My small collection of Wizards that I've had forever.

Nice job on the the carpenter's hatchet. I love seeing what I refer to as "ground-found" tools. Tools that were found on or in the ground of which I have a few.

Would like to find a 4" to 6" King **** spanner wrench on the cheap. Does not need to be all cleaned up.

I have a set of the above pliers and I really dislike the big rubber grips. If possible I would like to remove the grips and just rubber dip the handles. Any ideas on how to remove the grips?

The only Kobalt tools I have are a tire fill/pressure gauge (2nd one) which doesn't measure accurately and a set of pliers with big think rubber grips which I hate. I'll take Craftsman tools any day. Just about all my Craftsman tools are 70's-80's vintage and I doubt I'll need to replace any of...

My first Craftsman crank drill. Sometimes I get too anxious and tear down without any before pics. This one was scuzzy.

Why don't I have permission to post in the classified section???

When I worked at Sikorsky Aircraft in CT I used to see some of those P&W decals around the plant. All Sikorsky helicopters were built and tested with Pratt & Whitney engines because both companies were under the same United Technologies umbrella. Mechanics and engineers were always going back...

From L to R: Home made crows foot wrench to tighten a footpeg nut in a tight spot. Modified socket for adjusting driving lamps on my Harley Heritage Classic. Home made drag link socket for removing oil screen caps on Harley Shovelhead and Evo cone motors.

Beautiful project. If it were mine I'd have to add just a wee bit of pinstriping.

I sure did. Was wondering what happened to that post. :confused:

I picked this up at a pawn shop for $3. Though is says "Fleet" research tells me that Proto and Penens could be involved somehow. Anyway, it cleaned up nicely and the innards are smooth with no sign of wear or slop in the movement. It's a heavy ratchet and seems quite sturdy.

Good fix. I love fabrications for function. Only thing I'd do is shorten up the tubes and make some nicer caps. Great job.

Is this something new? I live in Florida and all my doors open in. House, porch and garage.

My two. Yeah I know, not very exciting but I have two more walls so I'll know what time it is no matter which way I'm facing. I'll probably build the next two.

Good job. What is the brand and color name and number of the paint you used?

My Utica Steel 6" adjustable wrench. The jaws are the square opening rather than the hex. Jaws are not sloppy and the movement is smooth. Info I've found is a bit confusing as to whether the Alloy Steel model 91's came before or after the drop forged ones. Anybody know?

Thanks for the info. Much appreciated!

Manufactured sometime between 1953 and 1958.

A picture might help if you can post one.
