Thrift shopping.

So I’ve been thrift shopping twice now this week and I’ve made some sweet finds both times. The first place we went to was an antique shop and they had some sweet stuff that some engineer’s wife sold there when he died I bet, because they had pocket scales/straightedges that were in totally good condition. So I got one with a sliding pocket clip that doubles as a depth gauge for $2.15- yeah it’s going in the pocket protector. Then today I found a freakin’ slide rule at the Salvation Army for $2. And it’s totally in great condition. I just had to tape up the case a bit.

Have a gander:
Sweet slide rule and pocket straightedge.
