naaah.... I've seen your black set zbadass..and now you're adding light blue! I've sold a few things and traded even more things. Just trying to finish my set and build a set for each of my boys. Not everything I post ends up in my toolbox.

My black sets not that big. I'm going to try and get some more pearl blue, but you know it's hard to find. You got orange, green, yellow, black, and I seen some pearl blue in your collection as well. Just remember I'm your other son from the south!! LOL.

The pearl blue stuff can get pretty crazy. The couple blue bits. And pieces I have were comparatively cheap else I wouldn't have them. Unbelievable some of the prices they go for. Primarily I have 3 colours... My set is orange, my eldest sons is yellow and I think I'm going for red for my youngest. They'll have basic wrench/ratchet and socket sets as well. The black is basically handled drivers and other stuff I couldn't get in orange. The green stuff I'm not sure why I have most of it lol. Good buys I guess. I like the color and considered making my youngests set green but i just cant afford it. Its almost as expensive as the blue stuff. Some ill keep some ill sell/trade. It's all one big vicious cycle anyways. As long as I've got a nice core set to use I'm happy.

New arrival from last weekend....

Hey guys!

I need a little help from the experts on this one...has anyone seen a set of these, and do you know what they are called/used for?

I picked these up at a flea market, and haven't seen a set like them before.

-Cornwell (no actual part #) just Pat'd Applied For
- 1 specialty socket made to fit the inserts
- Kinda looks like these are some kind of deburring device. You turn the ratchet and each of the little spindles goes around.
- 4 sizes included in this set...not sure if it's missing a few or not.
-came with metal box that is made just for their size/fit.

Any help is appreciated.

For $28 at an estate sale, I won't complain!

Sockets were 50 cents each, screwdrivers at $1. I brought a five gallon bucket and just tossed all I wanted in there. The seller decided not to bother dig through and itemize, sold it all for $20. The drawer unit is missing three drawers, but for $8, I am happy.

Tools did suffer some surface rust and now soaking in solvent as I type this. In hindsight, I kinda wish I had bought all the Craftsman sockets regardless if they were duplicates of what I have at those prices!

Sweet :) What do you think of those Wilde pliers? I've been eyeballing the Knipex 45 10 170 and 45 21 200 but those Wilde are less than half the price and US made. What's the minimum ring gap on those?

I picked up these over the last couple of weeks. I also recently picked up some craftsman industrial metric ratchet wrenches, the 12pc snap ring pliers set, 12pt shallow 3/8" socket set, and a universal spark plug socket. No pics, I'm stuck in Chicago for 3 months while those are being shipped to my home in Louisiana.

Just the minimum gap you can squeeze the tips in. Outside to outside measurement between tips with the pliers fully closed. Just curious because the Knipex list one pair as 2.2mm and one as 3.6mm minimum ring gap. I think I'm inspired to place my first Epstein order :beer:
