[My46Willys]

Hello everyone. I have asked and asked what these tools are and what are they used for but not one person has been able to say for sure.

Are the tips copper? Could be a custom soldering iron.

Looks like it might be to create treads on tires?

 

[My46Willys]

That looks pretty close but I never knew of my dad putting in any windshields. He was a heavy duty mechanic. Thanks for your input

 

[My46Willys]

Yes. One of the tips is copper! That one in particular looks like it might have been homemade. My dad was a heavy duty mechanic. I know he did do some soldering. You might be on to something! Thanks

 

[My46Willys]

I don't think that they are for tire repair. The are clean as a whistle. No rubber/black marks on them. Thanks for your input.

Really small garden weeder (for those really small weeds).
