    Yes, that's a confusing phrase. I was planning to buy a new wrench next week but if LinkedXJ has one it would save me the trouble.

    What I would do before I had money for whole sets or I needed a certain size was to go to a pawn shop. You use to be able to buy a single wrench for a dollar or so. Maybe it was a made in china or Japan or kamart one, maybe it was a craftsman, mac or snapon?

    Grumman Aerospace which owned and made the boats and canoes initially, also Gulfstream Corporate jets and busses and mail carriers, crop dusters.
    I was in tooling and R&D and did a lot of work on all the divisions. Grumman did a great deal more than most realize. Grumman built the lunar module, space shuttle wings, all the aircraft on a US carrier at one time, many of which were developed in the 60's and are still on active duty. C2A COD, E2C Hawkeye.

    Bump.

    I'm offering one set of 2 predator mulching blades I misordered. These are for a 36" commercial walk behind. Fits some exmark, grasshoppers, and wood bros mowers.

    Brandy new. See pics for fitment.

    After a recent gigantic truck repair bill, I have to ask you cover your own shipping, but the blades are free.

    I have some spent brass I would let go. It's for calibers I don't shoot. It's not a ton, some 45 and 40 I know. I have no idea of the count but will look if anyone is interested. It's not like 35 or anything but it's also not like 750.

    I will just ask you cover shipping (single income family here) and I will do the most economical way and I can compare all 3 easily .

    I will pay to ship this to you. It’s an 18 volt Dewalt Jobsite Radio. It works as it should. The radio doesn’t have the best reception especially AM, but that’s since it was new. I do have it on Craigslist, but if you tell me you want it I’ll take the ad down.

    Very generous Jack Straw, our battery radio was a family hero during our recent 3 weeks without power! Kind of felt like Roosevelt Era fireside chats.

    I may be late to the party, but my Makita DCS401 can be up for grabs. Runs well, but may need a little TLC and not many hours on it. Long story short my firewood fairy offered to do a tune up on it. Took close to a year to get it back and when I did he lost the bar for it, but replaced it with a 14" from something. Had a falling out with him and at this point, want to offer the saw to someone that will put it to use.

    A very generous offer.

    Your not late. You can offer up stuff whenever you want. We can take this thread into the new year if you like!

    Anyone have a Wegman’s near them? Send me a PM with your name and address and I will mail you a gift card. I think it’s for like $15-$25 I don’t remember. (It doesn’t say on the card.)

    I got it with my new membership with AAA. The closest one to me is over two hours away in Syracuse, I believe. And me thinks I’m not driving that distance through the Lake Effect snow belt to use it! o_O


    I also know I can find a thing or two I intended to put up for this pay it forward thread but just haven’t done it yet.:emb: I will.
