Don, I will bring you a toolmobile next time I head down that way. It is starting to get crowded with them here.

I dunno, I'd guess Roy needs maybe a baker's dozen after that last collection buy...

This eBay pickup won’t take up much space. It’s a 1/4” drive 4770 universal made in 1941.

My tool mobile has been busy lately. Head gasket fun happening here.
The big wheels are great, with all the uneven surfaces around here.

Two more dual marked wrenches arrived today from Todd (Twertsy). The well known chrome discoloration common to Plomb wrenches of the period is pronounced on the larger wrench.

It seems odd that the sockets are too tall for the box. This one has mostly 1941 tools.

And you would be correct. My lack of dexterity and a small bend in the latch had me thinking the sockets were hitting. They fit fine. Mystery solved. It was me. Again!

Hit up an estate sale up in Washington and scored a handful of good bits! I’m excited to see if servicing the 4951 makes it buttery smooth. I sold my last one in my collection reset recently and regretted it.

Indeed. And for those for whom those electroplating rack marks may not be so well known and who have not seen the thread dedicated to the subject while perusing the A to Z Index of Threads in the Stickie at the top of the forum...

After seeing so many broken ones, I view mine as more toys than tools. They work okay but they are fragile.

I've used mine before.
Of the 3 I have one (the first) was broken (Gear) but a rebuild kit fixed that...
This is the type of tool that gets 4-6 ft cheaters put on the handle...

Here are some early Ford pullers.

Found this one in a bucket that contained mostly Model A tools and wrenches marked Ford.
Plomb 3140-S 1-1/4" angled wrench, appears to have a date code but need to remove the paint to be sure.

That is what the Plomb catalog calls a Hog Jaw wrench. Not easy to come by. I think they had 4 sizes and that is the most common one by what I have seen. Overall a very great find in the wild. I have only ever seen 5 in my years of collecting.Found this one in a bucket that contained mostly Model A tools and wrenches marked Ford.

This WF-8 marked ratchet with the 9/32" anvil. Came with a couple of Snap On of the sane era and same size.
