P&C Stuff

[Username already in use]

I recently acquired this 3/4" drive P&C 9209 ratchet. Has some owners marks, but otherwise in great condition.

 

[Soda Jerk]

It's been a while since I've found P&C, but got lucky last weekend at the local college flea. Got this and a Craftsman 15/16" combo for $5 after an initial asking price of $8. Seller thought the Cman was "the " find and practically put no value on the DBE.

I found this partial 1/4" set in my stash recently. It was a pleasant surprise - I had completely forgotten about it! Now to find the AWOL pieces.

Pretty cool... I have some P&C extensions and I think a breaker bar in my collection... Don't see it very often around here...

Holy ****, that's cool! I have a nearly complete 1/4" drive set but have never seen that box!

I love when that happens! Neat set.

P&C Stuff

Picked this guy up at a local antique store this afternoon. Should clean up well.

New faces from P&C Sat.

Scored this p&c top chest this weekend ! Many thanks to rileysan for finding it for me and providing the mule train ! It pays to know people [emoji1] I believe it to be late 40's or early 50's and has similar traits to my proto l.a. box ... I am thinking pressteel made this one as well based in the physical attributes!

It is filthy and needs some love ! I will be getting to it in my pressteel thread in case any one is wondering !


If any body knows which catalogue this box is in I would appreciate a heads up !

Agreed, Pressteel; Glad you finally got it!

 

[Private Lugnutz]

That's a nice match.

 

[twertsy]

Ugh.........nice stack Ben..........again

Nice score Smoke! I would be happier than a pig in slop to find either one of those boxes around here. But to find the matching pair from different sellers.... Seems some people have all the luck!

Well I think the top box is about 10 years newer than the toolmobile but they are both still super nice to have ! As you will notice the common thread on quite a few of my pressteel boxes is rileysan [emoji51] about half of all I have have had come from him! I have figured out his craftsman kryptonite and figured out how to exploit it !

While that may be true, the identical color and logos pretty much negate any production distinctions you think you have found. What are they by the way? Are the pulls supposed to be cupped like the roller's?

 

[Username already in use]

Looks like the pulls were cupped in the '48 catalog. Here's an image of the #9990 box from the '48 catalog:

 

[Private Lugnutz]

Lucky guess.

Keep the door closed for photos, Smoke!

This is the correct box for my p&c tool mobile ! Mine has slightly more modern pulls but I am still very happy with it ! Thanks again rileysan for being such an enabler [emoji23]

I picked these up at an estate sale I was at the other day, cleaned up pretty good too:

Set was complete, but had a little bit of chrome loss.
And dug these two up from my stash as I have been cleaning and organizing as I unpack:

1/4 and 3/8, not sure if they made any 1/2ers. Need to get a rebuild kit for the 1/4.

Wow - nice find!

I think these are the only P&C things I have, an breaker & extension... Don't really see much of it around here....

 

[RagTopTA]

Found this little P&C ratcheting driver/drill on fleabay for the cheap. Its pretty neat and had 4 bits in the top. nice Alum end cap.

 

[jabberwoki]

Very swank.

 

[alton1911]

I see a few tools by P&C. Does anyone here have a wish list? Maybe trying to find a few sockets? Mostly sockets here.

 

[d42jeep]

Here are my P&C estate sale finds today including the first P&C single offset DBE wrench.

I rediscovered this P&C 3/8 drive mini-speeder in my hoard. For mechanics with small hands? 3rd pic is comparison to normal size 3/8 speeders.

 

[Outlawmws]

For cramped spaces! I want one!

 

[shanny19]

Yeah, I can actually see myself using that mini speeder.....very cool

 

[Provincial]

I picked up some P&C at an estate sale Wednesday. #2225, #2236 and N85 DBE wrenches, a #2740 combo with the open end removed, a 4041 Battery Terminal Puller, and a #1808 8" pipe wrench. (Photo #1, with a Plomb DBE that photobombed the P&C's at the bottom)

The pipe wrench is in excellent shape. I have not done any clean-up on it, and as you can see in the photos, it has no paint. I am used to seeing either red or blue paint on the handles. At first, I thought that it had been blasted and polished, but the more I look at it, the finish seems original.

Anyone have ideas on this?

Make that two of us.

 

[why worry]

Provincial, my grandfather worked for P&C (tool and die maker) in the forties and told me that a lot of guys that worked at P&C would get tools unfinished. Early employee benefit. Anyway always enjoy using and seeing P&C tools, well made and brings back memories of grand dad.

[Musicinabottle]

I have one P&C offset box wrench in 3/4 and 25/32. That's it!

 

[Ole Slewfoot]

Interesting, but is it a J.P.Danielson made wrench? they have a date just above the business end of the cage, and also on the dynamic jaw.

 

[Provincial]

It looks like "G 1 8" just above the cage. The jaw has an 8 on the upper part, but the smaller markings are not legible.

 

[RagTopTA]

Found a pretty nice P&C pipe wrench yesterday and a hammer today! Same vendor had the tack hammer a few weeks ago!

 

[3baygarage]

A couple speeders.

3/8” half speeder and 1/2” flex head (1930’s era)

I haven’t found a cataog reference to the 3/8. The handle doesn’t revolve, but there is a fixed ball bearing as if a revolving handle was locked over it and perhaps came apart. Anyone know?

Just glad all you P&C hounds were sleeping at the wheel when these came up for sale!

Some P&C tool boards pretty cheap on the bay!

 

[Oldtuleguy]

That looks like a collection waiting to happen!
