Howdy Gary,
I've been fascinated with the Hornet brand since I found that ratchet in the shop. It just seemed like so little was known, and so few existed, and that nobody really knew anything about them other than being a "Williams" product. I've enjoyed both researching and finding the tools. Researching keyword "hornet" is often very challenging.
I did not know Williams owned TRW, and I do NOT need any encouragement in buying more tools. Thanks for sharing, it's certainly useful information to me.
