There is an auction on Friday and Saturday, with the metal working
stuff going on Friday. I was curious about the lathe as to what kind
it is. I'm going to have to have a talk with Arturo about his photos.
They leave a bit to be desired. I'm going to try to make the auction
to see what's there if nothing else. Maybe I can pick up another ham
rig for little or nothing, especially if I tell the auctioneer that
you have to be licensed to buy them. :-) (Of course, that's not true
but HE doesn't know that!)

Im trying to download the lathe pictures as I type this. Ill let you
know.

If you can, snag me a half dozen rolls of that Kester solder, (rosin
core only!!)...looks like a thousand pounds of it, or more....damn..I
cant get the pictures to enlarge. Maybe its not solder...

And Im trying to find storage shelves/Bins that would fit inside along
the walls of a Wells Cargo type trailer. Something I can keep wire,
plumbing and conduit connectors etc etc

Heavy duty enough to survive being bounced down the roadway, while
bolted to the sides of the trailer

According to the website, there was supposed to be a link to "hundreds
of photos" on last night. Haven't seen it yet but I'm going to call
them in a bit and find out where it is. I think what you saw is a box
full of vacuum tubes. Apparently the old guy was into vintage
electronics. If there IS any solder I'll try to get it for you. Too
bad you can't make it. Lord knows what'll be in there.

Update! I just talked to Arturo (the auctioneer) and they are, as of
right now, still digging through the old guys stuff and discovering
all sorts of goodies. He said he hadn't had a chance to put up a link
but will add more photos to the website tonight. Boy, would I like to
have his job. I love to dig through old stuff like that. He said
that there is tons of old photo stuff too, dating back to early
thirties, or maybe before, and up.

For anyone running Firefox for their browser one add-on that I REALLY
like is called Image zoom. It allows you to select a web site image,
right click and zoom it to whatever size you wish.

Boy, do I understand THAT! Thank goodness the gas prices have come
down. At least now I can put some of that toward the OTHER credit
bills. Damned credit cards anyway. I'm going even though I don't have
much money to spare. I just like to look at the old stuff that
someone has accumulated over the years.

I have image zoom installed & I agree that it's great. However, if the
image is 167px × 129px (5 KB), there just isn't enough resolution to
make zooming worthwhile.

I think that the first of the two images may be boxed audio
transformers and other transformers. The blue boxes with the red
circles look like the UTC (Universal Transformer Company) logo, so I
suspect that tha whole zone may be transformers of various brands. The
second zone (second from the end, too) looks more like the logos on
various brands of vacuum tube boxes -- and the odds are that none of
them would work in an old tube-based Monarch 10EE. :-(

The last image is clearly unboxed tubes.

Oops -- make that the last image before the red Mercedes. I had
not scrolled down far enough. :-)

Terrible images though -- way too much jpeg processing.

Good Luck,
DoN.
