    Like the chisels, I was lucky enough to find a set of Marple recently, (not Vintage) nice haul.

    It's always nice to fine Bonney tools. That New Britain ratchet will clean up nicely if you take the time to polish it. I picked up a New Britain made Champion Plug Master ratchet that was all rusted and seized at a flea market. I got it freed up and it actually cleaned up quite nicely. I love the old New Britain made tools.

    • @thenkgarage
      @thenkgarage  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It cleaned up ok, the ratchet mechanism itself works excellent!

    Try to get some clean motor oil in that craftsman ratchet. It sometimes breaks free some of that build up without tearing it down. The oil will push its way back out with some gunk in it. Just keep rotating it and adding oil.

      Thanks for the tip!

    The Bell System pliers from Sweden are cool

    • @thenkgarage

      Definitely a nice find!

  • @robear6361
    @robear6361 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hey guys, great finds!
    That all steel Craftsman chisel is a framing chisel. Think rough carpentry vs furniture making. Always enjoy your content!

  • @MarzNet256
    @MarzNet256 หลายเดือนก่อน

    That is a Craftsman all steel wood chisel and those Kraeuter's are 6" spring loaded needle nose pliers with end nippers (very cool). The older tools are often much higher quality than the equivalent new stuff.

    • @thenkgarage
      @thenkgarage  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You’re right, it’s amazing the quality in tools from back then!

    Nice haul again, I like the Marple wood chisel

    • @thenkgarage
      @thenkgarage  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don’t see them often but when I do I gotta grab them!

    Another cool tool haul. I like that Bonnie PF54 hammer.

    • @thenkgarage
      @thenkgarage  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks! It is pretty cool!

    Be on the lookout for Tonka Toys, especially sets from the fifties, all metal of course, not the silly looking plastic ones from today.

    • @thenkgarage
      @thenkgarage  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Always on the lookout for those!

    Kurt! Still waiting to get my hands on some Nk Garage T shirts! Hope you had good holidays and a great new year!

      Thanks! We launched them on Mercari and the link is in the latest “whats sold” video. I may change that over to ebay or another platform soon because I’m not that happy with their platform

    Cee-Tee were the best pair of farmer pliers ever made.

    • @thenkgarage
      @thenkgarage  หลายเดือนก่อน

      They are definitely heavy duty

  • @unwired1281
    @unwired1281 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    It’s a shame they have gone to etching their branding that disappears. Klein markings disappear in about a month.

    • @thenkgarage
      @thenkgarage  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yea It must be cheaper to manufacture that way but it doesnt last

    Terrible filming at the beginning. Better half way through.

      The Bonney soft face hammer looks like it is the universal size replaceable soft faces. Nupla may be the manufacturer. I have had Nupla, Craftsman, Proto, Bluepoint, and I think, others with this version of faces. I bought one NIB old stock about 6 weeks ago. That had about 5 or 6 different faces. I gave it away to a grandson, and I can't recall what it was branded. Some of that style Nupla was dead blow. The extremely thin fiber glass handle reminds me of my first Nupla dead blow. It is very thin, too thin. I purchased mine around 1982, and
      I snapped the handle at the head pretty quickly. I drilled out the broken handle and epoxied it in now shorter. It was always unbalanced after that, so I went the Snap-On deadblow route after that.
      The end nippers that don't close are probably tile cutters. When mosaic ceramic tile was popular, the nippers had carbide jaws and didn't fully fully close. The small tiles would snap or crack unter the cutter pressure without having to fully close. I have a different brand, but I haven't used mine since the late 1970's.
