Estate Sale Buy - PI Day, 3/14/2025
« on: March 14, 2025, 09:35:42 PM »
Friday's estate sale buy.  Four packs of coping.blades in assorted TPI.  Champion Plugmaster II 3/8 ratchet.  Crescent L-28 thin nose pliers, Plomballoy 10-inch adjustable wrench, Lufkin X686 round tape measure. S-K and Snap-On sockets, Dunlap stubby screwdriver, Utility ratcheting screwdriver, and a General No. 301 pocket depth gage.   I've been looking for a Plombaloy adjustable wrench for a long time.  To me, it is one of those iconic marketing names that is synonymous with the Plomb tool line. All for $8.

I like the pliers.  It looks like someone made them into spring hose clamp pliers.  Unless they were made that way.

...spring hose clamp...
Or, as I was raised to call them, Corbin clamps, after, I guess, the first or major maker of the style.
