Fleet Pipe Wrench... smallish
« 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.

Thanks Scott.  If you ever need to borrow it, let me know and I'll run it right over to your place.
