I'm home.

On the drive home through Chatham, I called him. I told him new ones were 180. He quickly agreed to 100. They are in reasonably good shape. Yes, as I had guessed from the photo, there is some surface rust. But I can prolly polish it out. Functionally, they are both in great shape.

I even tapped a few holes when I got home. Never loosened off once. Feel great in my hands too - even the small one.

Quite happy!

Thanks @Perry ! You made my day!

Now I need a C and a D. If they make a teeny tiny AAA, that would awesome too. Clear priority is D though.

Nice. I'm glad it worked out for you. :) I like spending other peoples money.

When I seen the Calgary number I thought there might be some hope for me. Time is on my side. something always comes along. :)

Your photo makes them look pretty good. Just like new.

You are lucky. At 77, time is not my friend anymore....... LOL!

I confess I did a bit of polishing to see how bad the rust was.

I also see I left a fingerprint on the small one. Goes to show how tiny it is. Downright cute little tool!
