    Thanks! Not something I think I will ever use, though, for some strange reason. Al

    Mystery tool / item of the week. WTF?

    Sounds good, and makes sense, since it's non magnetic. Thanks! Al

    Mystery tool / item of the week. WTF?

    Here's a new one on me. They measure just under 6" x 3", are non-magnetic and were from the shop of a guy who repaired computers, printers, copiers, and general office stuff. Ever seen anything like this? I found no brand names, a Google search turned up nothing, and I am stumped. Thoughts...

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    Here's mine. Apparently made by Stanley for an industrial application, it's the first time I've ever seen one of these. Odd, huh?

    Mystery tool--anyone recognize this?

    Those look close, but I don't think the one I have was modified. On the other hand, I am no BMW mechanic. Or any other kind, for that matter--I just love tools! Thanks-- Al

    Mystery tool--anyone recognize this?

    Here's one I picked up a while back, and have been unable to identify. It's marked AST-SUB-005, which should be Assenmacher Specialty Tools, and be pretty straightforward to look up, but I found absolutely nothing. Anyone recognize this? Thanks in advance. Al

    Another mystery tool!

    The cam gear holder sounds like the best bet, I've looked up and found similar items. Now all I need to do is find the set of tools that it came out of--should be in this mountain I bought, somewhere! Thanks, everybody! Al

    Another mystery tool!

    Perhaps, I don't know. Makes sense.

    Another mystery tool!

    This came in with a bunch of mechanics and auto body tools I bought. I vaguely recall having seen them before, but do not know what they are or what they attach to. I'm sure someone out there in Garagejournalland can identify them. Any thoughts as to what they might be? Thanks.

    Mystery Tool Set--ever seen something like this?

    I think you nailed it, so we will go with that, thanks. Strange there is no manufacturer name, but maybe whoever made this made the same tool for different companies.

    Mystery Tool Set--ever seen something like this?

    One of my original thoughts as well, but this is made of steel, and there is no way to pound on it.

    Mystery Tool Set--ever seen something like this?

    Well, this set is a mystery to me, and I know a fair amount about tools. I bought a garage full of stuff from a truck mechanic, and this one has me stumped. The pieces look like aluminum, but they are steel. No brand name anywhere, and the numbers don't help either. I thought they were bushing...

    Can you identify this tool?

    Hi, Gang-- This was made by Atlast Manufacturing, a company now out of business. The patent number, 4,169,395, identifies it as a screw removing tool--which makes sense. It takes 1/4" hex bits, and you could put a flathead bit into it as well. Here's the problem: I seem to recall having seen...

    Unidentified Snap-on socket--can you help!

    Drain plug socket sounds like a pretty good guess to me--let's see what else comes in. Thanks! Al

    Unidentified Snap-on socket--can you help!

    Help! I got this odd Snap-on socket in with some other stuff, and I can't find any information on it. The model number is S9473, it's a half inch drive, and there is a magnet inside it which looks like it is supposed to be there. Anyone have direct knowledge or educated guesses on this? I...
