My finds at the surplus store day!
I spent hours moving boxes & items in the collapsing building looking for the Hydra cooker folding stands but unfortunately didn’t find any (yet). I’m also looking for the cooking pot & lid for the Coleman 500 stove that it was also stored in but didn’t find that either (yet). I won’t give up but I did come across some other treasures that I was happy to find, bring home, sandblast, prime & paint and add to my collection.
The pictures will speak for themselves. My family always look at me like I’m looney when I come home with all this rusty mouldy stuff but my smile says I had fun. A good day to also catch up with Rob & Laun. I found some nice armbands. The White over blue armband I’m assuming is a signals armband? Not sure what it’s supposed to mean but somebody was smart enough to put an arrow on the back of it to show which way it’s supposed to be worn. My most exciting find was the cable spool reels for my reel backpack I was looking for;
