Pepsi case w/ wrenches
« on: November 22, 2015, 04:15:20 PM »
Not much going on today but did pick this up, must be 60 or more wrenches in this box, lots of smalls and flat wrenches. 5 or 6 pipe wrenches and these Williams wrenches. The 3 shiny ones are china.

Cool find!

I'd bet that old wooden case would make a great restored tool tote. Clean it up and but a nice handle on it - really make the young guys at the job site scratch their heads.

I spy a Planet Jr. in there. They made about a bazillion types of garden cultivators. Anything made of wood and steel.  In fact, they are still (again?) at it:  http://www.planetjr.net/ . I used to have a Planet Jr. snow sled.

That's a rare 6 pack case from the 60s.

Welcome to the forum.  I'm new here as well.

That is one sweet bunch of tools.  I see the Diamond W crest, big fan...

My father passed ten years ago and I'm just now starting to take a look at his tool collection.  Oddly enough I have found a few with my initials engraved on them. :cheesy:  Dad had a sense of humor after all.

No markings on the 5 hex wrench. A few more.
