Default Amazing what folks throw away

One of the periodic irritant$ of building houses is that folks, from
neighbors to landscape crews, use your dumpster/construction trash boxes as
their personal dump ... but sometimes it pays off:

Last evening someone chunked, into one of my 4 x 8 OSB trash bins, a
Craftsman, 1/3 HP, 3400 rpm, dual wheel bench grinder, in _perfect working
order_ and with two new grinding wheels. Said tool from the era when
Craftsman tools were worth the price, .

It also pays, sometimes in more ways than you anticipate, to get yerass out
of bed and be the first one checking out the sites each morning ....

Some T9, a little WD40, and that sucker was screwed to my workbench by
lunch.
