Hello all, I know this is long and am grateful for anyone who does take the time to read it through and any engagement that I receive on here but if you would like to just get to the meat of it. All you really need is the first half of the final paragraph to get an idea, so here is my quick introduction for something I hope to be a key factor in my eventual success in this particular endeavor this thread is what I hope to be ever evolving and new information added as i go if I am able to get enough attention and/or help with my mission to put together a complete inventory of what snap on had to offer in the 1920s to early 30s. I have the intention to document this process and put it up on YouTube or something similar and I would also like to be able to credit any contributors to this cause in this video series. If you have anything you think I may need or have anything that i may not even know about (as im still coming up with things i had previously had no idea existed nor are they in any catalogs) please feel free to comment or message me. Eventually i will find a better way but for now there is a few examples of what I am looking for in the Last paragraph. If it's money you prefer I would be more than happy to Try to make a fair deal. And if it's a trade you prefer I have many tools from snap on dating from the 20s up to brand new as well as a bunch of tools from most major brands. If you require something special that you have been searching for but can't find I would also be happy to do the heavy lifting on that front. I have proven to be quite resourceful and persistent in my pursuit of a specific tool or tool set.
I am currently aiming to put together exactly one complete socket set of every different kind of socket that was made in the 1920s up to maybe 1935. Including one of each of the specialty sockets like the
35-F And 36-F and all of the "A" model sockets like the A16 wing nut socket I believe and A-18 (forget the name of socket) as well as things like an F-9 ferret socket plus Universals. I am not starting from zero of course and for common sockets I would be interested if they are in near perfect condition as that is the ultimate goal, but for now I am mainly looking for help with some of the more oddball sizes and specialty sockets from all drive sizes 9/32 3/8 1/2 5/8 . I am also shooting to get a nice example of all of the different drive tools as well especially a 5/8 drive swivel grip socket insert I forget the part number but for 1/2 it's SG-7 which I do already have a nice example of but could always use more and also a "gripper" midget driver and a better example of an SD-7 as mine isn't in the best shape. I will try to find a way to make a more comprehensive and easy to follow way to keep track of what I am still looking for as I go if this goes as good as I hope. Here is a picture of just some of the types of stuff I will be building these sets from with a little Williams and MTF and husky and craftsman c series mixed in. Thanks in advance for any and all help you have to offer or engage in a mutually beneficial situation that gets me closer to my end goal
