This store has lots of stuff. I get reclaimed building supplies here for my home projects, etc. And they frequently have tools that need a good home. Which I'm happy to provide.
This is more than a tool, this qualifies as a machine. I've seen grinders, table saws, radial arm saws, jigsaws, scrollsaws, etc. Lots of bare motors, just recently got a nice strong motor for forty bucks. Details and pics later. I KICK MYSELF for missing out on a powermatic lathe model 45 for $125. As I was leaving the store, I drove past their back door and it was sitting in the lot waiting to be loaded onto some guy's truck, he'd just bought it. If only I had showed up earlier. The guy that helped me load the jointer said the lathe had been there for a week and a half. Fuck. Anyhow. I'll keep you guys posted.

I have a little wrench that has suffered similar indignities.

I believe the picture was set up as a joke, and no micrometers were harmed in the process.

My heart immediately sank when I saw that.
Hoping it was a set up. If he clamped that down harrrrd, it would need to be re-calibrated, no?

The owner of the micrometer wouldn't need it anymore... doing 20 to life.
