of today don’t wanna hear the stories of their past parents grandparents. Great grandparents, they want to look on their laptops be on social media see how many people like them and it’s just sad because who else is going to carry on the message to other generations, it they will sit on the laptops at social media see how many lights they can get, and it’s just sad again he’s going to carry on the the knowledge of the struggles that they went through in the hardships and love and caring they gave each other and pull their family in their neighbors, their communities or town out of poverty and grew to the older people where if you look at today, younger people are dying younger
