***FREIGHT WILL BE COMBINED ON MULTIPLE BAR TOOL PURCHASES IF SHIPPED TOGETHER **** Just outside of Philadelphia there used be a Major WW II aircraft factory owned by Brewster Aircraft. Aside from having their one series of modestly successful aircraft including the Bermuda and Buckaneer, they had sub contracts from Vought and BF Goodyear to fab and sub assemble their Corsair aircraft. When the Navy purchased the factory as a test facility in the late 40's it became the Johnsville Naval Air Test Center, which has since closed. But when Brewster sold the plant it also sold most all of the production equipment since the Navy didn't want it. When I started my binge of building aluminum homebuilts I was lucky enough to stumble onto a ton of the old equiipment through the esate of the Brewster purchasing agent - Mr. Sheppard. Among 3 tons of these pneumatic tools and associated parts tooling - I purchased bucking bars in 5 gallon pail quanities. Needless to say I have a tremendous assortment of profesioal / mass production aircraft fabrication tools and parts, includng at last count over 560 refurbished and polished, the most diverse assortment available anywhere in the world, with every shape, weight, and size to fit ever tight space you have ever encountered. With these tools I have build a Bede 5 Jet, Brokaw Bullet and a Swearingen SX-300. Well I have gone out of the building business and spend my time now flying. So I am liquidating many of my tools.
