Title: Who made it?
Post by: t.e.hutton@comcast.net on May 01, 2011, 07:51:01 PM

I picked several of these sockets up in a recent estate sale as well as a matching 1/2 inch drive wrench. No manufacturer's marks that I can tell. Any ideas? The ratchet was stuck but was easily freed with some brake cleaner and some new grease.

Thanks

Appears to be Indestro/Duro type. Check Alloy Artifacts on google, and you will see a copy.

Thanks, gents. I appreciate the thoughts and the references. Now, i just need an old vehicle so I can use this new collection of standard-size tools. Somehow, I think that will cause more stir around my house than the rusty tool box I brought home did. :)
