vintage thor tool kit

[olivier]

have any one e idea wath tis thor tools are?
for wath they are use?

 

[Oldtuleguy]

What does that manual say?

 

[RTM]

I don't see anything in the Thor catalogs. What are the numbers on the big thing lower left? Or on the cardboard box? Anything to give us pointers besides the jacobs number (Listed as a thin Collet wrench)?

Seems like they would go with Nut Setters.

There are some sockets here, and the one thing might be a Morse taper adapter.

I found this wartime Thor NOS 4" x 9/16" wire wheel in its original box at a flea market yesterday. The box is beat up, but the attachment does not appear to have been used. It fits a Thor portable electric grinder or multmatic air tool using a 1/2" arbor. Note that the box says Independent Pneumatic Tool Company, Aurora, Illinois. I don't know exactly when the Independent Pneumatic Tool Company of Aurora, Illinois, making and selling Thor brand power tools became the Thor Power Tool Company of Chicago, Illinois, but it wasn't prior to WWII. Independent Pneumatic had several contracts and in 1941 they got $896,000 from the War Deparment and the Defense Plant Corporation to upgrade their facilities.

Yes, I recall seeing photos of your kit here and on G503, Olivier. I was thinking of you when I picked up the brush. I thought you might need it.
