Don't know how else to describe this screwdriver type "pick" or whatever it may be. Is anybody familiar with this Plomb tool? Could this possibly be a regular flat head screwdriver that was ground down for some custom purpose? Please share your thoughts. :headscarf

Paid $50.00. I thought that was a good deal, not a "you ****" deal but still a good deal. The box seemed like a sturdy, made in the USA, quality box. It did include the key as well......Key says "Chicago Lock" if that is helpful with identification. I gave the outside some Turtle Wax...

You're right, better chance of an ID at that thread....Thanks. I can't find any stampings at all on this box.

Who is the maker of this box? Any ideas? Guesses? I'm told it's not H.L. Allen...... Thanks

Recently purchased this vintage H. L. Allen top chest. Never heard of this brand, at first I thought it looked more like a Waterloo or Cornwell but does anybody have info on the H.L. Allen line of toolboxes? Any photos to share? There are two holes in the front of the box, above the lock and...

sz0k30 Allow me to be the first to offer you the prestigious, "You ****" for your two vises for $40.00 Congrats! KZ

Joe, Wow! That's beyond vintage...that's an antique. Pat. date is 1865 but any idea when it was manufactured? Probably next to impossible unless there is a date stamp somewhere. Craigslist find? estate sale? burglary find? Tell us how you found it. And for you too......the more poetic...

Bugs, Yes a very nice haul it is. Well I guess you are in the vise business now, huh. Looks like several Wilton vises......I'd say the 1760 is a 6 in. jaw Wilton Tradesman.....I just picked up a 1750 yesterday. I'd say the top three on the right are all Wilton's Tell us more about how they...

Natural, I'm very happy that your friend would allow you to have the vise. That was very nice of him. You two must be good friends going back for a long time. I experienced a similar situation a few years ago and was a benefactor of a great quantity of tools by also helping a long time...

Drives...... "also KUDOS on the way you posted all your answers and thank you." I learned that from you, Oh great one. :bowdown: Thanks for the tips. I'll go ahead and pull it apart. KZ

Nice reply KM......it looks like green on the original orange to me. KZ

Picked up today at a sale......1 1/2 & 1 5/16 S-shaped DOE

It's been a while since I've logged on to the forum, but I thought I'd share this. Came across a vise at an estate sale today, it did not have a name on it but I thought it looked somewhat like a Wilton but I was sure it was from China. The basement of the sale was very poorly lit, flashlights...

Yes TDfan, another welcome to GJ. A very good first post. KZ

Funny story, no pics of the Subaru carcases?

Nice finds.
