Thread back from the dead...

I was looking through my box tonight and noted that I have an AT&G flip type driver. I used to use this a lot when I did low voltage wiring. Pretty handy little tool with four square driver sizes...

Those screwdrivers look German.

 

[MrMark]

They look like Felo.

 

[dlfiene]

They are excellent screwdrivers and Monte found out for they were made by Felo Company, which is a German Company.
If anybody is willing to sell theres I would love to buy them!!

I gave one of the multi bit ones to my SS this year! I thought it was a very cool screwdriver and of good quality when I had it.

I've had a couple for over 20 years and their still my favorite screwdrivers..
I think Felo screwdrivers from Germany are almost the same design..http://www.calcentron.com/Pages/felo/felo_500_series.htm

If anyone still has some AT&G items they would like to sell let me know. This is was a company based in Detroit, MI and Lexa, AR. My grandfather helped convert the plant in AR in the 70’s. My dad worked for them until they sold out in 1999. My grandmother’s house is right next door to the plant it used to be in. The company that bought them went out of business in the early 2000’s I believe. I have a few items, but wouldn’t mind adding to my collection. I believe they made a lot of tools for other companies, so finding them with their name on the handle is rare.

Hi, I have an AT&G ratcheting screwdriver that is likely brand new. Feel free to send me a message if you're interested.

That Lexa plant maybe was gobbled up by a huge conglomerate. Read here and following

Vintage Xcelite or other Nut Driver Sets

In the 1937 and 1948 Inestro Catalogs the Long Straight “Spinner Type” Wrench appears with this description: “The shafts are firmly fastened into the Socket as well as the fluted yellow enameled Wood Handle.” 391, 3/16; 395, 3/8; 396, 7/16 & 397, 1/2 They are quite basic, unlike Indestro’s...
