Sometimes the handles of tools like the eggbeater drill (the one with the spoked wheel) will be hollow and the end unscrews so you can store some drill bits inside.
Very nice video Brian. Auctions are so interesting. I've seen guys get competitive and pay way more than a tool was worth. Great entertainment that is. Other times a tool in excellent condition can be had for next to nothing. Your lots were exceptional for the price paid!
The auger bits with the knotch in the tapered shank are very nice! The knotch works with a quick connect/release chuck which has a spring loaded catch to engage the knotch when the shank is inserted. Then there is a release you push or squeeze to disengage the catch and the bit will drop out. 😊😊
@brithesaw It will probably work as the square taper shanks fit most of the old brace drills, but it is not the quick connect version. I think I showed one in one of my old videos. If I can find it, I'll send you a link.
Wow - beautiful tools!! All of the wood components are in such wonderful condition! These tools would, without a doubt, cost a premium here in America. ( I have a full cup of coffee while watching ). Cool little boxes to store bits in and that tool role was a great find!
@@MattsGarage1791 Hello Matt I was just lucky on the night of the auction. Most of the items would usually command higher prices. I enjoy my coffee too. Thanks for watching, Brian
Nice haul Brian, especially the saws and planes all with almost excellent timber, beautiful… 👍🏻 Finally fettled my ‘4’ today and very pleased with it, the blade was virtually unused and sharpened up perfectly and easily… 🔪 Thanks again for sharing, cheers, Rog… 🐍
In order for someone to be pleased to find one of our modern tools one hundred years from now, the tool would have to exist! So much of what is made today is disposable, no one keeps it very long. It is not valuable enough to put your name on it, and if you do, it never lasts long enough to be used by more than one person!
Great haul ‼️new American subscriber here. Could you translate the prices to US dollars? The Millers Falls plane is a great score. I consider those of the time era, of the one you have, to be a close or equal to Stanley.
@@jimzeidler3829 Hi Jim, thanks for watching and subscribing £21 is just over $26 dollars. The Millers Falls plane is pretty immaculate. I'll likely hang on to it. Cheers, Brian
You're welcome, Brian @brithesaw . That's a fantastic deal! The Millers Falls is a great plane and in my opinion, 2nd only to Stanley, during their hay day. I have 2 M.F., No.4 size, one wartime production and the other a type 1. Have a few others that are branded Craftsman and Dunlap that were made by M.F. that are decent as well 🤠
Wow! Great auction buys!

@@timeflysintheshop I gave them it a rattle.
The top doesn't unscrew on this one.
Thanks for taking the time to comment.

@@TerryLambert-w4n Thanks Terry
I do enjoy the auction.
You never know what is going to turn up.
Merry Christmas,

@@timeflysintheshop Thanks
In that auction lot there was a Canadian brace.
I'm hoping that pairs up with those auger bits.

Nice haul Brian. The Marples plane and saw are exceptional. I think you will soon need a bigger shed. Ed
@@NEDNBA51 thanks for watching. I'd like a huge shed, maybe one day.
Brian
Thanks for sharing. I'm envious of what you can buy. In rural Australia rarely see much and way dearer if you do. Keep up the good work
@@robjackson3323 Cheers Rob,
Keep searching some treasure will turn up.
All the best,
Brian

@@Venomator. Thanks,
it was one of my better hauls.
Enjoy that number 4.
Great haul! you can't get that quality or quantity of tools here locally without taking out a loan!
Cheers buddy
It was a decent bundle.
More to come! That was not an epic haul, that is a box of treasure created by a wish, granted by a magic lamp genie! Wow! 🎉🎉🎉
Enjoyed the long video. For me, the first prize would have been the back saw.
Having said that, if you decide to part with the Marples plane…
@@troon5488 Morning,
The little Marples plane is in remarkable condition.
The Saw is great it just needs a little bit of timber.

Excellent work, If you are interested in selling the backsaw as is, let me know.
@@pjregan7615 Hello PJ
Cheers buddy.
I'll have a think about it.
