Hinsdale 11M set from 1935-40 Era
« on: July 28, 2018, 02:38:28 PM »
Could not find a Vintage thread for this posting-so hope no one gets ruffled??
Picked this set up today and believe it is complete--In great condition for the age and all parts are OEM--pics suck!   Happy as a pig in the Guvna!!

Looking for USA made ratchets-all sizes-drives and lengths  also S-K SuperKrome wrenches ditto.  Like to trade vs buy run it past me-nothing is cut in stone!

Very nice looking set.  Would this be a 9/32" drive?

Handsome set

I often find  smaller sets with one or two 8 point sockets included.

I guess 4 sided nuts were popular longer than I thought

Yep=sure is 9/32" dr. to boot!  Famine or feast and this time I was really lucky-must have been stored in a controlled climate garage/home and not much usage.   Most of the metal boxes I find are also short pieces and rusted at least on the bottom side!
