Wrenches are either open end, box end or combination, so why use DOE?

rusty


Not to mention the farm wrenches, which may be triple open end, quadruple open end.....

'Socket wrench' is more of a problem tho, is it a wrench with a socket forged into the end? or a socket that snaps onto a ratchet.....

I just picked-up this Proto DDOE today.  The other side says VICTOR RT-20. No sizes stamped, but they are 11/16 x 1 x 1-1/8 x x1-1/4.


Gotta love those double Ds
Always looking for what interests me, anything early Dodge Brothers/Graham Brothers trucks ( pre 1932 or so ) and slant six / Super six parts.

I bet its a gas cylinder wrench
1959 Chrysler New Yorker
1982 E150 Ford van

Yup, Victor torch wrench, one of the very few with an obvious maker....

>She just said to me... "You wouldn't know."

The correct response to that is NOT "Are you sure?"
