Todays mail goodies!
« on: March 27, 2015, 09:24:35 PM »
Two EASCO rats - a paintbrush handle in 1/2", and a RHFT in 3/8" A vintage Bonney 3/8" breaker and a #2 phillips Bell System driver. All great!

The rats will go into sets I'm putting together.

I've never seen a breaker like that before. It looks good for getting into tight places.  I did make a breaker by welding a 3/8" drive into a 3/8" wrench handle.  It comes in handy every once in a while.

Me neither. When Heel emailed me about a Bonney T2 wrench I thought he was making a reference to the Arnie film!
But AA has a listing. And it definitely looks like it will be useful in a tight corner. Looks like Bonney amde a 1/2" drive version as well.
It has the remnants of the paper logo on the handle. From all the evidence, it looks like a 1932 manufacture date.

Very neat ratchets. They almost look the craftsman full polish professional series.
And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

lol I was thinking of getting a set of the professionals. But I already had the two smaller EASCO's, and just hoped I'd find the 1/2"er. So, I'm set!
