Thanks for the info. I’ll try that.

I got a 3/8” Snap On F71G ratchet at an auction a long time ago and it’s been a great ratchet. However I seem to have broken it taking off a stubborn bolt. I took the ratchet apart and a couple of the teeth on the drive are broken (the part that has the 3/8” connector). I’m just a backyard...

I think you got it. It looks to be from an 8" Van Dorn.

That would be my guess.

I got this at an estate sale for $.50. Do any of you guys know what it is? It has a flat head on the end. No markings that I can see.

garage sale haul Got all this today at one garage sale. They had had an estate sale a couple weeks ago but not everything had sold (no surprise seeing the price tags the company had put on them). The tall stack is Akro-Mils. The two short red stacks are Ohmite "little devils" full of...
