Aggravation reducer.
 Life would be so much poorer without these. Everyone who owns a wrench should have several.
I never saw one marked Indestro, but Indestro didn't make it.
 This pattern was made the company that made all of this pattern. And I have no idea who.
  But they made them for everyone. So you see different marks on them depending on where you are in the country.

In the '60's , the guys in the ignition shop called them "rimac" or Rimrac"
I think that referred to the original maker?
I have several , saves a lot of cuss words.

Bonney made 'em, and I have several versions of the GENERAL brand. Both standard and phillips. the phillips holder is one nice tool to have!

RIMAC , there is a NOS one on ebay.

RIMAC was Rinck-Mcllwaine, Inc of Hudson,NY.

They turned into a post office box at some point
rimac seems to be listed as owned by Snap-On in the 70's...(?? suspect)

They seem to have been making clutch and valve tools in the 1930's....
