With all the great stuff you all have been posting, I feel kinda silly posting my meager finds. But I think they are worth something. A Thorsen slip joint plier (didn't know Thorsen made pliers). Cleaned, double-dipped the handles, and threw it in my work truck. And the 3/8" corded drill is...

Just happened upon a Craftsman 115v corded drill in a second hand store today. And it said made in USA on it! Heck, even the drill chuck said "Craftsman". Plugged it in at the store and it ran both directions, so I had to snag it. Got it home, took it apart, cleaned and greased. Great spare...

FYI Was skimming ebay and I found a set of 4 Bonney double flare wrenches up for bid. Item # 330444038489

I'm putting together a small tool kit for my niece to keep in her car. Went looking for a tool box to carry the items. Didn't want a plastic tote, or a regular metal box because it would be too big. Finally stumbled upon this older S-K box that had been abused. I had some metallic green paint...

Came across a ratchet today. Didn't buy it, because I've never heard of the brand before. JS 12000 USA. Looks very much like the S-K 45175 fine tooth currently in the Classifieds. It was in fair shape, ratchets in both directions. Any good?

Found this ratchet today. All I could read was "Indestro". The mechanism felt OK, so I snagged it. After cleaning the outside, and throroughly cleaning and greasing the internals, this is what I found: I always thought Indestro was WW2 era stuff, but this thing doesn't look that old. And it...

I have a running index of repair kit numbers for Craftsman ratchets. I've collected them out of Sears tool catalogs and ebay photos of kits for sale. I probably have 30 or so ratchet #'s listed with the appropriate repair kit #'s. Would anybody be interested in this info? If so, I can post what...

What the heck is wrong with Sears??? :headscrat Their Craftsman tools were the one thing that made me visit the store regularly. Now the name "Craftsman" is just another Amercian tool company sold out overseas. You know how Sears always had really nice tool catalogs? I'd pick one up every...

You probably know that MasterCool was bought out about a year and a half ago. Someone else bought them, so everyone figured parts would just come form another manufacturing plant. Wrong! Just had a customer whose MasterCool electronic thermostat went out. Called around - no parts available...

As a HVAC contractor, I answer alot of customer questions. After awhile you realize how many times a day you're doing the same "speal". In order to cut down on repeating myself, I placed the answers to the most commonly asked questions on my website. This way, people can get answers without...

I'm looking for a few items to complete my set. Bonney tools that were made during the 70's and 80's, when the Triangle Tool Corporation controlled them out of South Carolina. I need a double box-end wrench 13mm x 15mm. Part number MDB1315. 12 point, full polish. And a 12 point, 3/8" drive...

Hello! Just joined up - looks like you all have an interesting forum here! As the name says, I'm a Bonney tool fan. Hopefully I'll meet some more Bonney admirers over the next coupel of months.
