T in a circle = Oswego tool co.
« on: March 31, 2018, 08:14:33 AM »
Some time ago we discussed T in a circle and agreed it was Oswego Tool Co.  I could not show these wrenches then as I was moving, but here is my set of Oswego offset crescent-type wrenches sizes 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14.  Second picture are a couple of pipe jaw from Oswego.

The alligator I showed here is the only Oswego I have ever seen.

The "group of five" photo is not clear -- are these the ones where when you slide the jaw all the way out, the adjusting "worm" has trunnion pins, and will lift out of the frame?

Yes Stan, these are the ones where you can drop the jaw out and remove the worm.  First time I did that I thought something was not correct.
