Hi Bonneyman. Those wrenches are sweet. And I agree with you about the extra strength of DBE's. I do have some Bonney's, purchased at SK's urging and finding them at swap meets. The wrenches are by far the best feeling in my hands. And this comes from a Proto fanboy. speaking of Proto, Hey, how about a thread showing your outstanding collection of vintage Proto screwdrivers? I'll post my examples as well.

I need to go take a cold shower after seeing those metric dbe's  :-\

Here are some recent Bonney finds.

What is the BS100? it is marked patent pending, it's the odd-shaped bar with rubber grip.

Next, an RF53 double line wrench with Cam-Loc, oops mean Loc-Rite.

E-10 stamped steel...looks new. Edit: 7/16"×3/8"

"DE1 for Delco" marked wrench. Is older, has B-shield on opposite side.

Dave, I have the same BS100, tho mine is sporting a red grip.

On our old site, before the crash, I had posted it. I think we all came up with a "bearing seal" tool. Thus the BS part designation. Perhaps used to pry out a seal in a typical drum brake application, and that would explain the curvature to wedge over the lip of the drum.  Seems it might work better for deeper set seals, perhaps even rear axle seals on 3/4T trucks.

Any day you find a Loc-Rite wrench is a good day! ;D

Here is a 1/4” drive set I found at an estate sale. I traded it to my buddy Jason, who is really into Bonney.

Nice set of tools!

Though I always hated those cheesey plastic totes.

At least this one gives you a little flexibility most have spots for everything and you can't add anything.

Just don't drop it full though, or the coat hanger wire hinges will break.

Sadly its not a 3/4 just a long 1/2er. I posted a 3/4 over in the big stuff thread a while back.may have to bring a pic over here too.

And I found a pic of this. ;D

Nice 50's vintage rat and the stud remover is cool, tool. Wouldn't mind getting one of those in NOS shape for less than an arm and a leg! 

Because then I'd be an amputee stud.  :D

Ooops! really looked like a 3/4 to me.

Is the tape made by Barlow?

Me too. That ratchet  is just fine and as rare as a one legged man winning an ass kicking contest.
