Good day at the flea market

[jayrush13]

Went to the flea market and picked up some tools

P&C 1" 1-1/16" 1-1/8" and 1-1/4" $15
I started looking for P&C when I found out on Alloy artifacts that for a short time in the 1920's they where produced in my home town of Lebanon Oregon so they might not be the best quality but will work for me

Then 2 Quick-wedge screw holding screw drivers that i have been meaning to get for work and a P&C 1/2"-9/16" double box end all for $5

Nice grab!

I like the low profile of the 1/2X9/16 box end. Reminds me of the old Plomb's. What's the overall length on that wrench?

Its length is right at 8" P&C was acquired by Plomb so it may be just re branded Plomb or Proto

From the ones I've encountered, they're actually pretty good quality. The fit and finish is good, and the sockets/wrenches I've used fit good. For $15 you did good.

I don't really collect them, but I have a few that I think are unique and they all work good. Can't beat the local thing, especially anymore.

Those screw holding screwdrivers are pretty nice, looks just like the two I have except mine have red handles. I love 'em

That is one nice looking Husky DOE. I have a New Britain DOE, it seems to be a very nice wrench.

I should of said the best shape as in some rust and owners marks but i don't really care about that stuff as long as they tighten nuts and bolts

I figure they must be good quality or they would not be around still they have had there fair share of use
