July 19, 20197 yr Popular Post comment_196424 Too hot to do much....taking a break. Had to go for a CT Scan of the right ear....hit a few sales between there and home....spent $9, counting an item for the Boss... L-R: Defiance screwdriver bit, small block plane, 2 Irwin Perfection handled drivers, North Bros. Yankee No. 131A, Handy Andy chisel, Millers Falls No. 6 screwdriver, Craftsman 1/4 stubby, and a pair of vise grips....that was missing a part.. Kind of NEED a bolt? Also a c clamp. Found a bolt for the visegrips... Cleaned the little screwdriver up a bit. Block plane had a broken cap iron....we have a spare.. I think this will do..for one day's pickings? Report

July 20, 20197 yr Author comment_196526 Both of the ones I picked yesterday say IRWIN USA.....may look there, as well? North Bros. Yankee No. 131A is from before 1949 take over by Stanley. It could use a drop of oil,,,about all. Might have a spare tip for it, somewhere... So, now I have a set of 4 Perfection handles....each a different length...but all are for slotted screws. I now have 2 of those Millers Falls #6 screwdrivers...the other one is in the Stanley 45's box. The Craftsman 1/4" stubby is in good shape, still under warrantee... Seems there was a Hardware supplier up in Cleveland, OH. long ago....called Worthington....seems they labeled the Stanley #220 as one of their products, to sell to hardware stores. I have a 20" long "Panel Saw" etched with the Worthington logos, as well. C clamp does have a model number on it..WILTON No. 803.......cleaned up well, too That "Handy Andy" 1/4" chisel....matches one I have in the shop....except it will need a new bevel edge....won't even cut Pizza cheese right now...
