My newest addition to the 6 inch & under club
« on: February 14, 2016, 12:42:28 PM »
Earlier in the month, at the M-WTCA meet in Madison, GA, I picked up a Bullard no. 1 quick adjust pipe wrench.  While researching prices I ran across a no. 0 on etsy.  It looked decent and the price was right so I bought it.  I haven't had real good luck buying wrenches online but in this instance all was good.

I don't know how common these are but they are the first two that I have seen.  I have since looked at AA and found that Bullard was out of business by 1909, which probably explains the relative rarity.

The no.0 is only 5 1/2 in. long, while the no. 1 is considerably longer.  I have it stuck in one of my banana boxes to go to Flywheelers so can't measure it.

 The No 0 seems to be the most scarce. I have one but the spring was mangled. Replaced with spring from a ballpoint pen which works but looks a little recent. Also have a No1,two No2's and a No 3. I kinda like them.

It actually seems like a good design. I have yet to see a no. 2 or 3.

That's a cute little bugger all right. Nice find!
