    Update: We have sold approximately 75% of the tools in this box, but the box itself and some of them are still for sale!

    I'll try to recap some of the tools in the video that you weren't sure of:
    The pointed ended saw is a "keyhole saw"
    The auger bit with the ruler on it is an adjustable auger bit. They were more of a novelty than a usable tool.
    The last Stanley black plane looking item was actually a cap for a block plane. On its own its useless.
    The bits are called auger bit
    The first "drill" is called a brace
    The small drill is an "eggbeater drill"
    Some of the items you thought might be irons of some sort were a mix of irons and at least one depth stop for the Stanley 45
    The planes, in order of length were block planes, Stanley or copy of a Stanley 4, 2 Stanley 5s, A Stanley style 6 and 7.
    The axe/hatchet is used for shingles and shakes
    The plyers you mention towards the end are actually blacksmithing tongs

    Several years ago, I found two large tool chests at a yard sale $500 bucks for both of them. One belonged to a pattern maker and the other belonged to a furniture maker/joiner. I've still got a lot of the tools, but my wife sold quite a few on eBay back then. Made over $2,000 bucks.

  • @davidguenther8170

    The cone shape is a reaming tool. The hatchet is a shingling hammer/hatchet. The tool box probably belonged to a ship wright. Those disks with the different size holes, are inserts for a router to follow templates.

    Great video, just a note, if you want to remove rust and make sure that you don't remove any iron only iron oxide (rust) use Evaporust, items can be left in there any length of time and only the rust will be removed. If you leave high carbon steels in the evaporust for an extended time you may see a black residue, this is the carbon that is left behind after the surface rust is removed and it can be removed with a little elbow grease.

    That a back saw for cutting miters , I think you well got your money worth , that was a roofing hatchet. Those big needles I believe are sail needles for reparing ship sails . The small planes are called block planes. And the drills are called braces and bits. Those are called ager bits Black smith tongs the long pliers. That adjustable bit is a hole bore.

  • @maxkushner3454

    You found some good planes. However the eBay sales you are showing are rare planes. The Stanley 605 is a Bedrock plane as you can tell from the horizontal wall. They are rare and get the name from how the frog attaches to the bed. Your planes will fetch around $100 bucks a piece. You can date them by the blade and lever cap.
    The #45 will sell with those cutters for around $160, the Miller falls combo plane you comped it to is an extremely rare one.

    • @RustyTheReseller
      @RustyTheReseller  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Max. I was hoping to sell as an entire lot which is why I had the prices so high. But, I actually just sold the 45 and cutters for $400. They didn't even make an offer, they just bought it. So... I have all my investment back and can start to price things more accurately. In the beginning, i like to price high and let people make offers. Now that I have all my money back, i don't need to be in a hurry because everything that sells now is just profit. I know what the proper comps are, but pricing high allows people to make offers and feel as though they got a "deal." Many people have told me I won't make much off of these, but i've already started getting into profit on a single sold item. I'd say that is still a pretty great deal overall, wouldn't you?

    I inherited my Dads workshop. I can only use so many tools right? Lathes, drill press, routers, you name it. I’m sitting here with 8 tool boxes, one 4 foot long. And then, 4 hole made tool boxes kind is like yours that say “4th generation of tools”. Wonder were to start. eBay? And you said not to clean up? I started cleaning and waxing to get some rust off. But I just started. To me they are grossly dirty! LOL I’m excited finding your site.I feel like I’m opening up you box with you. I did take the planer apart because I was using it. I can’t find the screw! Ugh. I dropped it and just can’t find it!

    • @RustyTheReseller
      @RustyTheReseller  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      What an awesome thing To inherit! eBay can work if you want or you can also place Ads for local sales like Facebook marketplace and the like but do your research on EBay first so you have an idea of the value, otherwise people will send you low low offers and you won’t know if it’s a bad offer or not. Planers, old ones, will sell for more if already restored, but the amount of time and work on fixing old tools isn’t worth enough money to warrant the time I would need to spend, but that’s just for me. Good luck with them!

      @ks5099 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'd recommend trying to find out exactly what you've got before you try to sell it. For hand planes, you want to look up something like "Stanley No. 5 type study" to find out what it is - some of these tools they ended up making them for over a hundred years. One from the 1980s is going to be worth a lot less than one from the 1880s. And you've really got to get the models right, too. Like in the video they showed some ebay listing for a $1500 Miller's patent #42 (from the late 1800s, very rare, and considered one of the most desirable planes to collect because it's so beautiful), but they have a #45 - which was produced for *at least* 80 years.
      There's some Facebook groups that help people identify antique tools, too, if you don't even know what the thing is.

  • @davidguenther8170
    @davidguenther8170 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    You can get a complete Stanley #45 plane, complete for less than $300 bucks. It's definitely not a Miller's patent, which obviously goes for a lot more if everything is there.

  • @randygill953
    @randygill953 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    You made a good buy, the 45 and the 2 Sargent's will cover your cost by themselves. A Stanley plane with the decal add to the value. You have to know what you have before doing comps on ebay. There are websites for identifying Stanley and Sargent planes.

    • @RustyTheReseller
      @RustyTheReseller  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I hear you. Thanks for the encouragement. Just sold the 45 for $400, so that covers the entire lot and now everything else will be profit. I was waiting to reduce my high prices to see if the whole lot would sell first. Now that my money is back I will cut the prices down, but I don't need to be in any hurry either..

    You need to do a lot more research before you go putting big money down on old tools. For example, the no. 5 you got is much newer than the one you quoted on ebay. A type one means it was the first iteration of a no. 5. Highly collectable. Yours is about 70 years newer. A good tool when cleaned up and set up properly, but worth about $25. You have great enthusiasm, but know what your buying before you bid that high again.
