Theose fruit pulverizers work on the same principle as a supercharger like were used in the old GMC diesel engines back in the 50s-70s. Cool stuff all around!
The valve with the 2" pipe threads was to thread into a 55 gallon drum to dispense a thick viscous semi liquid, It could turn off the material in an instant.
My parents were not into shopping. They had favorite stores that they would go to when they needed something. To just idly walk down the street looking at window displays was not in the family DNA. However my aunt Marian would go shopping with her mother several times a week. Most times they didn’t buy anything, but because of all their shopping they when a sale was offering really good deals and would be ready to buy.
Years ago window displays were a way to attract customers to your establishment. “Window Shopping” was a legitimate pass time. Every store up and down main street would have a window showing their goods and services. Around the holidays the windows would be holiday themed.. the good old days.
Another great show. Wish that show was closer, but for me from central NJ, it's a bit too far out unfortunately. A real interesting mix of items, especially that hanging light fixture that I'm looking forward to seeing you restore.
Hi John. That gizmo at 10:00 min mark was to thread into the top of 45 gallon oil barrels. You would then tip the barrel over, and pour the oil into smaller jugs. Dad used to have those for his barrels in the 1960's, and 70's. Finally he started threading hand pumps into them. That thing was a bit messy, and you would have some spilled oil sometimes, but overall they did the job. I'm sure there's probably a couple of them still in the back of the farm shop somewhere.
The thing at 10:00 - 10:45 was more for pouring out of than pouring into. We called them molasses gates. You would screw it into the bung of a drum containing something thick like molasses, 90 weight gear lube or steam cylinder oil. Then you turn the drum horizontal and set it up on blocks or perhaps a sawbuck. When you opened the gate, the contents would ooze out into a waiting bucket or whatever you were catching it in. I haven't seen one in years. Nice find.
Man! It was so good to see Tom Gunn! I really miss his videos. He is a quality guy with a good eyes and puts out real quality content! I hope if he is reading this once he gets relocated he will start making videos again!
Loved the Hardware Store book. I would snatch that up in a heartbeat. $30 - $40 easy. I collect old Popular Science, Popular Mechanix, any of that kind of magazine. I love to read the articles from the 20's, 30's, and 40's. The ads are great too. That was a great find.
Man last Thursday I was working in the Bronx. I finished up around 3.30 - plugged in smithtown in the GPS, No way I was fighting that. Maybe another time. Prob gonna have to take off work!
It’s a shame! Traffic here as you know is just ridiculous. I leave my house at Noon just to avoid it! I would rather relax for a couple hours with Brian than curse the universe on the L.I.E. 🫣😂👍
I've been to Long Island, Hampton Bay was my ex's old home when she was young, unbelievable beaches and the Atlantic was so Blue...thxs for sharing my vote is the chain hoist
Great show. An advantage of a differential chain hoist is that the load may be easily raised and lowered in tiny amounts. Just the thing to shoehorn an engine into a car or assemble machine tools.
Traffic, you say? A half century ago (Dear God!) a young driver was taking me into the City after a job interview in Hicksville. He kept saying he had to get out of the "sticks" as we whizzed past the buildings standing cheek to jowl along the LIE.
Great episode, you covered a lot of ground in this one! I really like the swivel hand vise. I like hand vises but the swivel and wood handle was really interesting. Id have to take a hard pass on the goat yoga 😂 Something about a goats odor, like a skunk you dont forget it.
Great show as always John!! I’d love to see that light fixture and the flashlight done with LED lighting technology. That would marry old and new technology for a custom look!! Thanks for sharing your video with us!! The Old Army Scout…

Thanks John, what a great meet, where to start - love the chain hoist and also the Lantern, who you calling an old timer - paper fasteners are still useful, my wife uses them each year at school making articulated figures with the infants !
Wish we had a front window to display items at the Hardware where I work. Cool book. I don't think I have seen a "Mr. Machine" since I was a kid. Blast from the past. Romanian shovel is a real keeper. Nice video John.
John, You took me down memory lane today! I used to have one of those Mr. Machines,I forgot about that.The hardware book is so cool, I also used to stand and look in the windows downtown for hours as a kid,sometimes they would chase me away, but I could daydream of camping or getting a new knife or the new schwinn bikes. I just saw a guy buy one of those valves (the $2.00) one you showed. We had some like that at the bakery I worked at as a kid you screwed it into a 55 gallon drum turned it on its side and then poured molasses from it. Yours is very nice one and they didnt leak. Your buddy who carves, we used to carve out doves to put on barbed wire to use them as decoys. The lamp looks like the one at the church up the street that hangs over the holy water. The jar of oil I collect cuz thats my last name. And I just bought two packs of 1x30 sanding belts for my Dremel 1731 belt/disc sander. I love how the goat is loving you not the ladies.
I know you got a great lot of fascinating tools, but since seeing that light fixture I forgot what they were... I don't think I could sleep until I started working on that thing!
Hey John, I would love to see the ole chain fall cleaned up and put back into service. I must of pulled over 30 motors out of my old cars using a chain hoist and 3 small trees cut down as a tripod. I'll never forget the night before my girlfriends graduation from high school I blew up the motor in my car on purpose and then remembered I had to be at her house to take her to it and the party afterwards. I got up a 5:00 and cut down 3 small trees with a hand saw (about 4"in dia and 15' long) drilled a hole thru them, put a jack handle thru it with the chain fall in between it and swapped motors from one car to mine. At 5:00 I was showered and at her house, and midnight we were in NY making a beer run. What a day...lol
Wow! That was a tight schedule! You’re so right a tripod and chain hoist will lift so many things. I also have an Asian 1 ton chain hoist and it works great. 😃👍
I always love seeing the coverage of the tool meet. You always seem to "aquire" the neatest things. I couldn't even pick a favorite this time😅. Thanks again and see you Wednesday.
I had a feeling that bar was for automotive work. I thought it was a ball joint separator. I have a Mr. Machine, you may have seen it in the cantons of one of our videos. I’d like to see that light fixture done or the chain hoist.
Hi John, That show did look like a lot of fun and so much to look at on tables and the ground. I liked that Kendall jar, did you buy both of them? What are your plans for the jar. I have filled bottles with sand to look like the original contents like soda pop bottles. Perhaps you can fill the jar with dark sand to resemble oil. I have bought sand at hobby lobby. Another great video!
John I came across another channel for you if your not following already a man named Dean Doherty I feel like he is your channel but for power tools. The amount of broken power tools he has saved whether with actual parts or fabricating repairs is amazing.
@ScoutCrafter I know I was like holy cow this guy is quick and really knows what he is doing. I was impressed at his speed and skill I saw 2 videos he had to mcguyver some repairs being they were so old. I just know you use quite alot of power tools and are into repairing things instead of tossing so figured it would be right up your alley as well.
Wow what a great haul and tool show video, John. It's great to see so many generous viewers donating items to the show. I would enjoy seeing the light fixture restored. 😀👍🏻🇺🇲
I wish I lived closer so I could go to the tool shows and swap meets, but I’m glad I don’t lol. I would buy to much. It doesn’t matter what you restore next it will turn out great. As always thank you for your time and knowledge.
Great show, Scout! The tool meet looks like a good time... even without the goat yoga! 😄You sure brought home a variety of very cool things. Any of those items would be excellent to see cleaned up. I love the sound of those chain hoists. 😃👍
It looked like a great show and that lamp looked like it would be a good project. It might have to be a 2 show project. Thank You for sharing everything. I love it when you go to the shows.
John Mr. Machine was my absolute favorite toy. As you said I would take it apart and my father would have to put it back together. My favorite childhood toy without question.
Excellent haul John.. soon you'll need somewhere bigger to store all that stuff! Perhaps a museum.. J N Curiosities! 😅 What lovely bunch of people you have there, I wish I was nearby. I'd love to see that lamp all cleaned up and rewired. A big job but wow it's cool!
I have a hoist like that in the barn, it belonged to my Grandfather. I believe mine might be a half ton but I'd have to check, I use it to raise stuff into the loft and also often use it to raise the front or back of the lawn tractor when working on it. The lamp is my number one pick for restoration. That Wash Board is in Fantastic condition.
Great haul John! I swear we're into the same stuff. I just picked up the same chain hoist 3 weeks ago at a flea market in Connecticut and it has a chip in the same spot! It was just as rusty as well.
I love chain hoists. When I was growing up Dad used them to pull engines. He had one for 1500 lbs we used when butchering steers to raise them to skin the hides off. I am going to clean them up and repaint them and display them on my garage rafters. 😊😊😊😊😊
Defently the duro grease bar! My grandpa had one of thoes on his ford n8 to turn off big irrigation valves. The other pry end was for digging up covers over the valves which were 50lbs of cast at times. I'm glad to see one of thoes agian since he called it his "poking bar". He was a man of few words and very simple couldn't write a sentence checkmark chicken scratch for a signature. Old sneelocks Dave's family grew up with him. That grease bar would be a treat since he owned and used one and had me fetch it when I was young.
The light fixture then the chain hoist, for my choice of what’s first to work on. My tool collector gene would go rogue on me at a show like that, I would seriously O.D. In that situation. Thanks John, enjoyed the video.
Oops I looked it up and went to make dinner, didn't realize you found it. Internet Archive also has a couple of copies of "The Modern Hardware Store". Okay dinner's in the oven and now I can sit and watch the rest of the video.
Really cool tools at the show. I never knew such a thing as the hinge tool existed. Ingenious, and a time saver for the door hanger. I like old vintage lights, so I vote for a cleanup on the Delco lantern. The ornate hanging light is also cool, and has an art deco look to me.
Hi Scout , That Hammer Looks like A Estwing . That Bar Looks like A Ball Joint Tool even Though It's Not Tapered . Especially With The Pry Bar End on the Other Side. For Checking Ball Joints .
Hey !John vraiment une très belle vidéo 📹 de ce marché. Tu as ramené beaucoup de choses intéressantes,la lampe, la perceuse, les marteaux, le palan etc. Un peu d'humour, le yoga avec des chèvre 🐐, pourquoi pas. 😂❤
I have a Yale & Towne 1/2 ton chain hoist I bought in 1970 while working at a bakery. A man Dave and his wife Bobbie owned the bakery and the womans brother Ron was a milkman that delivered to the bakery. Being a milkman he was out early every morning and picked up a lot of good tools at garage sales. Besides the chain hoist I also bought a Plomb torque wrench and a SK Wayne 1/2 inch drive ratchet set. I still have the chain hoist and a few of the SK Wayne sockets. The Plomb torque wrench is gone due to my lust for money.
Duro 1939 Catalog - Grease Bar "A drop forged hardened tool steel bar, octagon shaped, that will greatly facilitate a thorough greasing of frozen spring shackles. The three leaf capacity fork end is set at a 25° angle to conveniently clear all obstacles under moat cars. Length 30", diameter cadmium plated finish."
Never heard of goat yoga in the UK. My experience of goats is that they have a sense of humour - friend of mine had a goat, if she was feeding the chickens, and put the feed bucket down, her goat would pick up the bucket and put it on the edge of the field, without spilling the contents. It would also creep up on anyone bending over and (very gently) push them over.
Great haul John. Looks like a wonderful show. My Grandfather had a bunch of old chain hoists like that in his shop that he used to work on a lot different things but we also used them during deer season to hang our deer up to make it easier to butcher them. That old hoist of yours brought back a flood of childhood memories of my grandparents place in northern Pennsylvania.
I was a Long Islanders before I moved scout. Did not I ow of the tool meet 😪 I would like to see the lamp or chandalier restored. As a follow on to the exuding hammer restoration - did you use oil based paint for the handle dimples? I tried to respond to last response but could not. Thanks for the info provided.
Hi Chris, for the Estwing handle dimples I used Dick Blick Acrylic paint. The beauty of painting the dimples is it’s below the surface of the handle and isn’t worn off from regular use! 😃👍
You have got to get the DAKE badge mounted. I saw that it didn't fit the casting, but have you thought of offsetting it with a back plate or mounting screws so that it might stand sufficiently proud of the casting? It's just a cool badge. And I would really like to see the light/chandelier restored to functionality if not aesthetics too. Thanks.
Nice haul from the swap meet. I had not heard of goat yoga. I wonder how long this fad will last. I love the hand vise. Nice feature for the head to pivot. Dave.
Looks like a good time was had by all. Mr. Pete beat you with the butt marker. When you said you were going to do laundry I was puzzled by the fact it was for lingerie. Then I thought maybe watching goat yoga got you in trouble. 😝 Chain hoists are handy but like all chains you end up with dirty rust hands. I have never found a good way to clean them and keep them clean.. We used to hook them behind the truck and drag them down a gravel road. Trouble is you ended up with no rust but lots of dirt that you put up with or you hosed them of to return to rust.
You sure made a great haul and I enjoyed seeing the items. Tha KS for the update on Tom Gunn.
Theose fruit pulverizers work on the same principle as a supercharger like were used in the old GMC diesel engines back in the 50s-70s. Cool stuff all around!
Yes! The old super chargers used those same vanes to really force air into the manifold! Mad Max! 😂👍
Wow that drill for a dollar is like the deal of the year🌝
The valve with the 2" pipe threads was to thread into a 55 gallon drum to dispense a thick viscous semi liquid, It could turn off the material in an instant.
Thanks!!! 😃👍
Great show! I’d like to see the chain hoist please. Very interested to see how the chain on that gets restored.

There is nothing like the sound of a chain hoist!
Was a great meet for sure. Really enjoyed seeing everyone! Only a maniac would take home that chandelier!
😂😂😂😂
You have to do that lamp!!!
Tom Gun better build a Florida shop!
Loved the video
Another great show. Wish that show was closer, but for me from central NJ, it's a bit too far out unfortunately. A real interesting mix of items, especially that hanging light fixture that I'm looking forward to seeing you restore.

Nice show today. Glad you saw Tom Gunn I liked his videos, sorry to see him go. I’d like to see that rusty American made hammer restored.
Frank- Tom’s appearance was a real surprise and his awesome wife came too! Maybe when he settles down in Florida he will make some more videos. 😃👍
Long Island looks like a fantastic meet. Would love to go there one day great video John and a great Haul
Traffic, you say? A half century ago (Dear God!) a young driver was taking me into the City after a job interview in Hicksville. He kept saying he had to get out of the "sticks" as we whizzed past the buildings standing cheek to jowl along the LIE.
Some fantastic tools John man I would go crazy I don’t know how you do it 😂god bless take care 🇺🇸🇳🇿🦅🗡️🥶47

I have a hoist similar to that hanging in my garage, unfortunately I never use it. I'd like to see that light fixture brought back to life.
Wish we had a front window to display items at the Hardware where I work. Cool book. I don't think I have seen a "Mr. Machine" since I was a kid. Blast from the past. Romanian shovel is a real keeper. Nice video John.
I'm convinced, Scout: if you don't have one of everything, you've had one of everything!
😂😂😂👍

Wow! That was a tight schedule! You’re so right a tripod and chain hoist will lift so many things. I also have an Asian 1 ton chain hoist and it works great. 😃👍
My vote for the first restoration has to be "Mr Machine " I've never seen one ! Thanks again for the great video
Great finds! I’m partial to the hand vice. That’s a beautiful tool. 🫡
We never seen one like that! 😃👍
I always love seeing the coverage of the tool meet. You always seem to "aquire" the neatest things. I couldn't even pick a favorite this time😅. Thanks again and see you Wednesday.
That was a huge episode Scout. I love chain blocks so that’s my pick for a restoration. Cheers mate, Stuart 🇦🇺
I had a feeling that bar was for automotive work. I thought it was a ball joint separator. I have a Mr. Machine, you may have seen it in the cantons of one of our videos. I’d like to see that light fixture done or the chain hoist.
Chain Hoist! My grandpa had several of those hand operated ones in his Machine Shop when I was growing up.
Hi John, That show did look like a lot of fun and so much to look at on tables and the ground. I liked that Kendall jar, did you buy both of them? What are your plans for the jar. I have filled bottles with sand to look like the original contents like soda pop bottles. Perhaps you can fill the jar with dark sand to resemble oil. I have bought sand at hobby lobby. Another great video!
I didn’t buy the oil jars but found them super interesting! 😃👍
Remember the amazing smell that an old school hardware store had ?
John I came across another channel for you if your not following already a man named Dean Doherty I feel like he is your channel but for power tools. The amount of broken power tools he has saved whether with actual parts or fabricating repairs is amazing.
I saw his video pop up on my algorithm! He repairs them so fast!!! He really knows his power tools. 😃👍
@ScoutCrafter I know I was like holy cow this guy is quick and really knows what he is doing. I was impressed at his speed and skill I saw 2 videos he had to mcguyver some repairs being they were so old. I just know you use quite alot of power tools and are into repairing things instead of tossing so figured it would be right up your alley as well.

That lamp would look great hanging from that chain hoist. Awesome stuff. Cheers
Enjoyed the show. 2👍👍up
Have a Jesus filled day everyone

Great show, Scout! The tool meet looks like a good time... even without the goat yoga! 😄You sure brought home a variety of very cool things. Any of those items would be excellent to see cleaned up. I love the sound of those chain hoists. 😃👍

John Mr. Machine was my absolute favorite toy. As you said I would take it apart and my father would have to put it back together. My favorite childhood toy without question.
Great Episode and really enjoyes seeing Mr Tom! He better stock up on some sunscreen lotion and a good umbrella 😂
Please do the Mr. Machine really cool toy, I had one when I was growing up.
John , that beautiful old light fixture is my vote. That might be a 2 parter to get that thing back in working and safe condition. Very cool! 📽👍🇺🇲
The "fill valve" is called a molasses gate. It is used to drain thick fluids like 90 wt Gear lube.
We had them in the oil barrels at Borg Warner.
I would like to see the hammers refurbished.
Excellent haul John.. soon you'll need somewhere bigger to store all that stuff! Perhaps a museum.. J N Curiosities! 😅
What lovely bunch of people you have there, I wish I was nearby. I'd love to see that lamp all cleaned up and rewired. A big job but wow it's cool!
I have a hoist like that in the barn, it belonged to my Grandfather. I believe mine might be a half ton but I'd have to check, I use it to raise stuff into the loft and also often use it to raise the front or back of the lawn tractor when working on it.

Great haul John! I swear we're into the same stuff. I just picked up the same chain hoist 3 weeks ago at a flea market in Connecticut and it has a chip in the same spot! It was just as rusty as well.
Scott- that chip is very common on those chain hoists! 😂👍
Always an education, love the butt gauge, amazing . I need a copy of the book, incredible , great video
❤
Ya gotta get that fantastic lamp restored ! I can't wait !
I love chain hoists. When I was growing up Dad used them to pull engines. He had one for 1500 lbs we used when butchering steers to raise them to skin the hides off. I am going to clean them up and repaint them and display them on my garage rafters. 😊😊😊😊😊
Got to like a chain hoist. You can lift a lot with little effort. You can move something up or down with a lot of control.
Absolutely! I remember the first time using one I was hooked!!! 😂👍
Defently the duro grease bar! My grandpa had one of thoes on his ford n8 to turn off big irrigation valves. The other pry end was for digging up covers over the valves which were 50lbs of cast at times. I'm glad to see one of thoes agian since he called it his "poking bar". He was a man of few words and very simple couldn't write a sentence checkmark chicken scratch for a signature. Old sneelocks Dave's family grew up with him. That grease bar would be a treat since he owned and used one and had me fetch it when I was young.
Awesome lamp.
That bar is called a grease bar. I'll send you an image in an email. I found it in a 1939 catalog. I shoulda waited til the end! Lol!😅
The light fixture then the chain hoist, for my choice of what’s first to work on. My tool collector gene would go rogue on me at a show like that, I would seriously O.D. In that situation. Thanks John, enjoyed the video.
Oops I looked it up and went to make dinner, didn't realize you found it.
Internet Archive also has a couple of copies of "The Modern Hardware Store".
Okay dinner's in the oven and now I can sit and watch the rest of the video.
14:03 Brass Fastener! Bet I haven't said that phrase since I was a kid in elementary school in the 70's.
Really cool tools at the show. I never knew such a thing as the hinge tool existed. Ingenious, and a time saver for the door hanger. I like old vintage lights, so I vote for a cleanup on the Delco lantern. The ornate hanging light is also cool, and has an art deco look to me.
Love the butt gage! The other thing is an industrial tuning fork.😊
Great episode Scoutcrafter, so many really interesting things, I'd have bought the lot! 👍👍🇺🇸🇬🇧✌️
Hi Scout , That Hammer Looks like A Estwing . That Bar Looks like A Ball Joint Tool even Though It's Not Tapered . Especially With The Pry Bar End on the Other Side. For Checking Ball Joints .
Hey !John vraiment une très belle vidéo 📹 de ce marché. Tu as ramené beaucoup de choses intéressantes,la lampe, la perceuse, les marteaux, le palan etc. Un peu d'humour, le yoga avec des chèvre 🐐, pourquoi pas. 😂❤
The light fixture is what I like to see done
Lots of amazing stuff. Looking forward to the restorations.
I have a Yale & Towne 1/2 ton chain hoist I bought in 1970 while working at a bakery. A man Dave and his wife Bobbie owned the bakery and the womans brother Ron was a milkman that delivered to the bakery. Being a milkman he was out early every morning and picked up a lot of good tools at garage sales. Besides the chain hoist I also bought a Plomb torque wrench and a SK Wayne 1/2 inch drive ratchet set. I still have the chain hoist and a few of the SK Wayne sockets. The Plomb torque wrench is gone due to my lust for money.
Fantastic episode. I am looking forward to the entrenching tool restoration.
Great idea on the chuck key taped to cord. Small length of chain, near plug...less strain on cord, but you still need to unplug to use.
In the early 70's Craftsman drills came with a rubber key holder that attached to the cord so you didn't have to tape it.

Great things to been seen in that video. I loke the door hinges marker very much. Thanks.
Small world!! The woman teaching the goat yoga class turns out to be a close friend from when I lived on LI.
Friction tape. And they still have it at hardware stores.
Would like to see the light do next but what ever you do it will be great
Great video again, I'd love to see both the large valves getting done as I think that would be a challenge lol.
John, I have a similar bar from a different manufacturer, I believe it is for wrecking pallets
Never heard of goat yoga in the UK. My experience of goats is that they have a sense of humour - friend of mine had a goat, if she was feeding the chickens, and put the feed bucket down, her goat would pick up the bucket and put it on the edge of the field, without spilling the contents. It would also creep up on anyone bending over and (very gently) push them over.

Great show 👍 but you know me I am going for the red lantern to be the first 😂
Great haul John. Looks like a wonderful show. My Grandfather had a bunch of old chain hoists like that in his shop that he used to work on a lot different things but we also used them during deer season to hang our deer up to make it easier to butcher them. That old hoist of yours brought back a flood of childhood memories of my grandparents place in northern Pennsylvania.
Hi John. That fancy lamp for sure. Great video. Love when you go to those shows. So much to see. Have a great day. 👍👍❤...
Looks like a great show to go to. Thanks for sharing
Wow, did your vehicle have enough room to bring everything home? Great stuff. I want to see the chandelier restored and lit up. Thanks
The chain hoists. Bit of jb weld and a dash of scoutcrafter red. Ba-ding!
Chain hoist , I have two hoists love to see what you come up with on cleaning them up.
At first, I thought you said goat yogurt, but your goat yoga video straighten me out.
Need to clean up the chain hoist and repair the chip in the pully. Great welding project when you get your welder.
In Sweden those clips are called virgin legs,
I just like it when you do the restorations, also like the poor man's flea market, and I believe you call it jack town Market eagle
I was a Long Islanders before I moved scout. Did not I ow of the tool meet 😪
I would like to see the lamp or chandalier restored.
As a follow on to the exuding hammer restoration - did you use oil based paint for the handle dimples?
I tried to respond to last response but could not. Thanks for the info provided.
Hi Chris, for the Estwing handle dimples I used Dick Blick Acrylic paint. The beauty of painting the dimples is it’s below the surface of the handle and isn’t worn off from regular use! 😃👍
You have got to get the DAKE badge mounted. I saw that it didn't fit the casting, but have you thought of offsetting it with a back plate or mounting screws so that it might stand sufficiently proud of the casting? It's just a cool badge.
And I would really like to see the light/chandelier restored to functionality if not aesthetics too. Thanks.
Nice haul from the swap meet. I had not heard of goat yoga. I wonder how long this fad will last.
I love the hand vise. Nice feature for the head to pivot.
Dave.
Looks like a good time was had by all. Mr. Pete beat you with the butt marker. When you said you were going to do laundry I was puzzled by the fact it was for lingerie. Then I thought maybe watching goat yoga got you in trouble. 😝 Chain hoists are handy but like all chains you end up with dirty rust hands. I have never found a good way to clean them and keep them clean.. We used to hook them behind the truck and drag them down a gravel road. Trouble is you ended up with no rust but lots of dirt that you put up with or you hosed them of to return to rust.
I think you should put some globes on that lamp
