    Replacement Plomb hammer handle?

    So I have the head of a Plomb 1375 plastic tip hammer. It doesn't have a handle, so I'm on the hunt. The opening is round, 5/8" diameter. I'm not super concerned with an original style handle, but would be nice. Honestly, I won't really use the hammer probably, this is just to make it "complete".

    Western Giant 1/2" drive

    Picked this set up yesterday from CL, paid $25 for it. It's a Western Giant set, ratchet looks to be made by Bog. It's missing a few of the original sockets, a Craftsman V series, Herbrand, and a couple S-K were being used as the replacements. I'm gonna clean it up, hopefully someday find the...

    S-K 13mm socket

    Lost a 13mm S-K 3/8" drive shallow socket, #313, somewhere in my truck while replacing the starter. Anybody got a spare one they would part with? The empty space in the socket tray is bugging me. Shot me a price and let me know. Thanks all.

    Mystery Vintage Williams socket

    Picked this up from eBay and I'm curious to know what exactly it's for. It's marked Williams 1½ 7-BW9. It's a 1 inch drive, the broaching is only about ½ inch deep, but as you can see in picture there is more clearance from that. I'm stumped, and Google search turned up nothing.

    What is this Plomb?

    Went to a local swap meet this morning, spent about $17 and picked up 7 new, to me, Plomb tools to add to my collection. This tool here has me stumped. According to Alloy Artifacts, the stamping i saw on other tools puts it from around 1924-1927. No numbers on it, and don't see it listed in...

    Commander Grinder

    Found this in a bunch of stuff from my late grandpa's garage. From the plate on it I got Commander AC Grinder 1/4 HP and one the bottom of the tag, Sears Roebuck. I haven't tested it, cord looked a little sketchy. Anybody know anything about Commander grinders?
