Ok, I have been looking for a small tool box I saw on the Gazette, possibly a small Wards box, and then I find this, the style is right, but not the look!

Enjoy !

That is a drag that the link didn't work.
 I --want-- one of the brass keychain wrenches! I have seen a lot keychain wrenches and they are usually always dreck.
 But with solid brass you could get out the files and scrapers and what not, carve it some, and make a tool out of it! 

   The necklace couldn't look elegant no matter what you did.  To my eye anyway. There is already too little metal to work with if you wanted shapely tools.


 You could always repaint the box Brian. heeheheheheheeh
   If I see one cheap though, I'll remember.
    yours Scott

Thanks Scott, I have snagged a pic from GJ  and will post in the Wanted section. It's one of those "wants" and truly not a "need".     Well, kinda sorta need...
