We were plagued with hundreds where I worked and used this combo: Road flare in their dens, esp in spring before the little ones pop out. Live trap with bait after the grass dried out and we couldn't use flares. They will die in the trap within an hour or so in the sun. Cats/dogs will keep them...

Im echoing your caution to think ahead of the potential of the tool we are using. I have had a couple of recent strikes and some close calls with a 4 1/2" handheld grinder. Using a variety of wheels. It's a pain to suit up for a small job but the consequences are worth it. Your suggestion of a...

Did not know there was(is) a Wright Tool Co until I picked this speeder up today. I'm not able to date it but it is consistent with the specimen on alloy artifacts site. Model MN-15, 3/8" drive, plain steel. It will fill the void in my Craftsman collection until I can find a C-Series speeder.

Cool, send us some pictures when you're done!

P.S. Did I hear a 440 in a Coronet? That gonna be a wild ride.

Another thought if you don't have access to a punch is to use 3/16 welding rod. Easy to hold in place and cut off after the weld. The copper backer works well, I have used pieces of copper bus bars from electrical panels (free). The sheet metal disk are problematic to hold in place esp way up...

Nice find

1/4" is pretty small. Welding them in is the way to go. Either fill completely with rod or tig /mig in little plugs. As it is the weld is harder than the body steel and you must grind carefully. I've recently started using a 2" cutting disk in an air grinder. It is effective to work small...

Echoing the tips given: 5/8 or rated equivelant for added fire rating, but 1/2 shouldn't sag on 16oc. Use a lift. Much easier unless you have hung allot of Rock. Tees sound easy and cheap but in the long run a lift will save you allot of time and get better job. Keep your joints tight. Make...

I've had success with protecting the wire in pvc or emt conduit. Use inexpensive multi conductor wire. Connections boxed and sealed if needed i.e. boat trailer. High corrosion environment you can use nolox or similar on the grounds.

If it has a weld seam maybe a long shaft burr grinder bit from both ends and or a small sanding drum on an extension.

Good looking old tool. Would be fun to restore.

Have the same problem......lots of stuff that follows me home too.l

Nice piece, imagine the work that was done on that old fella over the years!

Posting for another car guy. What is it? Here is what he knows: Found in old garage Fixed wheels (do not steer) Ramp on end lowers Hole in opposite end Guesses so far are: used to haul something or wheel dolly for old car.

Here is a full explanation of he tool: http://www.collectingsnapon.com/index.php?page=socket_sets/B1-4inchdrive/carbtools Also changed the post title since I know now that it isn't a bolt starting tool......

On the topic of other Craftsman wrenches, does anyone know if Craftsman made an offset wrench like his one? 1/2 drive 11/16 12pt. It among other uses enables head bolt torquing with out removing the distributor on a Model A.

Bet that made his wagon sag when he loaded it.....I usu find the heavy stuff at the beginning of the meets. Nice find.

Niig, would like to hear your review of the impact driver after you have had a chance to use it for a while.
