I stopped by the pawn this morning to conduct my regular raid. THIS is part of what I got while I was there. I'll post some of the tools in a while.

Schick Products. Inc, Belmont, CA, 60's-70's ...new one for me too, never heard of them before....neat
They apparently also made (yet another) quick adjust alumnium pipe wrench....
I wonder if Armstrong made the bolt cutters or contracted them to HKP? hmm
-
Another first for me, and probably with good reason now that I've researched it. A 5/8" socket 1/2" drive with "CA047020" and "USA" markings, with a logo I'd not seen.
(http://i1154.photobucket.com/albums/p534/alphinde/846471584_photobucket_122158_.jpg)
Made by S.F. Industrial, Inc out of Roswell, GA. ?????????????????? Apparently a tooling company with focus on aerospace and industry. It started operations in 2001.
-
They are a GSA supply company, they source things and sell them to the government....(and do all the annoying paperwork)
The CP logo is probably Chicago Phenumatic (Impact socket) renumbered for the government....
(Listed on their vender source list) http://www.sfindustrialinc.com/products.asp
Cost the Gov $6.55 ;P
Nice to see we can still at least make impact sockets in good ole US of A anyhow :)
-
Nice addition to the bmw, hope the other side is not matching? Hope you got his name. For a guy that has several hundred pipe wrenches, you come out with a pipe wrench, !!! I agree with the CP logo, and that could well be a government stock number. That blue-blue grass driver is a no.1 or no.2 clutch drive, handy if you tie into an early 50s chevrolet, or John Deere. The only thing i got to day was plenty dirty in the shop, and maybe some heat rash, but we won't go there!

One side was enough. His name didn't much matter, he didn't have a DL or insurance. I'll have fun with that.
I couldn't pass that pipe wrench up - hadn't seen one before, didn't know anything of it, and in the context of the larger buy was not a real big drop in the bucket.
What exactly would one do with a clutch drive?
-
>What exactly would one do with a clutch drive?
It fits a funny looking screw with a slot that looks just like the end of the driver...
They were among the first screws designed to be put in by machines...
> didn't have a DL or insurance
Ohhh...free car ;P
Probably has no money either :(
-

What is HKP? Those cutters came in the door as I was going out......and he threw them in for free. They need new jaws if they're to be used, but will likely hang on a wall. I don't find myself doing a lot of bolt cutting. I keep a cutting torch with 200' on the truck.
-
Bummer about the sideswipe on your car there O.R. Hope you get it sorted somehow.
I like that Schick wrench too! It's neat how they dovetailed the steel jaw inserts into the aluminum base metal.

HK Porter made bolt cutters forever.
Often they say HKP in the web of the handle
Still make them and they are very nice, if a bit pricey
-
I am guessing those clutch drive screws came out in about 1949? The sheet metal on John Deere tractors, and the front clip sheet metal on Chevrolets of that time frame are held together by those. Or were, as guys got frustrated they got removed, tossed, and replaced with hex head hardware. I remember I needed a no.2 to get the radio out of the 50 Chevy car. Had to wait 5 days for the NAPA dealer to get one in.

Agreed! I'd seen a vise (older Columbian) that deployed that technique, but not a pipe wrench before this.

Thatll be 400....BMW... I mean 600 dollars to repair, wish we lived closer I could help you out, I like the bolt cutters by the way.
-
The new jaws for those styled cutters are like $30 for the pair, soI'm waiting until I get more pocket money for replacements for my cutter. Forget the brand name of it though. Great haul my man....

You can't have too many nut-drivers from VACO and Xcelite.
And I feel your pain with the car damage. I went into a bike shop, and some lady comes in and asks if I drive the white van. Her daughter was driving and scrapped the back-end while backing out of the space next to me. Got her insurance and had it fixed ($500) on her tab, but things did get a little spatty.
Hopefully the $$$ won't be too bad for yours.

Neat, looks like they used the same dovetailed-steel-jaw-insert method on those as they did with OilyRascal's pipe wrench.

John k & others interested,
I'm not sure exactly when clutch head fasteners and drivers 1st came out, but I do know they were on the GM & Chevrolet trucks as early as 1947. GM also used these fasteners on their cars in the 1950's but eventually abandonded them (perhaps in 1960 and thereafter). These fasteners, on GM vehicles were generally used under the hood and in the interiors; regular hex fasteners were generally used on the drive train and chassis. Clutch head fasteners may have been one of the earlier tamper-resistant fasteners.

Welcome to Tooltalk. As you've probably already seen, I'm in search of the 3/4" drive plug myself. I've had no luck in my search so far....that is, short of a complete ratchet.
