Howdy Y'all! I have a few Questions about a few old tools I was hoping someone might be able to help me Identify the year & possibly model #'s. Oh & if they are worth anything. 1st is a older Snap~On tool box .I could have sworn that I found a ID plate before I bought it but I am getting older & my CRS must be getting worse. I did some horse trading for it to use in my buddies shop ,but he sold his shop. It has the weirdest wheels I've ever seen. 2nd is a 3/8th" & a 1/2" Snap~On breaker bars with off set drives & double as a extension the 3/8th" I have had for over 25 years & the 1/2 I just acquired. 3rd is a old drill I saved from the metal recyclers pile. 4th .... Well....DAMIFIANO it says Stanley on it but IDUNNO, I have no freakin clue. Well thank You for your time & I hope to end the mystery's. I look foward to the reply's SlowRide66
If you do a search on here for Snap on or old tools..not sure which, there is a link to a site that decodes the little hallmarks on Snap on tools, which have a different mark for each year. Of course they are worth something..they are Snap on tools..if nothing else you could use them in your garage. alot of guys dont have a good breaker bar, They use a ratchet and pipe or a torque wrench..
desertratrodder, I did a Google search & on the HAMB until my fingers fell off { a few hour}. I even went out to the tool box & looked all over again to some ID. I was not being lazy. That is why I posted I figured it was time for some help, Maybe someone would be familiar with one of the Items . Like refyred, I still have a old saw somewhere I should give it a try , Thank You 1 down 3 to go {for now I think I have a few more that are mysteries} SR66
Sorry I ***umed you didn't search here. I guess you did not find it, here check this out..http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14884
Everything Snap-on is worth a couple a bucks even if just as a novelty item. Go to collectingsnapon.com and you can look up your tools and the box.
Hey ! No Biggie. Sometimes I can get lost goggling stuff & it might take days to remember what I started with. I have to write it down keep it next to the puter & there is always a search I meant to do right after I shut it down. HA HA no I know where "WINGDINGS " came from. I always thought some of my Snap~ON dealers were a bit dingy to start with . That chart is cool . I think Craftsman has a similar one. Learn something new every day. Thanks SR66
Found the tool Box. It & I are almost the same age. Now I will have to dig out my Grand Pa's "******* Set" & see what those old sockets have to say for them selves. A few Questions & now I have more Questions OH BoyE. <TABLE border=1 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=578><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=bottom width=200 noWrap> </TD><TD vAlign=bottom width=101 noWrap>KRA-396 </TD><TD vAlign=bottom width=74 noWrap>1953 - 1967 </TD><TD vAlign=bottom width=203 noWrap>Catalog Z 1965 p9 </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE> SR66
What do you all think should I restore the old box? Someone did some half *** spray bombing & its flaking off. Are there any more sites like that Snap~On one you have available? Thanks SR66

Wow! Haven't heard that word in a while...kerf is the "dish" put into a big circle blade to keep it from wobbling, or so I was told. The pitch of the teeth is usually called "set", at least in my world, LOL. Different areas used different terms I suppose..
