I inherited a lot of tools quite a few years ago, mostly being a mix of OLD Craftsman, Plomb/Proto and Williams (with some misc Snap-On, Blue Point, MAC, Stanley, etc). So here's the old stuff first.

Breakers, T-bars, a couple of 'Superrachets', my 3/8 drive extension (all I still use almost daily, besides the ratchets)

1/4" drive sockets

3/8" drive sockets (missing 13/16" has been replaced with a new Williams USA)
DSCN1625.jpg


1/2" drive sockets (the rest of my completed set is old Craftsman & Proto)
DSCN1627.jpg


3/4" drive sockets
DSCN1641.jpg


Screwdrivers
DSCN1629.jpg


Pliers (with Plasti-dip handles, still used daily)
DSCN1630.jpg


3/8" drive phillips and swivel (would've been in 1st pic, but found them after I took it)
DSCN1642.jpg


Now the new Williams stuff.

1/4" drive Standard
DSCN1634.jpg


1/4" drive Metric (with a few misc Snap-On sockets mixed in, they are EXACTLY the same)
DSCN1640.jpg


3/8" drive Metric (Williams USA shallows, Williams Taiwan deeps)
DSCN1637.jpg


REALLY pleased with the quality of the new Williams stuff, both USA (Snap-On) and Taiwan (Blue Point). I'll be buying a lot more of it in the near future.:thumbup:

I grabbed one of those Vulcan wrenches as part of a huge tool lot I purchased. I also picked up a couple of both 3/8 and 1/2 superratchet repair kits.

I have some williams sockets. Would have to pull them out of toolbox thou. Too cold to go outside right now. Finally getting some snow here :) I want to get the super wrenchs. Always see them at the flea market when I go. They are pretty nice tools.

Looks just like the snap on screw drivers :headscrat

Williams is a Snap-On company, so they get some hand-me-down designs from the older product lines. Sockets look just like the SO ones as well :D

Here are mine:

Cool crows foot crescent wrench!

Here's some of my few pieces:

1 1/4 SUPERWRENCH



3/8 100 Ft Lb Torque Wrench






I thought these were the same company but I was wrong and Williams England is a separate company. These are 1/2" Dr. Whitworth sockets made in England, they are nice quality.

I've been impressed with my B52-EHA so I ordered these Williams flex ratchets to add to my collection. The S52 really is beefy, and for under $50 a real bargain.

Vulcan was Williams attempt to enter the mobile tool market . not sure how long their trucks were on the road, but don't think they lasted long.

Most of my Williams. The b54 flex is by far my favorite ratchet. The b52 is in need of a rebuild.

The Standard 1/2" is my goto for that drive size. Really stout ratchets! The 3/8 is kind of like a CM/Easco RHFT in feel, but the 1/2" are MONSTERS.

I just got an s-52 off eBay as well as 26 new supercombos. I'll post pics when they arrive. But I am pretty excited to get rid of my Home Depot bought huskys.

Here are mine:

If only you could buy them in the UK, I'd take the screwdriver handles over the snap on junk any day

Real nice!

Here are some Vulcan Metric DOE I just picked up from ebay, thank you "oldtoolbox" if you are here!! They are like new, just a chrome chip on one. I got duplicates of the 12/14mm and missing the 13/15mm. Willing to sale/trade the extra 12/14.

A mix of old and new. Old ratchet, wrench and three sockets - all that remain of my grandfather's Williams stuff except a few Fleet and Snap-on sockets not included in the photo. And some new screwdrivers.
