yard sale surprise

[RedVise]

Came across a couple of blow torches today, unusual for Florida, I think. So, I grabbed them!
Also picked up two planes, one a small no name stamped plane, I like the very basic design.
The other was  a nice Wards Powr Kraft plane, have not seen the plastic/baclite handles before.

I posted up one of those plastic handle Wards type planes a while back, I think before the crash of "ott eleven".

They are nicely made, but seem to not bring as much interest as the wooden handled planes.

Hi Brian,
The first two torches look like Craftmans by the handles, the one with the pistol grip that has two controls does not appear in the Craftmans catalogs. Can you find any other markings?

The Clayton and Lambert  should have a number stamped on the top of the handle. 158A or 160A perhaps?

[RedVise]

Batz, the pistol grip is marked Model 54, the smaller one in the first photo has BO cast into the burner.
The C&L is a 600A.

I'm interested in the pistol grip torch Brian as I can't find one with a burner like that, I'll love a few more photos. Have sent you a PM.

Batz, did not see a PM, sent you one.
