Tools from the old world

[AutomatiquE]

@uuze : Welcome on board Do you have any pics of your store and tools you sell ?

 

[Monte]

Looks like made in Wera's factory.

yep !

Hello All,

welcome to the forum Mr. Cool !

I think the puller set is made by Nexus

After looking at the package it appears I used the right blade(t118B for thick metal) so I don't know. I think I still have the broken blade in my garage so I'll try and find it.

time to buy the new Bosch jigsaw

Well the Swiss made one costs like $1600 last time I checked(2 years ago...) and I only spend that kind of money on guns...

1600 for a gun and not a coffee machine ?? You´re crazy dude !!

btw. Starbucks coffee....the Starbucks coffee they sell in the food stores here is "Made in Denmark" :

Might be USA see pics below.

could be USA too

Nice, available here? Also I stick mainly to American made work wear from Carhartt or the US military.

Only could find german web shops.
I heard the americans prefer american brands

Made by Wera?

yes

Those diamond impact bits look so "industrial", doesn't look like anybody sells them in the USA.

They´re brand new over here, i guess they will be available in 2012 in the US. In the meantime you could buy the Wera set

Another cool collaboration by Bosch with Wera this time..

Monte how do you rate those bits, are they as good as lets say pbswiss ones?.

I didn´t use them yet since i don´t own a impact driver (yet)
The regular Wera bits are quite good, but i don´t own any PB Swiss bits so i can´t compare
(well i own one PB Swiss Torx 10 bit which i didn´t use so far....)

I like the look of the Impaktor holder but I wonder if there is gonna be a "perfect fit" with my pbswiss bits.

At least the Wera bits fit perfect

ps: I think PB don´t offer impact bits ?

Sheet metal tools

nice metal working tools !! Looks like you have a bigger project ?

Hi to all! I'm new here and have been looking around this site for couple of weeks now. I run a little tool store in Finland so tools are a job and a hobby to me. I have found really good information from here, so thanks to all of you!

Welcome to the board !!

No... Just for fun and practice... and because cheap ones are little bit too cheap.

btw; That "detection box" is really wicked, firs I didn't notece, but box handel is extension. Really nice looking.

Regarding the 18 Volt Festool drills in the USA...:

[american lockpicker]

So it seems; Hazet 1789 N-1, so it is German made because Hazet catalog reads: "Made in germany"

Not all Hazet is made in Germany, like the hose clamps, flashlights, knives, etc.

Hallo I like tools from Finland like Fiskars.

time to buy the new Bosch jigsaw

I blame it on the blade the 1590 EVSK is perfection and couldn't possibly improved upon.

1600 for a gun and not a coffee machine ?? You´re crazy dude !!

I know right. Anyways I picked this up at Sears after work today.

Bonus points if you can guess what this German made item is.

btw. Starbucks coffee....the Starbucks coffee they sell in the food stores here is "Made in Denmark" :

Damn I've been ripped off. All the Starbucks here is American... Around the turn of the century I went to one to try their coffee(horrible tasting and nothing like whats in the glass bottles...) and got a tin of mints and the tin was made in Switzerland. Everyone I've seen since has been chinese though.

Sooo I gotta ask is this Danish made coffee available here???

@ American Lockpicker:

Interesting.

Monte.Much thanks fr pictures "Facom"

[Mr Cool]

So it seems; Hazet 1789 N-1, so it is German made because Hazet catalog reads: "Made in germany"

The Beta puller has no COO on the tool so it may be of German origin.

I think it's made by www.buco.de/ or www.kukko.com/
...or made in the house by Hazet (?).

Thanks for the links but I checked both sites and couldn't find the tool on either site .

welcome to the forum Mr. Cool !

Thank you Monte! Ahhh yes Nexus seems to be the manufacturer.

 

[unknow82]

the cheaper the better

well actually... I got really cheap chinese set and those particular ones where little bit too cheap.

Here is more Beta stuff, this time old tools.
Grip pliers do not read "Italy" on them, so that is sure not made by Beta,
Ones in left are sheet metal snips, really old desing.

All those tools are unused and from mid 1980's

So it seems; Hazet 1789 N-1, so it is German made because Hazet catalog reads: "Made in germany"

1789-1 is made in Germany.

German tool fans,

If you were going to get a set of Wera Kraftform Plus – Series 900 (Chisel drivers) would you get them with or without the 1/4" drive in the handle? (932 /6 or 932 S/6?)

On one hand, if you never use it - it is a waste, just an area to gather dirt and grime and I think they would be easier to strike with the rounded profile.

On the other, you may run into places where it is useful.

I have to admit, I have some 1/4" drive handles with this and I have never used that...but it might be different with screwdrivers.

 

[american lockpicker]

I never used it but more features can't be bad.

 

[I can fix anything]

[greesha]

Just picked up a gedore 4550-20 torque wrench

quick question its rated from 15-150 foot pounds.

I looked and do these have accuracy ratings similar to snap on, where its 20% limit limit of range, or 20%-100% of range accurate?

 

[AutomatiquE]

I think the puller set is made by Nexus

Yes, could be, thanks for info

New Facom releases:

I know these new tools, i've seen them in a recent fair. The oil filter wrenche may be a good idea. Others...

Here is more Beta stuff, this time old tools.

Nice tools, specially the old shears on the left

Jenbro "british made no 35" Britool 1944

Always a pleasure to see old quality tools, thanks for posting


Hazet 610N.






Older profile.

 

[Monte]

What is a brand of a cutters with red handle?

It´s "Lux" brand. www.lux-tools.de
Sold at the "OBI" big box stores. But i don´t know who the OEM is, the design is already a bit older ("american style cutters") Maybe made by Orbis

I blame it on the blade the 1590 EVSK is perfection and couldn't possibly improved upon.

lol ok you´re right

I know right. Anyways I picked this up at Sears after work today.

nice coffee machine ! But i prefer industrial type machines instead of household machines

Bonus points if you can guess what this German made item is.

lamp ? vase ?

Damn I've been ripped off. All the Starbucks here is American...

Sooo I gotta ask is this Danish made coffee available here???

i guess the european coffee is manufactured in Denmark and the american in america. Don´t make sense to ship coffee in paper cups from Denmark to the US i guess ?

Monte.Much thanks fr pictures "Facom"
V!

lol ok there is always a "too cheap" of course

The locking pliers could be german

German tool fans,

good question..... What´s the price difference ?

Just picked up a gedore 4550-20 torque wrench

quick question its rated from 15-150 foot pounds.

I looked and do these have accuracy ratings similar to snap on, where its 20% limit limit of range, or 20%-100% of range accurate?

i don´t know if i understood the question right , but it is accurate to +-3% of any reading. If you adjust it to 15 pounds for example it is accurate plus/minus 3% and if you adjust it to 100 pounds again +-3% ....150 pounds +-3%.....

I know these new tools, i've seen them in a recent fair. The oil filter wrenche may be a good idea. Others...

no pics ?
yeah the wrench seems to be a neat idea !!! They can keep the other things Ok maybe i could need the impact wrench

Hazet 610N.

wow nice !!!!!! My most favourite box wrenches

 

[Olafur]

Hazet 610N.

Sweet!

 

[ECP]

A relic I found this week:

Going to get some TLC pretty soon.

And here she is

Hammer1963 did a wonderful job restoring this piece. He even formed the handle to make it feel better (and it feels great). I will get a better picture of how he worked the faces, truly amazing!

The handle is actually colored by black shoe polish. Worked really well actually.

 

[Flash21]

good question..... What´s the price difference ?

At one US supplier who carries both versions in 6pc sets, the version with the 1/4" drive is $6 USD more -- or $1 USD more per driver for the 1/4" driver in the handle.

 

[american lockpicker]

urinal?

No. LOL

Jenbro "british made no 35" Britool 1944

Awesome Stillson(?) wrench. You should also put a pic in the pipe wrench thread.

lol ok you´re right

nice coffee machine ! But i prefer industrial type machines instead of household machines

I don't drink enough coffee for that...

lamp ? vase ?

Emsa thermos

http://www.emsa.com/english/home/

i guess the european coffee is manufactured in Denmark and the american in america. Don´t make sense to ship coffee in paper cups from Denmark to the US i guess ?

They sell coffee in bags over there right? (I'm asking this question even though I have an assorment of German coffee in my cabinet in the kitchen...)

Oh yesterday I was at Sears and I couldn't leave without looking at tools and I noticed they are carrying Stanley and Piquic(Canadian) screwdrivers now.

[unknow82]

In my oppinion; Wera makes best looking sockets in market.

I really, really like them too! The knurling is wonderful!

Of course I also like my Hazet ones. the 1/2" sockets with the double row of knurling are even better.

 

[Monte]

And here she is

beautiful result !

At one US supplier who carries both versions in 6pc sets, the version with the 1/4" drive is $6 USD more -- or $1 USD more per driver for the 1/4" driver in the handle.

Ok, that´s not that much..... Maybe American Lockpicker is right:

I never used it but more features can't be bad.

...and you can do this

I don't drink enough coffee for that...

open a "The real Starbucks" store

Emsa thermos

strange design

They sell coffee in bags over there right? (I'm asking this question even though I have an assorment of German coffee in my cabinet in the kitchen...)

usually yes but these are also available here in several food stores for 1.49€ "Made in Denmark". ....Ready to drink... but cold...

Oh yesterday I was at Sears and I couldn't leave without looking at tools and I noticed they are carrying Stanley and Piquic(Canadian) screwdrivers now.

Bosch cordless drill



Wurth glue gun

[american lockpicker]

Now I need to put those on my Wera wishlist along with Chisel drivers and that Kraftform Kompact...

An old world version of a new world drink...

Nice looking set-up Monte!

Those snips and hammers look very interesting. Sure wish we had a set up like that of such high quality drivers....guess its a good thing they don't, I wouldn't be able to save ANY money!

 

[hrwerkzeug]

I picked these up while in Berlin last week...Hazet E-torx set and brake piston adjuster. Every time I go to Germany I come back with more Hazet tools.

 

[unknow82]

Stahlwille 10811, also known as; Gedore 261
Don't know original manufacturer, hope our German writers can?

Nice feel, little too heavy.

not as pretty as I thought they were going to be, but still nice. Thanks

No disrespect but i cant see all the fuss about BETA tools the finish and design of their spanners just look poor to me however apart from the obvious Snap-on, Facom, Mac etc i do like Hazet stuff.

 

[epiphany]

Did anyone mention that the suitcase is made in germany?

[american lockpicker]
