Last week's thrift store finds-

[YY1]

100w Weller brand soldering iron $5.

Where was this when I was looking to buy a new one?

 

[YY1]

70W (?!) 5" Onkyo bookshelf speakers.

5 Ohm?

Fiber woofer cone with butyl surround and soft dome tweeter.

Fairly well respected.

Supposedly has freq response of 60-34K Hz.

60 Hz from a 5" is crazy.

$4 for the pair.

They are heavy.

You never know what's gonna be out there.

Right before the fire(s) I bought this marble/brass mantle clock with candle holders & key for $20.
I gave the lady running the place $80-100 anyway I think...
The clock weighs about 45lbs & candle holders are about 10. A very stout set.

I bet that pic doesn't do them justice.
Still beautiful!

FYI, that's a French clock, although the dial makes it look Korean. It would look much better with a painted porcelain dial. That key is a shopkeepers key that has different sizes for different size winders, as if you didn't already know that. Still a nice piece.

I did know about the key, thanks. Haven't done much research on the clock yet. Opened it up & only see this mark:

No serial number or other marks I could easily see. My wife liked it so I purchased it.

I don't recognize the mark, there could be others on the front of the movement? As long as it works, that's what's important!
