does anyone happen to need a pair of Proto 246 slip-joint pliers?

Ok. here is something I found a little while ago in my research.

try finding the tools from the old world thread. Someone from Germany might be able to tell you who made them.

I have a whole set of these wrenches. I don't know who made them, I bought them at a thrift store near an old ford plant that closed down.

This is a blowtorch that was made by the P. Wall Mfg Co. in Pittsburgh, PA.

Cool! Next, we will try to Identify my old wrench. I have this old monkey wrench that has no markings.

Does anyone here happen to have a model 3021 Plomb wrench set?

It was made entirely in Germany... it is the only german "Tool" I have.

Does this count?

I have some old craftsman stuff, two 3/8 drive ratchets from the 70's. For new tools, I recommend Dowell tools. look on Amazon.
