Scored a couple of interesting Plombs this weekend

[jwitt]

The first one is my first "round" O Plomb. 1931 DXR12 ratchet.

I also found this 3/4" wrench marked NAF (or P?) 1147-13 USN

I gave 7.00 for the ratchet (2.00 over my self imposed 5.00 Plomb price limit)
and 1.00 for the wrench.

I saw a los angeles Plomb 3/4" ratchet; it was missing the selector lever.... asking price, $40, a good deal? I was wondering if they still had parts for the ratchet head? I didn't buy it but I might see it again! He also wanted $60 for a Craftsman 3/4" ratchet; which I thought was too high.... then again, I'm a cheapskate! :)

LOL, Your right if I average it out I'm way ahead of the game. I seem to be in a target rich enviroment. Lots of Naval Aviation repair facilities in ths area, it's a rare weekend that I don't find something by Plomb. Besides these two tools I also found two sockets and a WF speed handle yesterday.
