A small haul
« on: July 06, 2020, 05:26:44 PM »
Pickens have been really small here so this made me happy.
Is the need enough? Or does the want suffice?

I have one of those dividers. Don't use it a lot but it does come in quite handy.

like the short wrenches, they can be real handy.  I always called them engineer wrenches, but not sure if that is correct.

I dont know what they're called either but they are great with hydraulic work. I pick up every one I find.

Not sure whether it's correct or not but in general I call a single ended open an engineers wrench. Except when they have a short handle like those and then I call them waterpump wrenches or service wrenches.

Of course sometimes one thing has different names: Some folks call it a sling blade, I call it a Kaiser blade.
