If i were a tool inventor i would like my name on this drain plug wrench. it has 7 different sized openings ,A lot of multiple sized wrenches out there but this one has a handle that gives you leverage on all sizes.Some tools really catch my attention and this is one. but then again I like most tools  bob w.

It is a nice straightforward design, and it's pretty. New Britain and KenTool both had versions of that tool also, I suspect it was popular more because it is drop forged and you could smack it with a hammer to get out stubborn drain plugs and save your expensive wrenches tho ; P

Remember when you could get a flat wrench on your cars drain plug? Remember when you could *find* your car's drain plug?

remember when lube oil and filter was 12 dollars,  remember chassis lube,  bob w.

Anyone remember when changing your own oil was significantly cheaper than taking it to a shop?

when I got out of the service in 1952 I went to work in a pontiac dealership. I remember a lot of dealer services that were considered high in price but now looking back they were cheap   lol   bob w.

I picked up a Herbrand 194 for $1 over the weekend at a pawn shop.  I bought it to sell but have since decided I'll just keep the wrench - I like it.
