Title: Fleet Pipe Wrench... smallish
Post by: lauver on March 30, 2012, 06:58:58 PM

Just for you adjustable 6-and-under fans,

A Fleet 4106 6" steel pipe wrench, ca. 1947 - 1960's:

Small little bugger, but I dig it. Sometimes smaller is mo' better.

Found this a couple of years ago at a flea market for pocket change.  I've really come to appreciate it and enjoy using it on small stock.

I have one of those, and have found it useful several times.
