I've seen sets like that before, the makers name doesn't come to mind right now. Just one handle with removable ends. More than one maker had similar sets. That one is overpriced.Ad state old "wranch" set.

The manufacturer is Park Metalware, which would become Xcelite, changing their name to the brand name of their most popular later product, after 1953. They made several size sets of the interchangeable wrench heads. That set, their largest, had two different size handles for two ranges of heads, smaller and larger. We have a Park Metalware thread. A few of these sets, including mine, are shown there. You can find it in the A-Z Index of Threads in the Sticky.

Agreed. Maybe 2 wrench heads missing in the smaller range. Should be 8 of those, 9 large, 17 total. Should be two sets of handles, 4 total, a straight and an offset for both ranges of wrench heads.looks to be almost complete.
OP
Can't really travel anywhere as I'm caring for my mom. This keeps my big brain active. I'd like to rearrange the garage but that will only stir the hornets nest.
