RATCHETING CROWS FOOT SOCKET SET
« on: September 28, 2014, 07:08:29 PM »
I found this ratcheting crows foot socket set online over the weekend. It's made by Tubing Appliance Co.Inc. Proto bought them out. It goes from 1 5/16 -2 5/16. It skips a few sizes above 2". I thought it was cool and I had to have it.

A friend of mine- Jerry Pochey told me years ago that he invented them and had a set on his mantle.  He was a Brewster rep in Burma when the Japs came and when I knew him he was a McDonnell rep  He is gone now.  Chuck Garrett
