* Out here in Central Texas we have lots of pawn shops. *I hit them
often for DVD's mostly, but I always look at thetoolsand cameras. *I
usually find some good deals on stuff that has been marked down
because it's sat there too long, or it doesn't work.

* Recently picked up a Cat V cable tester for $10 with a dead battery,
a Sperry circuit tester for $1 (said it was not working, once I
downloaded the manual, I figured out how to use it.), and just
recently a Shimpo digital tachometer for $10. *Marked down from the
original price of $145. Just needed the battery terminals cleaned.

* A fewhandtools, a variable speed Craftsman grinding wheel ($20).
One pawn shop I used to go to, which was sold recently, used to put
all theirhandtoolsin a big bin, and I can't recall how many KlienhandtoolsI got for 50 cents each.
