Found a Tootsie roll ratchet
« on: December 02, 2019, 04:04:29 PM »
Powrkraft 3/8". Frozen up pretty good, took some serious scrubbing with acetone to get the solid black gunk out of it. But it works fine now.
Single see-saw pawl design, quite similar to the S-K roundheads. But overall I think this Wright clone is shorter and more compact.

That's because too many of the techs have no idea who Wright is.

That said, I had one of the 3/8's in a 1/4 body Wright ratchets, and I hated it. Sold that off quick. Glad you like this one George.

Great find, I love WRIGHT tools.
I don't have many right now and can't afford much of their stuff new, but the little 2426 1/4" ratchet I could and absolutely love it.
Always lookin' to learn
