Picked this up for a couple bucks. 1/4 drive inch pound beam torque wrench. I can not find a maker’s mark on this. Red handle is aluminum, beam is made of steel. The piece with the graduations on it is brass. Can anyone identify this. Thanks

I picked up this strange alligator with a movable jaw over the weekend. I t really looks like a miniature timber jack. The only mark I can find on it looks vaguely like VIM. Does anyone know what this was for or who possibly made it? Thanks.

This was in a box of Skelton keys that I picked up today at a swap meet. Appears to be made of copper with brass at the tips. Looks like a feeler gauge but every piece measures the same thickness .038 in. Marked 4 through 20, the point marked 20 also says U.S. STANDARD. I have no idea what it...

I found this at a garage sale today. I thought I knew exactly what it was. Ratchet was completely jammed up, I only paid a few bucks for it. Cleaned and greased she works perfectly. Does not read Snap on or Ferret anywhere, the only marking on the shaft is AT-8022 (not sure about the T)...

I found this neat wrench at an estate sale today. Never seen one before. One side reads 61M ELLIS, the other PAT NOV 303. The adjustable part is free and works. The hinged part is seized up, although l’m not sure how it works, I think you pull out the small knob on the side to unlock the hinge...

I found this set at a swap meet this weekend in Pennsylvania. Although it is in nice condition I believe it is missing some pieces. Also I’m not sure about the toolbox it came in, if it is the correct box is the color correct? It doesn’t appear to have been repainted, if it was repainted...

I found these in a dollar bin at a swap meet last fall. Can’t find any info on them other than the little bit on Alloy Artifacts. These ere slightly different than the ones on AA. Inside of handle reads “patent applied for”.

I’ve had this ratchet for years, it works perfectly, I think it was probably in a box of tools that I bought. Was like this when I got it. I never use it because it’s missing the handle. I have looked on eBay and online and can’t seem to find a replacement handle. Does anyone know if/where I can...

I picked this up today. I didn’t realize until I got home it was 5/16 drive, when I looked at it I thought it was 9/32. Unfortunately it is incomplete. Five of the seven original sockets, the box and what may or may not be the original crossbar for the handle. The decal is pretty beat and the...

I found these at an estate sale. I’ve never seen a pair of pliers quite like them. Having trouble making out the first letter in the name on the forged mark. Any ideas what these are used for?

I only need one. I can buy a dozen on eBay, but I only need one. Anybody on here have a spare?

Came out of my Williams roll cabinet haul. When I first saw this I thought someone jammed a cheater bar on this 1/4 ratchet. After cleaning the gunk from around the ratchet handle I could see it was manufactured this way. Bare steel handle measures 12 inches and has a roll pin that looks like...

I couldn’t find any posts on here about this old ratchet. Picked it up at a garage sale. Too bad there were not any sockets. Easily the oldest tool that I own. Alloy artifacts says it was made until about 1918. Would like to see pictures of a complete set.

My brother picked this set up at an estate sale. I can’t find any pics or info on the strange ratchet that came with the set. Ratchet is stamped SK but looks strange to me. I have not seen it in person and do not have any more photos of it. Any one hav any idea what this is? Thanks
