Thank you! I see they made rotating head ratchets back in the 1920's.. that's crazy to me! Thanks for the link!
they had a handful of vintage craftsman stuff and wards sockets too. I would have snatched them up but I didn't want to blow my whole paycheck. haha

That's identical to the pattern on the sockets I can't identify. I'll have to lay them all out and check the sizes. Thanks for sharing!

1/2 drive. Thanks! I was super pumped when I looked on the ground and saw it sitting there. I could hardly contain my excitement leaving the store. Haha.

Around here, the antique store would have that for like $120 and it would be rusted into a single block of ****. Sorry, I just got skunked on tools at yet another antique store today.

Haha well thanks for not telling me I **** everyone.
I still have been unable to find anything about those square sockets. Except for a brand called Indestro. (Found an ad on ebay for them) I'm somewhat tempted to bring them to work and clean them in the mineral spirits tank or maybe sand blast/bead blast them to maybe get some sort of lettering out of them. I really don't want to do either and destroy them.

The stamped steel sockets in your last pic, in my experience, are "usually" Mossburg. Look for a diamond with an M inside.

Never argue with an idiot. A passer by will be unable to tell which of you is the idiot.
