    Anybody know what this tool is??

    The Rimac FLEXSTONE was marketed as a point file and commutator dresser in the mid-20th Century. I still have a couple.

    Photos Load Slowly With 10MB Bandwidth

    Cast Iron Tool Stand

    Perhaps a set of legs for a smaller lathe, used with a top plate that didn't come with them. The legs have a spot for a through shaft between them that would give extra stiffness.

    The VINTAGE toolboxes of Garage Journal!

    Are those functional latches on the drawers? Are the rivets aluminum with a small dimple in the middle of the head? Nice box! It should have an interesting history.

    It could be something completely different that was repurposed as a center punch. Perhaps an ice pick.

    2025 Garage Sale Thread (14th Annual)

    I hit the Restore in the nearby city yesterday while there for another reason. They have revised the display, and it makes it very hard to look through the sockets. I concentrated on the wrenches, and found these: Fairmount DOE 5/8 x 3/4 Bonney 2612 flare nut 12-pt. "J-X" 3/8 x 1/2 LIFE-TIME...

    Xcelite P-series (miniature) nut drivers are short and have tiny handles. They might work to fill the empty slots.
