Back to the scrap yard!
« on: September 10, 2016, 03:15:53 PM »
My continuing adventures in the $1 per pound scrap metal pile at my local recycling center.
Penens 1661 1/2 drive ratchet
Herbrand 634
Kraeuter A1820
Fairmount
Indestro set wrench
Mystery (Made in USA) set wrench
and...
A Walden Worcester Spintite #3412 3/8 nut driver.

Everything works perfectly, no damage aside from a little surface rust, the Penens feels better then my 10 year old Snap-On! And the wood handle on the nut driver is perfect. Not bad for $3

And it was all turned in for scrap.

 there are junk yards around here, but due to the cost of liability insurance, the yards are off limits to the public.

I have the little brother to your Penens.  The 3/8" No. 1261.
You did good!
