Went back to Tom's Bargain Stop to pick up a pet fence I saw last time.  It was still there.  I bought it for my wife for her rabbits.  She has 11 rabbits!
Found an 18mm S-K socket I needed and 2 other S-K's.  Two Superrenches and a really nice unplated Williams that resembles the Super pattern.  The other wrenches are Barcalos.

Then I stopped at nearby Arcadia Thrift.  They had more tolls than usual.  Got a very nice Superrench, weird very old pliers (unfortunately has some damage), Snap-On Vacuum Grip Battery Pliers - very nice,  Snap-On V-22 valve adjuster tool, and a Ridgid strap wrench.

Thanks Lou.  The old broken pliers in second photo - I can't imagine what they were - there was a stamp but it's rusted, the handles are bent, The jaw has a piece snapped off, and the handle had a spring at one time.  When I bought them I knew the handle was bent and the spring broken.
