Hello everybody, it’s been a while. I just started collecting Hinsdale Tools this year. It’s not much, but a good start.

Had more pieces that came in this week on my Craftsman BE 3/8”drive. I was able to complete 2 sets so far.

These are just my BE traders. I hoping to find people to be able to trade with.

You have a very nice collection of BE sets. Hopefully one day I can find a couple nut drivers like you have. I have only seen one one time in a picture on Facebook.

Yes, I found them on eBay. They were partial sets when I saw them. I just bought them because they were reasonably priced and I took my time finding the rest of stuff to complete the sets. I did the restoration on the cases because I wanted to preserve them after I am gone.

That was definitely a great find. I am not that lucky.

I got my first Craftsman Circle H partial set when I was in Colorado. I was more focused on buying old woodworking Craftsman machines than thinking about hand tools. I wish I didn’t make that mistake sold them. I had the female ratchet along with the plug. Maybe I will get lucky enough and find...

I started thinking about changing my Craftsman Collection April 2024. I figured hand tools were much lighter than wood working machines. I wanted to learn to restore and do woodworking. Just didn’t have the time, money, or patience to restore and do woodworking. I sold my machines and gave away...

I started the process of collecting the 1/2”drive 12PT Craftsman Circle H Set. They were pretty dirty when I got them. Cleaned them up for this thread. Tons of work to do still.

I am looking for Long C Craftsman Circle H Sockets . I am looking for 21/32”, 25/32”. Any help would be appreciated Reasonable prices please. Jayson Williams
