We used to call those "Model A" wrenches. Must have been one with the car.
Friend of mine in the Air Force was using an "electric pencil" to put his name on his tools.
Sergeant came in and said "whatcha dooin', boy?".
"Putting my name on my tools".
"Oh, so when we find it in the guts of a destroyed jet engine, we know who to give it back to?".
GULP!
Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
Interesting. Thanks for the advice, guys.
"Some say the alien didn't die in the crash. It survived and drank whiskey and played poker with the locals 'til the Texas Rangers caught wind of it and shot it dead."

The good thing about a drill brace is that you have good control over the speed of the drill bit. But what a pain to use! I don't think that this one is particularly valuable.
Here is a link to a quick sample I pulled off line:

I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
Eatthis The plastic on the brace tells me this is not as old as the seller wants you to think it is. Still a nice tool...... new I would expect to pay about $150 to $200 american dollars. But thats a retail price. you could probably find one cheeper.
Dont worry about the thumbprint, paint it Rust , and call it "Battle Damage"
do you think this is worth much?

Actually, those are monkey wrenches, pipe wrenches are similiar but have gripping serrations and are self tightening. They are easy to get confused. Monkey wrenches, or gas grips, are not in popular use anymore and have been replaced by adjustable wrenches (spanner).
Monkey wrench (gas grips)
Pipe wrench (Stillson wrench)
Adjustable wrench (shifting spanner)
I am only posting this because during my shipyard apprenticeship, umpteen million years ago, correct identification of tools and their components was drummed into our heads and woe to the lowly apprentice who didn't call a tool by its correct name. You were as likely as not to get hit on the helmet with the tool you had offended. It gave "getting it drummed into your head" a whole new perspective.
dirk, just in case you don't know what those are as they are pipe wrenches. leave as is so don't clean them up.

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.
littletimmy DO NOT RESTORE THEM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are worth more in their natural state! Sell them on E-bay. Put a minimum bid of $100 each on them. You can thank me by mailing me any crappy kit you want as long as its a 1/144 or larger.

A good friend of mine passed away four years ago, and now his parents are doing sort of a physical and spiritual house cleaning, if you know what I mean. I inherited a bunch of tools, most of which are newer, but there were these two in the bunch as well:

I'd like to restore them to their former glory, but I'm not quite sure how. I could use a solvent to get the metal clean pretty easily, but how would you get all the grease n dirt out of the wood so you could restore the wooden handles?
I'm thinking of selling them on Ebay too, but not decided yet. I wonder if they're even worth anything. Anyone know?
