Title: swap meet goodies
Post by: stanley62 on July 24, 2016, 02:02:12 PM

Here are goodies from the swap meet today.

Proto socket tray
11" Keystone No 81
7" Indian Monkey wrench
3/4" drive Lowell Corp ratchet
3/4" drive 6" Cornwell extension

I think I already have a couple Indian wrenches of this type, but for $3 dollars, I decided I needed another.

Aren't those 3/4 pieces a little overkill for watch repair?

Maybe he's branching out into town square clock repair:

Last time I saw one of those 7" Indian script logo wrenches, the antique mall wanted $82 for it.
I bet someone paid that sum.
Consider yourself fortunate. 
BTW, I have 3 different Ford pliers; paid no more than $.50 each.  ;-)

The Indian wrench has gotten good prices in the past. Some sold recently on Ebay at $40-$55.
