WW X2270

[HeelSpur]

This one tickled me to find, its the first one I've seen in the wild.
Probably a million of them  out there but this one called my name.

Interesting coincidence, I've been after Walden tools for several years and this is one I've been missing. I found one on Ebay recently and just opened the box 2 days ago. I paid $6.99 which, when you add on shipping was a little high , but, now I have one.

Mine was 5 bux and he wouldn't come down to 3 even after I told him I was tighter than hell.

[gibsontool]

Damn. I'm jealous.

I need to try that statement!

Maybe I'm a bit groggy this morning, but I just can't figure out how this tool works. What's it used for, and how do you use it?

I do believe it is a lug wrench, at least that's what I've seen in past search's.

[turnnut]

it's a wheel nut wrench, like a 4 socket cross wrench, only that it has 2 sockets.

sockets could be any combination of 2 of the follwing sizes used in the early 1920's;
you had lug nuts & demountable rim holding nuts. such as used on the old wood rims.

5/8"    11/16"    3/4"    13/16"     7/8"

I have seen old ads for this particular wrench, and have been trying to find those ads
to pinpoint the year of manufacture.

 

[FAISAL]

beautiful ,nice find     

[turnnut]

Heelspur,  is that 11/16"  &  7/8"  ?

[HeelSpur]

Heelspur,  is that 11/16"  &  7/8"  ?

yes it is.

[gibsontool]

I was just looking on Ebay and found I paid $12.99 not $6.99 as I had said earlier. So now I'm really jealous.
 Mine is also 11/16" x 7/8"

[eddie hudson]

All X 2270 are 11/16 x 7/8. Someone here won a WW catalog a few years ago, I think it was Fins. He would be able to tell you what it was used for and what other sizes were available. Unfortunately I don't think he posts here anymore.

If you really want to get jealous, I got mine last year for $1.

[gibsontool]

Eddie. I really wish you hadn't told me that, but whatever, unfortunately for me it probably will not be the last time I'll pay too much for a interesting tool. I tend to let common sense and good judgement fall by the wayside when I find something I like. I hate it when that happens.
