Ah, yes. THANK YOU to wesaveyou$ ! I bought a bunch of SAE wrenches just days before my truck with SAE died and I went to a truck with metric. Never even used them. LOL!

IIRC, I bought it from a generic ebay closeout joint called "Wesaveyou$" around 2016 or so... they ran low starting bid auctions on a wide weird variety of Armstrong stuff and a bunch of other things (still do, maybe a good source for Keurig cups?), but they ran out of Armstrong stuff a long time ago. Do you have Eliminator tools?

It's useful, but I doubt my hack self needs it to get by, and I've got a loose ratchet drive gear or three to replace it. Send me a pm and we'll figure it out.

Yes ,I use the eliminator set but my 3/8 set is missing the adapter.
I even have a few Matco pieces in larger sizes.
I will check out the seller to see what they have interesting even though they are out of the ARmy stuff..
PM sent!

Which Craftsman pro would fit the bill ?
The reason I ask is I have several and if I have the one that you need I will donate it to the cause!
SK drivers are still in production and use the same shaft.

Once I went to take pictures I realized I had more Armstrong stuff than I thought.

Ratcheting wrenches 11/32 - 15/16 (a few Matco's in sizes that Armstrong didn't have)
Ratcheting Wrenches 10 - 19 and 21, 24 (same as above with Matco's)
Speed wrenches - 10 - 19 (rarely used, but handy for threaded rod, adjustment feet, etc)
45 degree offset wrenches 3/8 - 1-1/8
45 degree offset wrenches 8 - 24 and 27, 30, 32
1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" ratchets, 1/4" torque wrench, locking extensions, stud remover and screwdriver

I also have a fair amount of Armstrong era Craftsman, Allen and Gearwrench (made in USA universal impacts 3/8" and 1/2" metric sets)
