Heres one for y'all. Local guy made these years ago. now he's sold it to another company. not many of the originals around.



The second picture is how it fits in your hand for usage.

I use these to open pecans after they been cracked. Not really a mechanics tool but We've been in the pecan season down here and it been getting a lot of usage. kinda cool that a local guy came up with the idea and still makes a similar tool. the blue handle gizmo in the second pic is the newer edition. I kinda fond of the older one myself.


Second pic is the tools of destruction I use for pecans. ;D

If you want to look at an old Elroy and guess the application. Elroy offer for your reviewing pleasure, the Lubroclamp shown :steeringwheel:. Elroy uses it to grease 90 degree, die grinder gear boxes. What was the original greasing application ?

Don't recognize it off the bat either. Great idea for greasing those pesky air tool gear housings Elroy.

Always intrigued by the designs the old machines. Had. Working and 1971 Allis Chalmers forklift.bbrakes setup is rather unique. While I like that companies designed and engineered things to be completely their own, sometimes it's a pain to work on

Darn, I knew the clamp was for greasing leaf springs, had one that I researched and said it was for Model T's

Since no one else guessed on the other 2 tools pictured, one is a  pneumatic right angle die grinder and a mandrel for 2 inch Roloc discs :))
