Found a spud wrench (yes I'm a noob). Anyhow, it may be late model but, then again, not.
I can't find squat on Alloy Artifacts nor here and, I'm so inexperienced, I don't
know where to search beyond that.
BTW---once I tell you about the thing, I'm grown-up enough to use the shame-faced smilie :)
...if I could find the button for it :)
Tool is marked with:
5449-14 PROTO ®
U.S.A. PROFFESSIONAL
I can't tell if it's been not-very-well painted with silver paint
or was chromed at one time and has that scrunchy chrome finish we all know & love..
BTW---this is going into my tool box and will be used... probably hard.
She's been in a rust-kill bath plus some abuse from me to make it shiney.
I do promise to never strike it's rachet head with a hammer to use the spud end...geeze, no!
I appreciate any feedback on the bugger. :) Thanks, ET
Opps---edit: I'm Ellen :)
Very nice rat with spud tale..
Your question is in the right place, Ellen.
The spud ratchet was perhaps chrome moly rather than chrome plated.
Id be all over that ratchet, I like it
I have called this a "scaffolding" wrench.
Line up the holes, put in bolt,,,,add nut,,,,, tighten.
Yeah, I've seen them called spud ratchets, scaffold ratchets and even construction ratchets...
It was chromed.

+1, looks to be a typical satin chrome finish. I've seen these Proto spud ratchets in black oxide too.
