I would be interested in hearing what items fellow home shop owners
find in thrift stores and dollar stores that end up being useful in the
home shop environment.

Thanks in advance.

Not much at the dollar store maybe some use once throw away hand tools.

Thrift store is another story. I got two floor standing 3/4hp, 5/8" chuck
drill presses, Dremel Advantage (the one with the large motor), 24" aluminum
pipe wrench (lighter than my 24" Rigid), a combination wrench set
(beautifully highly polished black nickel plating more for show than work, I
don't need another wrench set but tools are hard to refuse), various other
Chinese and name brand hand tools.

If thrift shop includes Harbor Freight, see my post below.
