Rustic workbench

This belonged to an old time carpenter right here in Kingston. The story is that he carried this with him to job sites and had his tools in the bottom, and could use the top for sawing, measuring etc. Nice boot jack ends. Measures 33 inches by 16-1/2 and stands 26-1/2 inches tall. Would look fabulous holding crocks, or jugs. SOLD!

Coal shovel

Barry and I were antiquing in Maine over the summer and saw one of these hanging on a barn wall. I fell in love with it, but it was marked $135. The guy said he could do $100 for me. Still too much money, so I left without it. This one is way more affordable! Hopefully I will get to enjoy it for a bit before it sells! SOLD!

Handy little anvil

Every shop needs an anvil! This one weighs just about 12 pounds and is 11-1/2 inches long by 4 inches tall. SOLD!

Bucket full of Mason jars

Six of these are spoken for, but the rest are available, as is the galvanized wash bucket. Wash bucket is SOLD!

Primitive slicer

This is very cool. Never seen one like it before. I am assuming it would be for slicing large vegetables, maybe squash or turnip? Not quite sure, but I like the way it looks! Four square slicer is 5 by 5 inches with metal dividers for slicing. Arm comes down to press wooden square over the slicer. Entire length of piece is 32 inches and it's 7-1/2 inches wide. NOTE TO SELF: when using the goat's truck to photograph on, latch the gate behind you. Had to round up Bob Marley and the goats! A little bit easier because there was no grass to tempt them!

Sturdy little bench

Painted black but nice and chippy! This would be a great bench in mudroom or on your porch. Nice and sturdy, perfect for putting on shoes. This would also make a cute little coffee table. Measures 33-1/2 by 15 and stands 15-1/2 inches high. SOLD!

Love this chicken feeder!

Made by Moe's poultry supplies, great little hanging chicken feeder. Measures 6-1/4 by 5-3/4 inches and stands 10 inches tall. SOLD!

The slaw cutter is missing it's blade, and the pantry measure is missing it's bottom, but I know my customers will come up with something to reuse these in a clever way! Pantry box is 11 inches in diameter and slaw cutter is 17-1/2 inches long. Pantry measure is SOLD!

Wireware!

A pair of glove stretchers, a garden tool? and an adorable little wire basket. Glove stretchers are sold! Basket is Sold!

24 hole muffin tin

When I bought this at the auction a few weeks ago, they said I had to bring back cupcakes or muffins. Oops! I forgot! Measures 20-1/2 by 14. This would look pretty just hanging on the wall with other kitchen items. SOLD!

Fun kitchen items!

Curved grater, an old peeler, wire whisk, strainer, tin molds, pastry slicer, etc. curved grater is sold!

Fabulous wooden sifter

Wonderful old wooden sifter has the fine mesh screening for finer sifting. This is one of the larger ones I have had with a diameter of over 17 inches. SOLD!

Love these!

My husband called them air adjusters or regulators. Whatever they are called, I just love the look of them! Both are rusty metal, larger one has some traces of paint. The larger one is 12 inches in diameter and the smaller is 10 inches. SOLD!

Rustic, but sweet! This cupboard is natural finish and has a Z brace door on front. Wooden latch. Measures 24-3/4 inches wide by 9-1/2 inches deep and stands 32 inches tall. SOLD!

Heavy cast iron windows with wooden frame

These are very heavy. This one has no glass, and measures 18-1/2 inches wide by 36 inches tall. Great architectural look to these. All SOLD!

Large hardware drawers

These are large wooden drawers that held hardware. Some of them have the piece of hardware attached so you would know what was in the drawer! They measure 11 by 9-1/4 by 9 inches tall.

Gun cabinet

This is a beautiful piece of furniture. The bottom is marked crafted by Union Carpenters. It is in two pieces which makes it easy to move. Lighted inside which operates on a switch. Light works! Has the key too. Measures 26 inches wide by 11 inches deep and stands 70-1/2 inches tall. Lined with red felt. SOLD!

Big galvanized tub

Give your dog or kids a bath! Also would be great for parties, full of ice and beverages. Or use in the garden. 24 by 42 inches. SOLD!

L. Griffin one man logging saw

So hard to get good photos of this fantastic primitive tool. The saw is over 8 feet in length and it was next to impossible to fit the whole thing in one shot! Marked L.Griffin, this one man saw has a very cool mechanical application. My husband said whoever invented it was a genius, the way the parts work together. I guess it has to be seen in person to be appreciated! SOLD!
