I suck and I know it!!!!!

[wrenchr]

I will get some pics of an old snap on chest I picked up today!! It is from the 30's I'm sure.:beer: Oh and there are some bluepoint wrenches and snap on tools in there, the same vintage!!!

[Danglerb]

I agree with you. ;)

BTW which way are you paddling faster?

The box is in the truck and I have to move three cars to get it in front of the garage!! In a little while I'll have pics.

[chad s]

Cant wait to see the pics!

[Fedwrench]

Tease!! You could have just waited to post until you could have taken the pictures but no, you had to set the stage by first posting that you picked up a box of old Snap on tools. Way to cast that line and see who's biting,:beer:

[CAT_serviceman927]

Come on and get out in the garage. We need pictures. Not like it's cold out.:spit:

[jay50]

Even though you have not posted any pics, you still are deserving of the expected comment ..."you suck"...LOL

[kartracer55]

I agree with you. ;)

Haha well judging by his location, im guessing AWAY from it! :lol_hitti

Dibs on the old Blue Point wrenches that no one but me seems to like!

They have some grind marks on them and there are some old craftsman and indestro wrenches as well.

[JeepsAreBuilt]

I dont see how "you suck" awards can be awarded without pics. :confused:

Oh yea, like a few grind marks ever slowed me down! :lol_hitti:lol_hitti:lol_hitti

Probably because Wrenchr gets so many deals that when he says its a good deal most of us know it probably deserves major suckage.If he thinks its a good deal the rest of us bow down to his deal finding ability.

[paramudduck]

I am still waiting fr the pics. How ever I will say you suck for not posting them yet.

[Merkava_4]

This thread still doesn't have any pictures? What the flying frick? :D

[wrenchr]

The drawer with the B/P wrenches and snapon sockets I have to go back outside and snap that pic because my memory card filled up!!! I'm having some issues today!!

[gotmud13613]

That is one sweet box :thumbup:

Contents are pretty dang neat too :beer:

[snapmom]

This covers 20s thru 40s. The four pt wrench is very hard to find, been looking for one myself. The old socket is a wingnut socket from the 20s.

[zuspiel]

Now you officially suck!!! Really nice box. Will you clean it up?
If so, I'd love to see it again when it's restored.

[Merkava_4]

What size is the double offset in the picture above, the wrench at the top? It looks like a 5/8" X 3/4"

[64merc]

Very cool indeed!! Why do a lot of vintage tools have those little indentations ground into them?

Its one of the old ways of tool owner identification, before small hand engravers hit the market. File marks, center punch marks, center punch letters are quite common on earlier tools.

[paramudduck]

ID marks so you would know your tools.

Chad you answered while I was typing.

Cleaning up as in degreasing and waxing it!!! The bottom drawer was opening very hard, but I fixed it:beer:

Nice box and tools. Is the adjustable wrench a 4"? What is its brand?

[wrenchr]

Utica, it was bent but I bent it back.

[nordstar]

I have a small army of 4" wrenches, no Utica though. They are very collectible and some can fetch a pretty penny or two. I will have to post mine some time soon.

I like the cap grenade on the right side of the drawer.
Remember the old paper rolls of caps for your cap gun? You'd tear off one and put it in the head of this little bomb, then lob it near whoever you were playing army with, it'd hit the ground nose-first, and go bang.

Nice box of tools, too. I wonder if the original owner ever regretted putting the rounded saw teeth on the side of his wrenches to mark them? Seems like they'd dig into his palm or fingers for stubborn fasteners. Putting them on the top surfaces of the wrenches would have been better.

Yeah, that makes sense. I just wasn't sure, thanks.
