    Diamalloy Tools

    I have a couple "Auto Wrenches" as well, but mine are part of the beginnings of my Vlchek tool collection. I have gotten interested in those because of their local (Cleveland) heritage. Binderminder, if you're looking for a 15" adjustable I have seen a few on eBay recently. That's not...

    Ingersoll Rand t30 model 242-5n

    Just to close the loop on this, the local IR Service company had someone contact me today and they were able to send over the parts diagram for the compressor. Nice to work with a company that still supports their nearly 40 year old equipment. Sent from my SM-G960U using The Garage Journal...

    Diamalloy Tools

    The big boy 18" makes these others look like toys. I'm sure glad to have it here and I'm hopeful it will be passed down to my kids some day when I no longer need it. Sent from my SM-G960U using The Garage Journal mobile app

    Diamalloy Tools

    My addiction to these tools is growing. I have the 8, 10, 12 and 18" adjustable wrenhces now too... I never knew I needed an 18" adjustable wrench until I had one. It's surprising how many excuses I've found to reach for the "big boy".

    Ingersoll Rand t30 model 242-5n

    Thanks. The IR website is pretty much useless in finding documentation for these old units. I did submit a request through their "contact us" form. I guess we will see if they can help me out. Or we will see who helps me out faster (IR or GJB Forum)!

    Ingersoll Rand t30 model 242-5n

    I'd love some direction with a T-30 with the 242-5d that I just picked up. Something fishy going on with the check valve and unloader and I'm hoping the manual will point me in the right direction. Any help would be appreciated.

    Diamalloy Tools

    I've recently been bitten by the Diamalloy Love Bug after researching a small pair of cutters that I had, then thought I lost, and then was thrilled to locate again. Yep. Diamalloy. After realizing what they were, I went through the toolbox that they were in (inherited from my Papaw in TN) and...

    Some new tools

    There are few things more precious to inherit than the tools of someone you cared about and who used them well. I have been blessed to have inherited a few nice ones from family as well. Sorry for your loss.
