Awesome 👍 😎. Thank You! What do you think about the "A1" code on the jaw?

Hello fellow tool enthusiasts! I picked a 14" at the habit for humanity store and I was trying to figure out the approximate year based on the info in this thread, but the jaw code is only "A1" and says patent pending. Mr. Lugnutz, you have been at this a long time, shouldn't you have been...

Hey. I read the Rigid dating info. Super helpful! Thanks! I picked up a nice example that falls into the 1937 to 1948 range and the code on the jaw ends with a "7". Is there any way to tell if it would be a 1937 or a 1947 wrench? Just curios if I am missing something. :)

Wow! That is the biggest Bevel gage I have ever seen! I am gonna have to keep an eye out for one of them! I found this thread while researching what appears to be a rare, old Stanley bevel gauge.

Yes it is tapered. I know there are taper mount drill chucks, but I also wonder if there are or were other taper mounted tools.

Thanks!

What an amazing find AND restoration!

Greetings all! I attended an antique engine show on Saturday and I picked up a nice little haul of old tools. Among them was this Thor Independent Pneumatic Tool Co. tool for $5. It appears to be a rotary tool with a tapered bit onto which some sort of chuck or other tool would be connected...

What is the brand that you get which you consider the best?

Here are images of the papers that came with it. I still need to take some good pics of the tool.

Hey All. I have what I think is an unusual multi-tool to show you. Check out my Happy Birthday Tool Haul video. If you want to skip to the multi-tool, it starts at the 2:25 time. After the tool haul is a walk around of a TRULY AMAZING tool store in Amish country called Colonial Homestead...

Hey there fans of PROfessional TOols (PROTO). Check out my video of the repair of a vintage Proto ratchet (skip to the 15min mark if you want to skip the tool haul part of the video) and then the video from Big Vic where he shows what he did with the whole tool set. Make sure you watch the...

Well that post was not used the way I thought it would be. :) I posted that video as a convenient way for the Bonney fans to get to Resto Rob's channel where they can view many Bonney tool videos about different Bonney tools. Until I saw the Bonney vise video, I had no idea Bonney made...

A coworker brought me a vintage hammer drill today to put on my YouTube channel as a quest tool. It is marketed as the lightest tool of its kind, but weighs in at 17.5 lbs! There is a flyer as from a 3-ring binder with it that includes info about the drills and such. There is an address in...

Hey Bonney tool fans! The YouTube channel for Resto Rob has a lot of videos about Bonney Tools because he collects them. Check out his channel. Here is a link to a video about a Bonney Vise!
