I recently sold my Hotchkiss wrench to the Sharon CT Historical Society. I think they might unveil it today at their 275th Bday Celebration. Attached are a few pics.

Glad to see it found a good home. As you know the inventor had an interesting life.

i was curious as to how they found you/it?

I posted it on the bay and they contacted me. They had been searching for one for @20 years, and were real excited. It's so cool that one of my finds now resides in a small museum to be shared with others.
