A few of my old snap on bits. Nothing too special , sockets from ‘27-29, including a 5/8 Drive 15/16. A 20” long 1/2 extension, no date markings , and a old round head flex ratchet.

That boy scout hatchet is cool! dare i ask how much they wanted for it ???

I didn't think of that, that makes sense. Half of a speeder. an L shape hex, and then Hex drive sockets , which were somewhat common back in the day. Interesting.

Odd shape looking obstruction socket thing. It has a rotating handle like a speed handle , the socket size is 1/2” No manufacturer , just the words ‘Pat. Applied for made in USA

Found this old thread , maybe Woody will respond. Although I’m a ‘youngster’ (mid 40’s) , I grew up in New Haven and always enjoy seeing things made here. I also know the area where the factory was. Here is my Kilborn Bishop wrenches. I imagine the open end wrench with the squared off...

There is a tiny tiny hole (almost like a jet ) near the valve. The holes on the short piece of pipe i was thinking were for air mixture. Just a thought

Picked this interesting gem up at an estate sale recently, Dad and I think it could be a soldering gun that uses calcium carbide. (to make acetylene). The white powderey residue, the fact it had a "cloth" inside make us think this. Obviously probably kind of dangerous to use. haha...

picked up a old and little bit crusty level , I thought it looked cool, I didn't even know it said Brown and Sharpe until I cleaned it off. It works and rotates, still needs more cleaning. Anybody have an idea of the age ?

Although not that old (early '70's) I picked up this ratchet which I thought was interesting. I never saw a modern Craftsman ratchet with all this patent info on the handle. Usually all the patent # stuff was on really old tools. Was this the 1st model of this type of ratchet ?

I want to find one of these ! Just to say I have a have tool made of beryllium .

estate sale stuff. saw these grinders, 2 separate places. I dint buy them because I don't have the room, but snapped a couple pics. I don't know the vintage , perhaps you guys could shed some light .

I got a bag of these counter sinks and stuff at a tag sale the other day for a couple dollars. light surface rust, What would you do? I have the ability to do electrolysis, vinegar, acetone and ****** fluid, phosphoric acid, wire brush on a grinder, etc ??? Thanks !

Scored ? This at a garage sale last weekend. Old Champion 3" jaw vise , appears to even have a "hardy hole" in the anvil. But sure if that's original or not. Anyone else got one ? Any other info ?

Ooops

Local garage sale today, old craftsman lunchbox. I passed on it because of the broken latch , but it was pretty straight

Scored some old tools at a couple garage sales this weekend, One was this old Proto pliers. They say Proto Los Angeles, MFD USA. and they have this neat design on the handle. No Model No. from what i can see

Don't think i ever shared these. My garage sale jackstands. I love the construction, with the center "I" beam, and cast bottom plate. I have no idea a maker or age. anyone ?

thanks for the responses, Ill probably sell it, maybe ill look for the correct ratchet first.

thanks for the responses, Tried them the other day with some O/A welding. definitely a lot lighter than the full face or the flip up goggles. I am still learning O/A welding, now that winter is here, I should have more time to practice . These came with a shade 4 and a shade 6 ...

nice! cool find. 1927 mark for sure
