appears to be a 1960 n400 1/2" drive.. never saw the handle like that.. single pawl.. found it in my dad's workshop, rusted froze.. cleaned up inside and it's awesome :)

Take a wrench.. Put the box end on the nut.. Nail the wrench with a 4lb hammer.. You've got your two nuts off and saved some money ;) little kroil might be the ticket as well ;) must sound like a millwright or something ;) lol

I got a little experimental with a 44808 (last USA 3/8 raised panel pear head) that the plastic selector was broke on. Can't ____ it any more right? ;) I noticed that the pawl is more of a u shape vs a v.. Partly explains the auto reverse. So I took a die grinder and made it more of a v.. It...

I use a broken pair of tweezers (one half) with the poking end bent about 1/2" from the end in kind of an obtuse L shape (100 degrees?) keeps your hand out of the way and is stable holding it in there :) best of all it was free lol

Ah the dimple thing, proto sockets had a star.. Why oh why other than some add in strength where it's not going to break anyway ;) I decided to say screw originality as I want them to work well (as they are meant to) and am taking my die grinder and a round bit (ball shape), carefully putting...

You know, the VW beetle of 1/2 drive ratchets! ;) note the sk under it and the clip that's the same.. (if you can see it).. some of the teeth are broke off the (craftsman). I'd say chances are good that pop hadn't lubed 'er/ the spring was getting weak.. stomped on it maybe to break something...

Thank you guys :) I did find a few of the china ones also.. guess that's better than no gear ;) I was also pointing out for whoever might want to know, that the big gear clip is the exact same as in an sk round head.. never know, sk might sell you one ;).. meanwhile I got thinking how the...

Sadly I couldn't find a new gear for my dad's 44985 .. He'd got a little wild with it at some point and broke some teeth.. Still works but.. Beware! Lol.. But I did discover that the ring around the gear housing is the EXACT same as an sk round head 42470 :) hope that helps somebody ;) (I'm sure...

Facom all!!! 😂👍🏻

Thought maybe I could save a few the hassle of being misled.. I've got a giller 1/2" drive (dig the simple, non decorative handle.. little thinner than an sk but longer knurling section) and a mac x9r 3/8" drive.. both 60 tooth, love the action. while the mechanisms have the same diameter, the...

Found these three for $29 after shipping.. couldn't find a picture of the insides of a 77jc so I thought I would do the world a service.. loving the tuff one and.. well the proto as well :) I have a newer looking 5249 and didn't know they had slightly different handles. (to answer the search...

Wish the metal box sets still said "$14.98" on the paper insert :pimpflash

Could be that Wright makes wrenches for people that hammer on them with zero f***s given lol (because the company they worked for bought them) so no need for flashy and/or long ones.

The only bonney tool I have is a 3/8 drive 6" extension that somebody ground male end down into a punch :( (bargain box from yard sale).. bonney affliction indeed :( (my first post, it's official!)
