Found the Alfred Lilly Auger several years ago. Had no use for it, but it was within budget and cool. Misused it once in a fit of desperate need as a backyard post hole digger. That moment has extended to years of regular augering because it works quite well. Pretty much the same thing...

Kraeuter 5601-5 Diagonal Cutting Plier (Needle Point)

Harrold is satisfied.

Nah. Said it cuz I know how I lurked for a long time and how it felt to finally say something and now I know how to distinguish Saw Sets from . . . other things. You and a buncha people make it all informative and worth spending time here. The Sticky is a frequent starting point as is the...

Some Threads draw people out who might have been Lurking when they see that they "know enough about that pair of pliers over there that belonged to my grand uncle" to contribute to a very general conversation. The "Welcomes" to those new people along with encouragement and observations from so...

Appreciate your effort and the input of others to make Pliers almost important . . . as the Thread approaches its 2 year anniversary. If it was a marriage, of which I have had way too many, it'd be Cotton.

Huh! Would Yates Clamps help with that? Hold all those damn snippets? Appreciate the Google Books Search information with or without Clamp usage.

If they'd been related to Saw Sets you'd've learned even less.

Clever? Compromises my searches, I guess.

Bought 6 odd clamps on Friday for $1.00 each because “Why not?”, they were cheap and they called to both of us that they had to be useful . . . somehow. Learned what they were and that eliminated “Whatzit” but rather than clutter the Forum with another Thread I figured there might be an...

Upside-down nut? Camera operator does OK as one, but without knurls. Think there's a safety issue?

That's a fine answer!

A SigO find, of course. Center Finder with no name that we can find.

SigO found this Whitman & Barnes No. 0 “Bull Dog” Wrench the same time she found the Perfect Handle Wrench so it misplaced itself because it was being ignored, probably. Williams, after acquiring W & B's Wrench Operation, referred to it as a Pocket Size.
