Tools from the old world

Hi. Bought small Japanese ERON vises. Used but in good shape. Looks like copy of Record vises.

 

[dutch79]

Anyone knows the connection between Hazet and Helmut Niemeyer? its's also a brand from Germany, Remscheid. I saw it written on Hazet torque wrenches today.

 

[Jure]

For comparison... these are so cute.

i like the smell of brand new knipex

 

[Boredmechanic]

Those allen keys are ****. Must find some.

 

[SawtoothJL]

40 brand new screwdrivers for 20€. All are made by Witte. These are some surplus older models witch were randomly packed at 10 pcs. Brands include Stalhwille, Gedore, Hazet, Witte, Cimco, Wattmaster, Matco and K+G.

That deserves a huge You **** from me! [emoji16] but in all seriousness nice find!!! [emoji106]

i guess simply rebranded for the Helmut Niemeyer www.heni.de store. Like this "JMP" rebranded Hazet for the Matthies car parts stores:

*snip*

Good looking vise. I believe they are good quality. Does 75 indicate the jaw width in mm? How much does it weigh?

Will you post some pictures of your cabinet as well? Does the front cover roll up above or behind the pegboard?

I love this set. They also make it in SAE as well. The keys are slightly longer than usual, and the holder is a high quality dense rubber. The keys do not slide out accidentally, like they do on some lower quality sets, the fit of the keys are quite snug in the holder.

I recommend them. I brought mine from a trip to Germany, but you can buy them from the link below. I'm not sure who has best price..you might have to search.

Looks like Knipex precision? Good choice. I love those snap ring pliers.

Ordered. Ty much!

The Weras are nice but I love Wihas ergo star holder.

Quite sure - from feeling - it rolls behind.


And thanks ALFA for the photos of the keys!!!

Milford recip saw blades

Some more of recent purchases:
These are cheap series I guess. But anyway I'm not very happy with their design. Jaws could be longer and thiner.
The bigger one even has manufacturing defect. The screw has a dent, so it gets stuck while rotating.

Knipex:

And something different - Mitutoyo scale 300 mm/12" - machinist scale. it's rigid (1.2 mm thick). Very nice.

Yes, I like my Wihas.

Stuff I had prior to this order.

 

[durallymax]

Picked the 1000v wrench set for my free tool. Don't have a use for it but have an electrician buddy that will use them.

 

[Boredmechanic]

Trade you a new cornwell impact socket set for those wrenches.

 

[durallymax]

Mmm comfort grips. How do you like the electrical installation pliers.

I installed a fan over the weekend, pulled cable, new box, etc. Did it all with that one pair of pliers. I think they're great. Only thing I'd like more is if the last part of the tip, with the smooth face, was rounded. They fall short on bending loops for screw terminals.
