    What is it? Drill bit? Reamer?

    Thanks for the info. No taper. 5/8" with the 1st inch stepped down to 1/2". The drive end isn't tapered either. No holes. The only markings are a number. Best as I can tell it is 2050-11822603. Alloy? Angle? Google didn't recognize it.

    What is it? Drill bit? Reamer?

    Dril bit? Reamer? Combo bit/reamer? Are those coolant channels? Chip path? Thanks. EDIT: Here's a direct link if the picture isn't showing up for you. https://imgur.com/QZOAxUP

    Bell system

    Hi, found these among some tools I recently adopted. The box is approximately 13x10x6. The previous owner must've been a comm tech or worked in a central office.

    Old Yates Combo Table Saw-Resto Mod

    I'm late to the party but I'm definitely enjoying your thread. I have one of these in my garage, patiently awaiting my attention. Someday.

    Plomb tool picture thread - show your stuff!

    Hi, I'm mostly a lurker, but recently picked up some old tools and have been researching them. I believe mine is 9/32 but has similar construction with the screw holding the front/back plates together. And yours is the first pic I've seen that also has the beefier selector lever. The ratchet...

    Buried antique cars in my yard!!!

    According to my neighbor, their old Henry J is buried in either her back yard or mine. I'd love to find it and dig it up, but I doubt it could be salvaged.

    How many aircraft/A&P's here ?

    ZRX61, I have a tie pin with that North American logo on it (with what I think is a tiny diamond in the center). My dad was a lead man there for 17 years. I have my A&P. Never have used it as a paid professional. Just some side work with a IA friend on his family's planes.

    My experience was top notch. Good communication, shipped right away, and wrenches were as described.

    New lights from menards

    Is that $19.99 before the rebate? I'm finding these for $19.98 (on sale from $29.97), but no mention of a rebate. Metalux 48" Fluorescent Shoplight with Chrome Reflector Model Number: SLNR232RCHR | Menards® SKU: 3481424 Thanks. Either way, I think my basement will soon be brighter.

    Want to help me identify my dad's (old to me) tools?

    If they work, they'll be useful at some point. One example, say you're countersinking holes...it's nice to have one drill set up with your countersink bit and the other drill with your through bit. Unless you're really tight on space, I'd keep anything that worked. If you use any of it...

    What are these wrenches used for?

    They're a little like cylinder base nut wrenches you'd see working on airplanes. Do they have part numbers? Just a guess, but the shape and size makes me think of flanged pipe connections.
