Lets make an all vintage Snap-on tool picture thread!

[snapmom]

Its older.

Here is an overstrike socket that is 3/4” female square on one end and 1/2” female square on the other. Comments?

1/2” drive socket for 3/4 square hardware.

 

[snapmom]

S24 extension. Date code 1939. I would think it would have knurling at the top, also no "made in USA on it. its like it should be a 1936. The S24 is hard to find.

I picked this up the other day:

sadly, the model designation no longer there. But, looking at the inside

it appears to be a metric case, along with needing a bit of restoration work. The brakes are clean, and should glue up nicely. I have a later BP metric set, and I might transfer it over to this.

 

[Shelbylex]

BMWRD0, create a thread for the restoration of this one - would be a nice project!!!

Hi All -- First post in this thread. Recently came into some 1955 Snap On Ferret's. The tools that I got were all in a tool tray below and I want to know if it was the tray that went with the KR250 tool box that came with the those sets. The Internet archive 1955 catalog doesn't quite make it clear. This picture includes KTR 231 metal tray and the Deep Double Hex Sockets (SF), which somewhere along the line the owner replaced the 19/32" - 3/8" sockets with a set of Deep Single Hex sockets (SFS). Thanks.

snap on model 2583. 1/2 drive. six point. measures 1-1/2" across the flats. no date code nothing but the name an model number.
I would think its for a wartime tool kit, but no idea as to which one.

Ever find more out about these? Mine looks identical but cant say for sure. Any idea about what year?

Never found out anything more. Just about sure its war related, but no idea as to what. neat tool to have in your military odd ball collection.

post a pic of the model number an any factory markings.

Sorry should have included that. The socket tray and socket. The toolbox tray has no markings that I can find.

 

[snapmom]

What are the exact three measurements of the larger tray.

 

[MR.X]

Here's a WW2 Snap On spark plug socket with a similar Walden version.
Found this Air Corps? #37A4708 in an inventory of items required for light mobile repair units of the IX Air Command Service (U.S. IX AF) dated 1944 so they would have been in England at that point.

Solved it. It's (unfortunately) craftsman. This is what I was hoping it was. Thanks for the input.

 

[Steven 33]

Anyone know if this is a complete set or not? I know its not snap on but close enough ha. Theres 10 different ones total with a double of the 2 inch and then it goes 1-13/16, 1-3/4 , 1-5/8 , 1-1/2 , 1-7/16 ,
1-3/8 ' 1-1/4 , 1-1/8 , 1-1/16 i did see the link to a cat someone posted but i couldnt find one that covers all these sizes

 

[Mike'smeatshop]

I was Surprised to see one of my craftsman's had a baby. Didn't know they were even out there.

This is for trade for a chew, chalk or Billy Goat if anyone needs it for their set. Or trade for Belknap tool.

 

[d42jeep]

I found this complete double flare kit and a couple other items at an estate sale a few blocks from home yesterday.

I cleaned up the crowsfoot wrenches. They will go with the 2” one I found in 2018 in Nevada.
-Don
Here is the one that I already had.

 

[Shelbylex]

A quite interesting early model Snap On K60 showed up on ebay:
1. Never saw locks on top
2. Rollers on the drawers

... Like always way too far for an interesting model...

 

[Oldtuleguy]

Late 30s

 

[d.mcfarland]

Cleaning and organizing and came across this stuff. If anyone wants it, just cover shipping. All vintage Blue Point.

 

[3baygarage]

Hoping somebody took you up on that offer.

The 9/32” Gripper socket driver, Gripper screw starter, and sockets I found at the flea market last week. I was super excited.

Pictured with the unmarked 5/16 hex drive handle and individual socket that were with them. I think there’s a chance the hex drive is Walden, seeing as how the set on AA is described as mostly unmarked, but who knows .

The 9/32 socket driver is a whopping 4” long.

Snap-On

6 sockets found.

Just in case anyone can give a positive ID on these.

Removable cross bar. Again, Walden may fit the bill.

The box they came in. Sliding lid missing.

Lauber comparison

I always wondered if these were cast with lead based on the look, but no, it’s iron.

 

[Oldtuleguy]

Nice. That gripper screwdriver is really hard to come by

 

[snapmom]

Nice. That gripper screwdriver is really hard to come by

Ditto.

 

[Oldtuleguy]

Looks like your missing the t handle, also a bit rare. I have one full set took years to find that screwdriver

 

[3baygarage]

Very nice.
Does anyone have the fixed breaker bar? I probably missed it in the thread. Pretty sure I've seen it for sale before.

 

[snapmom]

part of the radio set.

 

[3baygarage]

That's the one, thank you. Very nice.

Does the metal box I posted look like a Snap-On? I looked all around for the missing lid but didn't find one that day. A slider as well.

 

[Oldtuleguy]

As far as I know they came in wood boxes but sure looks like right size

 

[Oldtuleguy]

My walden t-handle looks pretty similar

 

[MysteriousGT1]

Here is a Socket i Just Found, Posted it in Its Own Thread to Hopefully ID it Cause I Have never seen a All Uppercase Font Before!

Sounds Like its a 1942

 

[d42jeep]

These are sockets with the 1942 date code.

For the benefit of those who aren't tracking the other thread, the atypical all-caps "SNAP-ON" branding that @MysteriousGT is referring to is complemented by what looks, to me, like an atypical 1942 stamp, and, even more atypically, a "PAT" marking and number for a heretofore unknown patent granted in 1940. More photos of those features on the other thread.

 

[d42jeep]

I was happy to find some screwdrivers and a cotter pin puller at an estate sale today. The triangle shaped handle with the long number was made for IBM by Snap-on, according to the internet.
