Congratulations Robert, Thanks for sharing! What a find!:beer: Are you planning on contacting Snap-On? Do you think you would ever sell it? Is there a museum nearby that you would be willing to display it in? Have a great day and thanks again. Don

Thanks guys for the Kudos!:beer: I forgot to add the $1.35 for the handle screws. So everything is original except the drawer trim and the handle screws. The smaller boxes are fairly quick fun projects that a person can get a rewarding feeling from without too much debt. Now it's good for the...

Hi evintho,Rickster,everyone, I had forgotten to post the updated version of this box. I finished the project in early December. It was pretty rough, front cover door was racked, cracks and broken welds and dents,dents dents. Anyway we got'er done. No body filler, 2 cans of Snappy's $26 paint...

We have 6 powered vents and 3 fixed lights, very happy. Installed in '98. One instance of operator malfunction, replaced with no grief and no cost except labor. I would recommend the powered vent over manual. You'll find reasons to have it open. Although cranking is easy and fast, pushing a...

I don't know where you can get a carb, but you may be able to fix your carb. I have found that fuel deposits on honda machines cause all kinds of problems. Carefully disassemble the carb and remove the jets if possible. Use a magnifying glass and examine the inside of the jets and passages for...

Great service, great communication, fair pricing. If you are needing calibration of your torque wrench or any other precision instrument, contact these people, they will do a great job for you. They really helped me.:beer: Micro Precision Calibration Inc. 21331 Adamson Dr. Grass Valley, Ca...

Got the box home. It is a 1977 KRA 53B. Well used but very serviceable. Some broken spot welds, but all the slides are good. And..... there are tools! 2ea Fairmount 3/4 x 7/8 OE, 1ea Upland Forge 15/16 combo, 1ea Vlcheck 15/16 OE, 1ea Duro-Chrome 15/16 x 1 OE, 1ea Vitalloy 1/2 OE w/welded...

I have a black and chrome sticker that reads: Snap-On Professional Technician Build it Right Build it Tight I didn't see your website listed on your old truck, that should be on your new truck in addition to your phone number. Borrowing from an old Caterpillar slogan...

Thanks evintho, I got the box. Well, I haven't got it yet. I asked some friends in Tracy to get it for me and they did. I should have it by Wed. They said it looks great! And....., there is a key and the lock works! Will need some clean up but that's ok. I'll let you know more next week...

I think the KRL boxes are powder coated, so the finish is pretty tough. Having said that, don't push the abuse too far. Don't use brake clean or strong acidic or alkaline cleaners. After all, this is a painted surface, use products for painted surfaces. To remove heavy oil/grease, use a...

Thanks krusty, that's confirmation enough for me. Looks like the TK-30 must have evolved a little later as SO's own product. Mystery of the long awaited question is solved!

On 5-11-08 jim m was asking about a TK-30 but didn't provide any pics so krusty and chad s were unable to help although they responded. I also have a TK-30 and didn't/not sure know what it's for until recently. I found a fellow who insists it is used for adjusting and aligning ignition points in...

Thanks Chad S & Billymade, appreciate your input. I really don't know how it was used, maybe you or someone else can help with that. Possibly because of the torque tube driveshaft design the u-joints would fall out when the shaft was removed or to hold the u-joint in when installing the shaft...

U joint tool... Can you explain how it would work? Thanks, Don

Man, that was QUICK! I don't even want to know where it goes to extract money, especially in 1931!

I have this 1931 S-9580 Snap-On Tool that I hoped someone on the board would help identify? Thanks, Don

Thanks V8 Garage! We had a lot of fun restoring the machines. The machine work 90 years ago was outstanding, casting work is a lot better later on. Have a great day!

What a fascinating site! I've been looking for a little while. The group here makes one want to be part of it, neat. The wealth of infomation is incredible, thanks to all of you! I found this site when looking for a Snap-On tool, lucky me! We restore antique trucks and tractors. Although we sold...
