Title: ESTATE SALE FINDS for Friday
Post by: Ken W. on February 28, 2014, 06:35:42 PM

I found these adjustable wrenches and other tools at an estate sales. The Williams AP-8A is made in Sweden. Never saw one of these before.  The Craftsman 8" in yellow is a circle Y , The smaller Craftsman is marked A.O over A . The MAC tie rod tool is marked TRW-300. The Palm ratchet is a Palm-Grip from Kipton Industries. The little tie rod separator is a Mac CP-5. I think that might be for transmission linkages as it's too small to take off the tie rod on my lawn tractor.And I got a Perfect handle screwdriver. I can't be sure if there is something stamped on it or just scratches. I'll have to polish it up a bit. I thought it was some neat stuff.

Finding stuff like that at an estate sale would be darn nice.   The Williams adjustable is very interesting, never seen one shaped like that.   Always a nice thing to find a PH screwdriver.

Who made the palm ratchet?
 I like the tie rod tool. Looks handy to me. Tie rods can be a pain

 The palm ratchet is made by Palm - Grip from Kipton Industries.  The tie rod tool is very tiny. Too small even for imports.

That Williams has a BAHCO look to it.
