Good find!!!

I saw this item many years ago, it is a metal forming tool for making caps, here is the description from the patent:

"The object of my invention is to provide a simple and cheap tool for crimping or swaging the rim of a sheet-metal cap upon the hanged mouth of a can-spout as, for example, the spout of a varnish-can..."

Looks great! Thanks for your efforts keeping things running!

I agree with IPTOOLS. Down through the years I have sure wished I had some.

Thank you for keeping papawswrench going!

Good evening, folks!

After a simple error one of the site's main pages, the forums went down for a while yesterday. Apologies for the inconvenience!

So after a savvy support tech was able to fix it, I decided to update the forum to the latest version of the software. I noticed that the layout has changed a little bit, so if anyone has any questions or needs help finding something, don't hesitate to ask!

I think for barrel bungs ( steel drums 55 gallon )

I was taught these were for water valves, but now I'm not sure.

Any one?
