Title: Sockets & things
Post by: HeelSpur on July 30, 2012, 04:51:54 PM
Picked this up at an antique store today, its pretty mixed up but alot are the same brand but with no name on the size.

Cleaned this off a little and couldn't make out what it says,
might have to remove the paint.

I believe these are the same, but notice the top one on the next 2 pics.
And the bottom one that looks like a screwdriver head or finger grip.

These are all different brands.

If you see anything you might be interested in just let me know,
I'm not really in to sockets but will use them to barter.

Does the screwdriver tip fit on the blue handle?

This is a hammer impact.

If some of those sockets match the Hinsdale Rat, then I'd be interested in some swapping....  BTW, I love Heinz 57 loads!!!

Just found this and the sockets seem to be the same design.

I think the sockets match the ratchet. Just a guess but it sure seems damn likely.
Cool that it is square drive. Many were hex.
Don't lose the drive plug! Those can be harder to get than ratchets.
 
The screwdriver thing is a drag link socket. Steering parts
