Title: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: m_fumich on September 13, 2011, 03:23:54 PM: I'm looking for several styles of Indestro made wrench's. All DOE or DBE. No combo's. They don't have to say Indestro. I need several unbranded Select Steel wrench's too.

There are 3 exceptions.

I need a 5/8 and 1" Select Steel combo. Cannot say Indestro anywhere on the wrench.

On the other wrench's, no Duro or Indestro Super.

Show me what you've got.

Post by: m_fumich on September 13, 2011, 05:04:39 PM: I thought the 720 was 5/16 - 11/32.

I'll check my list when I get home or when I can get my son to send me my updated spreadsheet.

Post by: m_fumich on September 13, 2011, 07:52:03 PM: The one on the left, does it only say "Forged in U.S.A." on the flip side? Are you selling any of those?
Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: kxxr on September 13, 2011, 08:42:28 PM: "Forged U.S.A."
I would sell or trade, sure.
Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: m_fumich on September 13, 2011, 09:31:21 PM: I need to know sizes and all markings to determine which ones I need.

Post by: keykeeper on September 13, 2011, 09:36:13 PM: I have some Select Steel combo wrenches I would sell as a lot.... I think I have a 7/8, 1, 1-1/16 and 1-1/8. I know there are 4 of them. I'll have to check my stash of wrenches.

Yep, found 'em. The biggest is about 13-1/2 inches long.

I'll take a shot of both sides this afternoon. I'll try to preserve more detail in the photo resizing process.

Post by: m_fumich on September 14, 2011, 09:15:48 AM: I'm still waiting for my list to be sent to me. My son took my wireless card out of my system at home and now he's having some sort of problem. I'm not sure if it's related to that or not.

Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: m_fumich on September 14, 2011, 08:58:41 PM: Kxxr, I'm having to look at there pictures with my phone. I can see the combo wrench. Could you take another picture of the DOE wrench's without the metric ones. I'm only after SAE wrench's.
Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: kxxr on September 15, 2011, 05:59:21 AM: I know it's tough to see on a phone. You might get to a computer before I get to the garage again. If not, let me know. But, for now, if you count the 'dart panel' "Streamline" design wrenches down from the top, only numbers 4 and 5 are metric. They are 15mm and 11mm.
Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: m_fumich on September 15, 2011, 12:07:17 PM: Which ones are Indestro Super?
Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: kxxr on September 15, 2011, 01:25:24 PM: The 6 on the right, positioned almost vertical, are Supers.
Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: fliffy42 on September 15, 2011, 06:28:14 PM: pretty sure I have a box of those kicking around. I will do some looking this weekend.
Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: m_fumich on September 16, 2011, 05:06:52 PM: Kxxr, looking at these 5, one is a metric. The next to the metric has Indestro on one end and P720 on the other. Of the other 3, do they have anything on either end?
Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: kxxr on September 16, 2011, 06:28:45 PM: Nothing on those three. And, there is one other that, like them, does not have "Indestro" on it.

Cliff, can you tell me what all the markings are? I can't see them very well on my phone. What are the sizes and what's on each side?

Post by: m_fumich on October 09, 2011, 04:04:03 PM: Cliff, pm sent about those wrench's.

Kxxr, I'll get with you late about your wrench's. The ones that only say Forged USA are the last ones I'm after. Indestro is first, then the Select Steel. Forged is last.
Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's

anything smaller than 1/2 with the #911 or less
anything larger than 11/16 with the #914 or higher

Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: m_fumich on December 30, 2011, 01:07:54 PM: Does that 5/16 - 3/8 DOE have the number 1721 on the head?

Yes... 1721.
Title: Re: Indestro made wrench's
Post by: m_fumich on December 30, 2011, 05:13:18 PM: OK, gotta have that one. None of the others are a match though. That box makes me tingly in my no-no parts but I'll have to pass on that. I've got enough stuff that's just for looking at.

How much for the one wrench?

If you're still interested in that Proto yellow handled prybar, I'll throw in the 1721, n/c.
