Looking for info on this wrench. Stamped Witherby 2770-0 , and in raised letters Drop Forged Germany. I don't think it is affiliated with the T. H. Witherby Edge Tools Co.

Sounds like a good way to tile a vertical wall
Exactly. I haven't done it yet, but I figure on running right up this wall with a number of courses. Using longer screws to set the tile bottom edge on. I know an old timer that did this sort of work for many years. He told me he used wire to hold em in place for that situation. I figure screws for hooking the wire to.

I sort of wonder why there's no category here for Masonry. But I'd say a fair number of everyone here can lay concrete block. Maybe have some nice antique trowels and such. Anyway, I been using this little trick for setting granite tiles against existing wall. I use concrete screws. Picture I got shows one. I put in a handful of em, 10mm out from the concrete here. When I set the 16 x 16 inch tile in place with mortar buttered on the back, she seats right against the screws. It ain't that simple but it sure makes it easier.

Thanks for looking Lou and Lewill.  There are three on ebay currently.  I made an offer on the one Lewill posted but was turned down.  It has condition issues - otherwise would be an acceptable price.

I have 8 different 4" Wards Master Quality wrenches in my collection. I'm currently in York, Nebraska at the wrench club meeting and auction. I'll check my extra pile when I get back home the beginning of the week.
