Title: Springtime Tool hunt
Post by: RedVise on April 12, 2014, 04:36:53 PM
Nice day to out looking for tools

Found a Whitney metal punch no.5 Jr.
No labels but found the same thing on ebay.
There's a pair of Channelocks, metal hammer, Snap-on FV70L rat,
old screwdriver with a different type of ferrule,
2 perfect handle drivers and an advertising ice pick.
Also picked up a hip roof tool box, fairly good shape with tray.
Logo looks like BRAZIL TOOLS Chicago Il.

No. 5 punches are nice. Especially in the metal totes.

I paid $4 for my (spare) set last year.

The state of that ice pick is...  rusty !  Sorry, had to do it !

Here's what is says:  PITTSBURG ICE CO., SAVE IT WITH ICE, OFFICE ROUP & P.R.R., HILAND 1005 - EAST 105

Actually it is rusty and needs cleaning so it can go like this one did.
