retired Mechanic from Hawaii with lots of old tools, this site looks interesting, just figuring out how it works now, will try the Help.

Hi from Wisconsin, OLDTOOLS.  Anyone with a big monkey wrench like that will fit right in.

handle got a little burnt, took the tape off & photo
only marking is a diamond stamp with letters. see attached.

By the way, this is a great site, having lots of fun drooling over some tools.

thank you, should I replace the wood? or keep it original? anyone interested?
prefer someone in Honolulu HI. to view, handle, evaluate condition, etc. any suggestions?

still looking through my stash, lots of very old power tools, wood planes, hand drills, push drill/drivers, etc..

what is a "BUDD 34379' used for? 1 1/2" socket W/ 3/4"dr. ~20" long.
