Thank you once again, Professor! As a relative newcomer to the site, it is always interesting to get a peek through the “way back” machine… which is an overly-wordy way of saying thank you for the links! They definitely provide interesting reading. V/r, John

I had never laid eyes on an "SR" marked tool until we landed in the PNW... seems I run into them semi-regularly now 'though always sockets. That SR ratchet looks quite similar to the WF offering from Plomb based on handle and faceplate shape/orientation/etc. It's definitely an interesting one...

Micarta?

Well, now. That SR rat sure has some familiar lines...

I have to admit that LS had me chuckling as I read ... John

Lugs and LesserSon, I quite frankly have no idea about another person's motivations, missions, or marriages. Having enjoyed one of my own (a marriage, that is) for a couple decades, I can truthfully declare that the mind of my Wife is hers and hers alone. In the case (fortuitous double meaning)...

A late entry from Memorial Day weekend... I've been trying to track down a 4795 Case since pulling an almost-complete set of 1/4 drive sockets out of a mixed box several months and multiple states back. Whilst sorting through a huge and rusty pile of sockets at the annual St. Regis Fleamarket...

I'm not sure how this fell through the cracks but here's a bit of a Plvmb-heavy catch-up from Memorial Day weekend. I hit the annual St. Regis Fleamarket after a quick stop at a tool reseller in Missoula and came away with the following: Plvmb 5449 1/2 Ratchet (Pebble) (needs one spring...

Thank you, Sir!

Pulled this case (5295?) yesterday and a couple of tools along with it. Anyone looking for any of these, let me know... I'm trying to avoid adding another tool brand to the obsession! Best regards, John

Here's one I can't quite figure... This came out of the bottom of the Waterloo box and, while neatly stored on the pin as shown, was covered in a grease and dirt concrete that took considerable convincing to depart its previous location. Thoughts?
