NOTE: We buy and collect many antique, vintage, steampunk, retro, anachronistic, historical, unusual, weird, laboratory and precision tools and equipment in new and very good used conditions, of all types but particularly those useful for electronics and small work. Should you have any such tools and equipment you want to sell, please let us know by email - describe make and model, description, condition, and if possible your price.

SEARCHING FOR ITEMS: Items are enterred in this webpage mostly based on order we obtain them. Please use top-right search box or your Browser Search / Find feature to locate the specific Items of interest or just browse webpage. We listed many Items by more than one name and name variation (e.g. "antique tools", "vintage tools").

Please email us (please don't call as we are often in our labs), use email Subject: "Buy/Sell/Trade Inquiry."

DESCRIPTIONS & IMAGES: Unlike many Online stores, our goal is to always provide you clear and correct item images, and accurate and reasonably complete item descriptions. While we have tried to be 100% accurate in our descriptions and images, please freely let us know of any errors or omissions made herein, for example, by emailing us URLs to relevant datasheets. While images usually help, most of the items we sell are already well known. If any of our descriptions or images are missing, incomplete or inaccurate and this affects your purchase decision, please email us (please don't phone; put "Need Better Info for Item" in email Subject Line) so we can make reasonable corrections. Many of our images of electrical and electronic hardware do not show all of the leads or cabling which the actual items have so that we can provide bigger and clearer images of the body of the items to better show part numbers, labeling, features and cosmetic conditions.

Used and in good condition. Rare Vintage Mercedes Benz tool. Concentric ends. Original use unknown. Stamped on one end is, "1104".

When I first heard the legend Janis Joplin sing, "Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?", I fell in love with both Janis and The Mercedes Benz. Problem is I never got rich enough to buy a Mercedes Benz. I am a tool collector, and so instead I collected a large amount of vintage Mercedes Benz tools over the decades, some sold on this site. If we get good prices for them, we will likely list more of our Mercedes Benz tools; else, we will have to donate the rest of them soon. Great collectible tool, Mercedes Benz tool collectible, or car tool collectible.

RARE PERCENT-OF-TREAD-USE AUTO TIRE GAGE TOOL
SCHRADER USA #5752, STEEL TIRE GAUGE TOOL

Used and in very good condition. Rare Percent-of-Tread-Use Steel Tire Gauge #5752 Auto Tool, made by Schrader USA. The "tongue" at the bottom is moved up and down by sliding the piece on the back, based on the depth of the tire tread. You then read in the front the small range of percentages of tire tread wear. There are 6 gauge windows in the front, which appear to be related to the tread depth of the tire type when it was new. Have you ever argued with somebody about how much tire tread you have used or is left? Go to 10 auto mechanics, and you will likely get at least 4 opinions, often depending on whether or not the automechanic wants to sell you tires. Especially useful if you own several cars, trucks, motorcycles and bicycles. And for keeping track of your tires over their lifetimes, and for when the tires need to be rotated, and for unusual or alarming tire wear patterns. Sure beats using a Lincoln penny to guess the percent of tire tread used.

We do not have its user manual and we are not wheel mechanics, so we can't advise you on how to use it. Can also be used to set, verify or calibrate many other types of depths, thicknesses, lengths, separations and alignments as a depth gauge or length gauge. This sale is for one (1) Schrader tire tool. Also makes a great tool collectible or auto mechanics collectible.

RARE VERTICAL NOTCH + HORIZONTAL NOTCH TOOL

Rare Notched 3" long Toolmaker's Vise/Vice with Vertical Notch (Vertical Groove) and Horizontal Notch (Horizontal Groove). We've collected tools for decades, and this is the first tool maker's vise of this type with any notch - much less both notches! Even without notches, tool maker vises are very useful tools in the machine shop, car repair shop, electronics shop, general shop, and for crafts, jewelry, watches, clocks, model making, gunsmithing, etc. With precision notches, the toolmaker's vise becomes 10+ times more useful. Now, you can firmly hold and work on small screws, pipes, tubes, rods, axles, stems, wires, cables, stock, etc., as well as small spherical and odd-shaped objects. And as a tool collectible or vise collectible, your collection is not complete without this vise. This sale is for one vise.

ANTIQUE KODAK ROTARY STAGING VISE +
KODAK RISER BLOCK TOOLS - BOTH RARE
WORK HOLDING/TOOL HOLDING
Both Very Useful & Great Tool Collectible / Kodak Collectible

Used and in very good condition. Rare Antique Kodak Rotary Staging Vise PLUS Kodak Riser Block Tools. Made in USA by Eastman Kodak Co. At the top of the Kodak Rotary Staging Vise is a rotable fixture that holds tools and work objects. The holding slot is 2" long, 15/16" wide, and 3/8" deep, with a set screw, which you can see rotates just fine (rotable fixture is loosened and tightened by the screw in its center). Great for holding tool maker type vises, many of which are 7/8" wide and fit fine and secure well into this slot (tool maker vise not included). This Kodak assembly is not only a very useful tool system, but it is also an incredible Kodak collectible, tool collectible, vise collectible, movie industry collectible, etc. If you do not have these wonderful Americana devices in your collection, your collection is not complete, and the chances of you finding another pair like this Kodak Vise and Kodak Riser pair is slim to none.

To assemble the two pieces together, you loosen the Kodak Vise's side knob, which loosens an angled piece at its bottom. You then slide the Kodak Staging Vise over the Kodak Riser Block with the angled piece inserted into the angled side of the groove, then once positioned, you manually tighten down the side knob to firmly attach the Kodak Vise to the Kodak Riser.

LIMITED QUANTITY. We have only one of these left to sell. Once out, it will be gone forever.

ADJUSTABLE PRECISION THICKNESS GAUGE &
THICKNESS TOLERANCE GAUGE TOOL #2
"GO - NO GO" GAUGE MECHANICAL GAUGE

(Sorry, we have recently sold this Adjustable Precision Thickness Gage, #2, we are trying to get more.) Used and in very good condition. Adjustable Precision Thickness Gauge and Thickness Tolerance Gauge Tool. This type of gauge is often referred to as a "Go - No Go Gauge". Great for measuring the thicknesses of sheet metal, plate metal, sheet plastic, sheet wood, glass sheet and other objects which can be fitted underneath its hard steel anvils. On the boiler plate (above, left of "2" on left image), I can only read "Whitney" on top line and "West" on line below it (likely Pratt & Whitney). We bought it in a lot of aircraft tools, so also likely this thickness gauge / thickness tolerance gauge is an aircraft gauge. Maximum measured thickness and maximum tolerance thickness are both 1/2", minimums are both 0". Height of each anvil is individually and independently set. This precision thickness tolerance gauge is 3" wide, 3-1/2" tall, 1/2" thick, made of steel. Most of the Pratt Whitney precision Go - No Go gauges of this type we have seen are very limited to measuring small thickness tolerances (e.g. 0.01"), and some are not even adjustable. And since this is a purely mechanical gauge, it never requires batteries, and you can keep it in your tool box with your thickness and tolerances solidly locked into place until you decide to change them. A great hand tool gauge for precision work, and also a great hand tool collectible gauge.
How this thickness gauge / thickness tolerance gauge works is easily and quick: In right image, note side screws just above the anvils (or plungers or pistons) and on top screws directly over the gap. The side screws, when tightened, lock anvil positions so you don't lose a setting. The top screws are used to make the anvils descend to the levels you want to. To measure thickness, you simply back off the top screws to the top of the tool as in right image. You then push up the anvils (side screws loose), same as left image. You then place the sheet, plate or stock underneath the anvils. You then screw down at least one top screw until its anvil gently rests on the top of the sheet, plate or stock. You then tighten its side screw. You then slide out the sheet, plate or stock, and use a caliper to measure the gap between anvil and anvil block beneath it, and that is your thickness. Gauge can also be transferred to someone else to use it with your setting, or stored if repeatedly needed to produce or verify the same results.
The real beauty of this gauge tool is its precision thickness tolerance gauge feature for sheets, plates and stock you buy or make - why it is called a Go - No Go Gauge. For example, you bought a steel plate, and you need to verify that its thickness and thickness tolerance. What you do is first determine what thickness and thickness tolerance are acceptable. For example, your steel plate must be 10mm �0.1mm (your plate must be between 9.9mm and 10.1mm thick). You lift both anvils all the way to the top as before. You then screw in the back top screw until its anvil lowers precisely to the 9.9mm height, as measured by a caliper, and then tighten its side screw to lock it in. You then repeat this process for the front anvil but setting it for 10.1mm. You then run the gauge along the edge of your steel plate along its length. If the plate won't pass under the front anvil, the plate is too thick. If the plate passes under both anvils, then the plate is too thin. If the steel plate passes under the front anvil but not under the back anvil, your steel plate is within both specified thickness and tolerance.

RARE, ANTIQUE PERFECTION NUT CRACKER,
MODEL 1928, MODIFIED TO MAKE A VERSATILE VISE

(Sorry, we just sold this antique Perfection nut cracker.) Used and in very good condition. Rare, antique Perfection Nut Cracker, Model 1928, Patented 1914, Waco, Texas, modified to make a versatile, fast and easy-to-use vise. The T-handle is especially nice - comfortable and well-designed for hard clamping. Unlike almost all other nut crackers, this model has a threaded shaft and T-handle commonly found in vises and clamps to securely press against and hold objects. This Perfection nut cracker is modified with two large, thick knurled washers firmly epoxied to the clamp faces as shown. These added washers increase the clamping surfaces for firmer clamps. Also, the 1/2" dia. washer holes better clamp round and odd-shaped objects. This added feature not only improves the Perfection nut cracker's ability to position and crack nuts without slippage to enhance its inherent nut cracking utility, but is also great for many other uses, especially unusual clamping needs. Further, the head that is on the threaded bolt end floats to some extent (built-in feature) to better hold odd-shaped objects (such as nuts) of just about any kind, similar to how toolmaker vises (tool maker vises) work. Ideal vise or clamp for crafts shops, model shops, fabrication shops, gun shops, jewelry repair shops, and watch repair shops. And a great collectible (you can break off the added washers to restore Perfection Nut Cracker to original condition if you wish).

Used artifact - probably an antiquity. Unique Prehistoric Petrified Wood Pestle Tool. 4-3/4" long, squarish/oblong shape, 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" cross section. Fits the hand perfectly, and is smooth. This petrified wood pestle tool has remnants of unknown whitish stuff at one end that looks like it got there through grinding or pounding (pinkish appearance due to photo underexposure). Discovered about 100 years ago in an area where ancient Native Americans hunted, traveled and camped. Virtually all petrified wood pieces we have seen of about this size and shape have jagged ends and are rough around the periphery - not usable as hand tools. While no one can say for certain that Indians used this petrified wood to grind or crush anything 100s or 1,000s of years ago, we believe it is reasonable to assume that this is a unique or very rare petrified wood hand tool or weapon used by ancient Indians to grind or crush food grains, such as corn (maize), crack open nuts, break down fibrous or tough materials, crack open bones for their marrow, soften leather, club animals or other people, building things, and/or for some other similar uses.

RARE, UNUSUAL ANTIQUE POMEROY NO. 1, 1906
PRESS / PUNCH / RIVETING TOOL + VISE / CLAMP + ANVIL

Used and all of its functions work great. Some surface corrosion, but nothing significantly diminishes tool strength or function. We lubricated all moving parts.

Very rare antique multi-tool Pomeroy No. 1 Press / Punch / Riveting Tool, Vise / Clamp and Anvil Tool, Patented March 27, 1906 - the original Model 1 for this great multi-tool! The silvery object tied to the handle is a removeable modern socket which we simply place over the bottom extension of the press / riveter for hard presses (the socket can also be fitted with various dies and surfaces to suit one's applications without permanently modifying the extensions). You can cut off the plastic tie wrap when you want to use the socket for hard presses or if you wish to get rid of this added feature. The press / punch / riveter and vise / clamp parts of this tool are obvious from the images. The anvil part is less obvious and it consists of two sections: One is the top flat part of the tool between the handle and top of the Vise / Clamp tool part, and the other is the horn-like extension in the front of the Press / Punch / Riveter tool part.

This is a truly ingenious design for a benchtop multi-tool - down to the last detail of including a pipe hole optional way of mounting (Pomeroy multi-tool can also be bolted to top of bench) and alignment with other tools, and the notches in the vise/clamp faces for securely holding round and square stock, such as rods, pipes and tubing, and odd-shaped objects. This tool was made back in a time when most manufacturers and repair shops were small, family operations or factories where each worker had to do several different handtooling functions - opposite of modern assembly lines. With the way the economy is today, once again we are turning to the small operators and home garage shops. This Pomeroy multi-tool is very useful today, as it was then, because a single worker can efficiently use this versatile and compact multitool to perform many of his/her various work functions from just one location on the bench. This makes this Pomeroy multitool an invaluable tool for handy men and women, crafters, modelers, repairers and small shops everywhere.

We have been collecting antique, vintage and unusual hand tools for 50 years. We have many others to sell - if interested, please email us. This is the first Pomeroy No. 1 multi-tool we have run into (Pomeroy Riveting tools are also scarce but they are much more common than this Pomeroy multi-tool). This very rare Pomeroy multi-tool is not only a wonderful tool collectible, but is still very useful for many small shop operations, handymen and crafts people even today. We believe that some of the best tools ever made were proudly Made-in-America 20 - 100+ years ago. In our own Consumertronics.net (and in our Lone Star Consulting, Inc.) electronics labs, many of the tools we use are vintage and antique American-made electronic tools, watchmaker tools, dental tools, jewelers tools, mechanics tools, car tools, medical tools and optometric tools - few of which are still being made today (at least not to their quality). Most people don't realize that these sturdy "old" American-made tools were the best quality and most versatile tools ever made - we salute their inspired inventors and the skilled workers who made them! When you see a great antique or vintage tool - like this Pomeroy - you just can't let it get away from you!

UNIQUE or VERY RARE ITEM: We have only one of these POMEROY NO. 1 MULTITOOLS, and it is apparently so rare that we cannot decide what price to put on it. However, we want to sell this POMEROY NO. 1 MULTITOOL at a fair price to both of us. Interested? Then freely document what price range this POMEROY NO. 1 MULTITOOL is worth and make us an offer (if possible). We will seriously consider and respond to all offers we consider reasonable. If you know of anyone who might be interested, then please freely refer him/her to this listing, and if we agree to sell it to that person, he/she buys it, pays for it in full, his/her payment totally clears (allow 90 days for checks and money orders (except Postal M.O.) to clear), sold at $100+, and he/she does not ask for a refund within 60 days of receipt of Item, we will pay you a 10% finder's fee based on the paid price.

Used and in great condition. We don't know what this large, unusual-looking clamp was originally designed for. The clamping end looks very much like the typical hot patch clamp for tubes. The fancy curve in its body and the much greater thickness of the materials it can handle looks like it is used for patching large, bulky tubes that its smaller cousins can't handle. A regular bench vise can be used to clamp anywhere along its ridge for optimum positioning. It has some surface discoloration as it was stored in a barn, but is fully functional. We don't know its make or model or how old it is. Makes a great tool collectible, and is very useful for clamping all kinds of flexible materials such as rubber, plastic, metal sheeting, and wood for the shop, business, hobbies, crafts, model-making, fabric and sewing uses, etc. If the material is relatively thin and flexible, you likely can roll-up or bunch-up a large quantity of material inside the clamp and clamp much deeper into the material than any other clamp. This clamp of course can be still be used to clamp rigid or thick items and materials to a depth of about 5".

Terrific find at an estate sale! While these technically blacksmith swages or wheelright swages, they could have and still could be used to some extent as blacksmith hammers / wheelright hammers. Heir of owner of these unbelievable swages/hammers told us that his great grandfather, a blacksmith and wheelwright, used these swages / hammers to prepare and repair the wagons of Mormon Pilgrims on their way to Utah shortly after the Civil War. Since we do not know this person or his family, we have no way of knowing and cannot guarantee that his story is true - but if true, these swages/hammers have an incredible history to them!

Longest swage/hammer is almost 23" long (other two are about 15.5" and 15"). We can find no markings on the heads. But two swages/hammers have markings on their handles (the heir did not know if the handles or heads had ever been replaced). One handle has embossed on it, "PROP. OF BETH STEEL" ("BETH STEEL" is best we know (We are not an antique tool expert) an abbreviation for Bethlehem Steel, which built the Golden Gate Bridge), top handle section in 3rd image. Another handle (the long one) has embossed on it, "Prop. of Beth Steel Corp." on one side and "Buckeye", "HARTWELL GENUINE HICKORY", and "HARTWELL BROTHERS MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE" in green lettering on the other side, bottom two handle sections in 3rd image (apparent differences in handle widths and colorations in image are due to lighting and zoom effects, actual color of all handles is a dark brown). Both the swage/hammer heads and handles have seen much vigorous use, but are still very usable if you still wish to use these swages/hammers (much better in a collector's case).

Take a look at the incredible heads on these swages/hammers! On all of your years on this planet, have you seen heads exactly like these! we was told by the heir that the heads are concave like this to accommodate the shape of wagon wheel hubs, and to help shape wagon wheel axles.

Clearly, this is a very special collection of swages/hammers. Do NOT let them get away from you!

NOTE: This Item is being offered at a much reduced price than when originally listed. We seldom lower a price more than once. Usually, if Item does not sell at much reduced price after reasonable time, without further notice, we donate or throw Item away, so please bid on Item right away.

Used and works great. This rare Simonds slotted tool seems like it may have a practical use for rolling ribbon or similar material up. Someone told us it was a common tool used in conjunction with weaving looms back in the 1920s. Three other persons told us that it is a handle for a Simonds crosscut saw - a two-man crosscut saw used for felling large trees in the lumber industry - a Simond saw handle is most probably its actual original use. However, it can also be used for holding a scraping, cutting or chopping head (e.g. axe head). Or for holding or positioning a wedge. Or for aligning big nails or stakes. Or for opening or closing containers that have a rectangular head that fits into the slot. Also makes a great tool collectible. We bought it at an estate sale where the family told us it was `about 100 years old.' We are collecting rare, weird and old tools for decades now. We have never run into another tool like this one. Slot is 3-1/2" long and 3/16" wide with an adjustable washer. It has seen a lot of use, and its surface finish is rough.

RARE, ANTIQUE GAYLORD BROS. BOOK PRESS /
GAYLORD BROS. PAPER PRESS,
INDUSTRIAL BINDERY EQUIPMENT,
FAST SETUP OF WORK / FAST RELEASE OF WORK

(Sorry, we are currently out of this great Gaylord Press, and looking for more). This Gaylord paper press / Gaylord book press is used and in great condition. Works great. Heavy duty book press / paper press / object press. Great book binding equipment as either a printer collectible / bindery collectible or for the job. If job efficiency and speed are important to you, this press / compressor is well-designed and practically unbeatable as set up and release of objects of even highly varying thicknesses being pressed / compressed is easy and fast. Press will handle books, piles of papers, cardboard or anything else you want to press together (up to 8" thick), for examples, to do glue jobs / cement jobs, to press leaves / press flowers, to squeeze out water from cloth, to do prints, to press in indentations / stampings / embossings, for molds, to press electronic components / mechanical components into assemblies, to keep object in a fixed position so it doesn't move around or shift while you are tooling it or painting it, etc. Uses are virtually endless!

Boards are 12" x 7" x 1/2" plywood and are somewhat aged and worn, but you can easily replace them with other boards, metal plates, plastic plates, molds, frames, etc., as they are attached with screws. And of course you can always sandwich between the boards other boards, tempered glass, plastic plates, metal plates, moldings, etc. of various sizes and shapes. The center of the clamp stands 4" from the front edge of the steel shaft that holds the clamp assembly. This means that for boards or plates upto 8" wide, the clamp can be exactly centered. You can substitute or sandwich in boards, etc. up to about 12" wide (if you don't require exact clamp centering) and up to about 16" long for larger works, and of course you can always use smaller boards, etc. as you wish.

The right part of second image shows the bottom of the press and how it sits on surfaces. The top board or plate is easily removed once you release the pressure on it so that you get good visibility in placing and positioning your work on top of the bottom board or plate. Initial positioning is made by quickly sliding up the clamp assembly with its top board/plate along the steel shaft, similarly to how many long carpenter clamps work, and then positioning the top board / plate and snugly tightening down with the clamp's worm screw mechanism to compress the object.

This press is moderate in weight compared to typical worm-screw only presses (which we also sell, see my webpages), and with its convenient "carrying handle" (i.e. the steel shaft), it is highly portable and easy to transport, place, set up and manueuver on the fly on work benches, work tables, pick-up beds, van shops, and other work surfaces. If you replace the boards with metal plates, you can even use the press on a heated surfaces to do hot presses.

RARE, VINTAGE DENTURE PRESS +
CRAFTS PRESS / HOBBY PRESS / MODEL SHOP PRESS / AUTO SHOP PRESS
INDUSTRIAL SHOP PRESS / PRODUCTION PRESS / GENERAL SHOP PRESS

(Sorry, we are sold out of these, we are trying to get more of them). We bought this press at an estate sale; son of deceased told us that his father was a dentist and used these presses decades ago to make dentures. Great as a car shop press, machine shop press, crafts shop press, hobby press, modeling press, general mechanical press, production press for factory, other business and home as a press, clamp or vise. Weighs about 13 lbs. Height is 10.5" when cranked all the way down. Handle is 11.5" long, which can of course be extended for greater pressing power using a pipe extension. Plate area is 7" X 4" (upper round press plate is 4" in dia.). Clearance can be varied from 1" to 5-1/8" for thick objects. Horizontal clearance is 4-1/2" wide, so it easily takes 2x4 amd 4x4 lumber and 4" pipe. Worm screw is 3/4" thick steel. While We have had it cranked down to several 100s of pounds of pressure, best we could tell, it was not even close to its limit (which is not stated on is unknown). The screw-press does have surface rust on it but as far as we can tell, the does not appreciably affect either its operation or maximum applied force. However, since neither the base nor the bottom of the round upper press plate is real smooth, the user might want to slide in 1/4" - 1" thick hardwood, pressed board, metal, plastic or rubber surfaces, according to what suits his/her needs best when smooth contact is required. Can be easily mounted on a work bench, work table, pick up truck bed, RV, van, camper, etc.

Just consider some of the practically unlimited clamp, vise and press functions that a press like this can do for you with the appropriate dies and forms (no dies or forms come with it): (1) Flattening metal, bending metal, forming metal, shaping metal, and swaging metal. (2) Pressing on patches, silkscreens, logos, signatures, boiler plates, etc. (3) Using "cookie cutter" type dies to cut out or punch either cold or hot shapes in wood, plastics and light metals. (4) Printing press. (5) Crushing or pulverizing rocks, bones and other crushable objects and materials for mechanical geological, archaeological, paleontological, forensic, chemical, biological, biomedical, etc. applications. (6) Press fitting gears, pins and rivets. (7) As a punch press. (8) Embossing images and lettering into just about anything that can fit into it that is wood, plastic and thin/soft metals. (9) Pressing and laminating flowers and leaves and other collectibles. (10) For many other glue or cement jobs. (11) Compacting items. (12) Holding items secure for just about any reason, such as for sawing, drilling, threading (e.g. rods, plumbing pipe).

Push down by compressing long spring up to 1-7/8". Tine mechanism can be rotated thru a full 360 degrees. Tool body is 14" long. Most of body (red aluminum part) is 9/16" wide and 1/2" thick. At left end of red part is a 7/8" long 5/16" wide slot, followed by a 1/2" long, 5/16" wide flat area, likely used to lock that end in.

This vise/clamp tool is a great collectible. It is also so versatile that it can be used for numerous other uses not limited to Chrysler cars, for examples, to grip, pull, install, raise and carry gears, pulleys and other objects and parts of many different types, materials, widths and thicknesses. Its lever action is especially useful for difficult pulls and heavier loads. If you want to, you can remove the vise/clamp part from the lever part (cutting may be required) to convert it into a very handy long grabbing tool / gripping tool / holding tool / positioning tool. You can make other modifications as well to suit your needs.

VALVE STEM SEAT CUTTER VISE/VICE/CLAMP TOOL
3V-1A, with Valve Stem, Versatile - Convert into Mini Lathe

Used and in very good condition. Versatile Valve Stem Seat Cutter Vise/Vice/Clamp Tool, inscribed "3V-1A". Tool make is unknown (if you know who makes this tool, please freely email us). With the valve stem in place, you can play around with this fascinating yet very useful and versatile tool to learn how it works, and its various adjustments. Makes a great self-learning tool and teaching tool. You can use locking pliers or a low-speed drill (neither is included) to turn the held object. The clamp is set so that the object is held into position snugly but turns with little resistance (we use oil or grease on the clamp). Note that the position and angle of the chamfer groove, bevel or taper can be adjusted by changing the position of the cutter tool holder. You are not limited to valve stems - any piece of metal, wood or plastic round stock or object that will fit into this tool can be uniformly and accurately beveled, tapered or chamfered at its end to the angle and depth you want to and can set the cutter tool holder. You can even invent your own type of cutter tool holder to even more greatly increase its versatility. This 3V-1A Valve Stem Seat Cutter comes with two 1/4" countersunk mounting holes for sturdy mounting onto a bench top or desktop. Essentially, this tool can be made into a miniature lathe. (Posing vise used to hold tool in bottom photo is not included).

We are currently out of this Item, expect more in soon, if you want to be notified when another comes in, please bookmark and revisit regularly. Rare, antique, vintage car valve reciprocating grinder tool. Used and it works great. 10-3/4" long. By moving the handle up and down, the grinding tool at the bottom first spins one direction and then spins in other direction. This allows for a more even grinding of the surface. Can also be used as a paint mixer. But best as a terrific automotive or antique tool collectible. We bought it at an estate sale, and was told that it was used to service Model-T and Model-A Fords.

Used and works great. This rare and unique stamping tool was originally made for stamping livestock in the mouth as a form of branding them. However, it has many other practical uses where one needs to uniquely identify something in a way that is both permanent (cannot be erased or covered up and won't wear out) and very difficult to counterfeit. You dial in the 4-digit serial number by rotating the wheels at the top of the tool head. Each digit consists of a number of 1/4"-long pointed steel spikes arrayed in the form of a digit (0 - 9) which penetrates or at least indents the material being marked. See upper right of image to see what the stamping looks like. Works especially well with soft-to-medium materials such as leather, plastic, some metals and wood, and flesh between 1/32" to 1/4" thick. Also makes a great collectible. Has some surface discoloration and rust.

Aside from being a great collectible, a really nice thing about this threader is that you can do pipe diameters smaller and larger than the rated diameter for any of its thread TPI. We have mainly used it over the years to thread PVC pipe pieces that we use to house probe electronic circuits so that we could put end caps on them.

RARE UNUSUAL STEEL CONE PLIERS / PUNCH / SWAGE
VERSATILE CONED-NOSED PUNCH PLIER TOOL, SEARS 30771

(Sorry, we recently are sold out of this Cone-Nosed Pliers; we are trying to get more.) Used and in excellent condition with a few minor nicks and scuffs, otherwise like new. Rare, unusual, weird steel Cone-Nose Pliers Punch / Cone Jaw Pliers / Cone Pliers Punch, says Sears 30771. The cone is solid steel and professionally welded on. Great tool collectible / pliers collectible - if you are a pliers collector or punch collector and you don't have one of these, then clearly your pliers collection or punch collection is incomplete. Also, these cone-nosed pliers punch is very useful. Even if widely opened, the edge of top edge of the cone is accessible to a hammer. Functions include: (1) Pressing or tapping countersink holes into wood, plastic and soft metals. (2) Punching starter holes and widening existing holes into wood, plastics and soft metals. (3) Punching holes into cans and other containers. (4) Manipulating springs. (5) Sizing and expanding rings. (6) Opening chains and locks. (7) Swaging or shaping holes. (8) Untying knots in ropes, cabling, wires, straps, webbing, ribbons and even chains, especially tight knots. These Sears cone-nosed pliers countersinking function is especially advantageous because instead of cutting out the material like bit-type countersinking tools do, thus weakening the hole, these Sears 30771 cone pliers compress the material, thereby increasing countersink hole strength. Caution: The pointed end is very sharp, so be careful.

LIMITED QUANTITY. We have only one of these of this very rare item; once sold, we can't replace it.

(2) Rotate the metal disk roller on front end of tool until it sets the little white pointer on the zero position of the Mileage Scale (just right of Map Ratio Scale). (3) Place map on flat surface, and smooth out any wrinkles. (4) Place the roller at your leftmost End Point, then roll along any path you want to take in the right direction (may be straight, curved or complex) until you reach rightmost End Point. Then read mileage above white pointer on tool's Mileage Scale.
     INCREDIBLE NUMBER OF MAP RATIO SCALES: 0.1, 0.2, 1, 1-1/2, 2, 2-1/2, 3, 3-1/2, 4, 4-1/2, 5, 5-1/2, 6, 6-1/2, 7, 7-1/2, 8, 8-1/2, 9, 9-1/2, 10, 11, and 12 Miles-Per-Inch.
     VERSATILE AND VERY USEFUL TOOL: Not limited to commercial maps - can be used with all types of maps - even maps you draw yourself, and those you print out from your computer. Even on non-map drawings and photos. Not limited to map tracing. Can also be adapted to shop, carpentry and plumbing jobs, especially in places hard to strike a ruler, as you can assume the mileage scale reads inches or feet instead. For direct readings, we do this by setting it on the Ratio Scale of "1" for inches-to-inches, or on "12" for inches-to-feet. For reproductions that are not full scale, we set the Ratio Scale to the ratio of the reproduction to the original, for example, on "4" for reproductions that are 4 times larger than their drawings. Also great to estimate sizes of curved parts and structures where rulers do not work. So many different uses, including map-reading, carpentry, sculpturing, crafts, model-making, archaeology, paleontology, manufacturing, etc.

STEEL GLOBEMASTER No. 62020 REEL TOOL
RARE 6" DIA. REEL, w/ SPRING STEEL TAPE
FISH TAPE / CABLE PULLER / WIRE PULLER / LEADER PULLER /
FEEDER PULLER / LINE PULLING / PLUMBERS SNAKE
ELECTRICIANS ELECTRICAL / ELECTRONIC / PLUMBING

Used and in very good condition. Rare Steel Globemaster Reel Tool, No. 62020, with unmarked spring steel tape (end has a spring with a brass ball at the end), 6" dia, 1/4" thick disk body. We are not sure what this device was primarily designed for. We believe that it is an Electrician's Cable Puller Tool also commonly known as a Leader Puller / Feeder Puller and Fish Tape, and what we used it for. But we were told by one person that it was used to measure the depths of lakes, rivers and wells, and of holes in the earth. And another told us that it was used as a Plumber's Snake to unplug stopped-up toilets, which seems like a reasonable use because sewer line tapes that don't have a ball at the end can severely scratch up toilet bowl porcelain. However, the spring has no rust or even discoloration on it, nor does it smell of anything that we can detect, indicating that if exposed to water, it was done seldom, or the water was clean water and the spring dried afterwards. This device could be adapted for other uses. If you know the actual intended use of this device, please freely let us know. In the 3rd image, reel is shown resting in a vise; the vise is not included but used for posing. This is both a great tool and a great tool collectible. Made in Japan. This Globemaster tool was made back in the day when Japan produced most of our imports, and Chinese imports were virtually unknown.

Can also be used to cut soft cylindrical objects (e.g. cigars). Produced ball size is about 1-1/4" diameter. We bought several of these. Make (likely Boyle Co.), model are unknown. 4-1/2" long when folded up,and 8-1/8"long when spread out. It looks like it was silver-plated. Cutting edges are still sharp, so handle with care. Great for the crafts person to make ceramic balls from clay. Great for the pastry chef to make dough balls, fudge, butter, peanut butter similar balls. Great for the fruit lover and ice cream lover. Great collectible antique (believed to have been made in 1920s).

Used and in very good condition. We recently bought this rare old tool, which has has a prominent swastika on it in raised metal. We are long-time collectors of unusual, strange and weird hand tools. This particular type of tool is familiar to John Williams, our CEO. About 40 years ago, he worked for the Air Force as an electronics engineer at Holloman, AFB, near Alamogordo, NM. Several of the engineers and technicians he worked with were former Nazis who, after World War II, were sent to New Mexico for various post-World War II rocket programs, and were nearing retirement. In a conversation with one of these former-Nazi technicians, he learned that the ex-Nazi also collected hand tools. The ex-Nazi told him that during World War II, he had hid his tool collection in a cellar in Germany, and returned in the late 1950s and retrieved his collection. One tool he showed Williams was very similar, if not identical, to this swastika tool Williams. This tool is made of cast iron or steel, about 6" tall, shown above. It roughly resembles a gear puller-type tool with two claw-like jaws, and a screw mechanism which moves the jaws in and out. This ex-Nazi told him that this tool was used as an interrogation device (euphemism for Nazi torture device).
How the ex-Nazi Claimed This Tool Type was Used for Interrogations: Operation was easy and simple. The person being interrogated was stood up against a heavy board with a vertical slot in it at neck level (or stood up against a post or tree). A garrote loop (noose) was placed around the person's neck and fed thru the board slot (or around the post or tree), and then attached to the claw-like jaws of the tool positioned behind the board / post / tree. The tool's screw was then slowly turned to steadily tighten the garrote noose until the person divulged the sought after info / confessed to the offense, and/or was strangled to death.
This tool is not the same tool as this ex-Nazi German technician owned but one which looks very similar, if not identical, to that tool. Williams recently bought this tool so that it could not be purchased by someone else who might also recognize it as a Nazi torture device, but who would then use it in a way to promote Nazism, gloat about its abuses against Jews, Gypsies, Russians, freedom fighters, clergy, homosexuals and other Third-Reich victims, or even use it as an interrogation device / torture device today. In the several decades Williams has collected unusual hand tools, this one is only the second one he has ever seen, so it is very rare today, and possibly is the only remaining one left. The arms of its swastika point right, not left as usually found in sun symbols, so the ex-Nazi German technician was very likely telling Williams the truth about the tool's Third Reich origins and abuses.

Note #1: While it is not impossible that this tool could have been made as an actual gear puller (or pully puller or wheel puller), there are significant differences in its design to usual gear pullers which makes us doubt that it is suitable for much gear pulling but ideal as a Nazi torture device / Nazi interrogation device. There is no way we can prove that this particular tool was ever intended or abused as a Nazi Torture Tool / Nazi Interrogation Tool. It may have been originally designed for purely innocent uses unknown to us, and then later adapted to Nazi abuses. It may have never been abused by the Nazis even though others of the same make and model may or may not have been abused by the Nazis. However, this tool has certain inexplicable design features which would make the tool ideal as a strangulation tool but highly limited at best to normal gear pulling, and also that it is a special tool of significant importance to Nazis:
          (1) Normal gear pullers have a fitting at the screw end which pushes down on the gear hub to provide the usually great force required for the claws to pull off gears. This tool functions differently; the screw would not press against a hub, for the jaws to pull anything, the tool feet must first press against a firm surface, which does not exist for most gear-pulling situations but easily exist for torture abuses (e.g. board, post or tree).
          (2) The hole thru the hex screw head results in only about an 1/8th inch of metal thickness left, so it appears that the hole would break if much force was exerted against it by a breaker bar inserted thru the hole. Coupled with the fact that the connection of the jaws to the screw fitting also looks weak for gear puller uses. Many gears (and pullies and wheels) are stuck on very tight because they are press-fitted and/or rusted into place, often requiring 100s of pounds of pull force to dislodge them - even small gears 1" or so in diameter. We doubt that this Nazi tool could apply much more than 100 lb of pull force before breaking either at the screw head or jaws. A person can be strangled with as little as 10 lbs of force against the neck, so the tool is certainly more than strong enough for torture but too weak for heavy gear pulling.
          (3) This tool was cast with a prominent swastika symbol in raised steel. Clearly, most German-made tools during the Third Reich did not have prominent swastikas cast into them. This means that this tool likely held a special meaning, application and importance to Nazis way beyond their ordinary tool uses. Also, the compact size and shape of this tool makes it very portable in the field in a coat pocket, back pack or valise for uses in the field, such as with a military unit.

Note #2: This tool is NOT being sold as Nazi memorabilia NOR as 3rd Reich memorabilia. We intend to sell this likely Nazi torture tool only to an institution, business or person whom we believe will handle and display this tool in a positive and responsibe manner, such as a Holocaust Museum, respected university, civil rights organization, etc. If you know of any history about this tool, please freely provide it to us.

(Sorry, we recently sold this rare detonator/plunger device; we are looking for more.) Used and in very good condition. Rare, antique, unknown steel Plunger (Detonator?) type device. Great mining collectible or militaria collectible. About 13" long, 3/4" dia. We do not know its exact use. Make and model are unknown ("Patent Applied For" stamped on it); very rare or perhaps even unique. What it used or tested is not likely around any more. If you know what its function is, please freely let us know. Our best guesses are for mining operations or long-ago method for testing ammo or charges.

HOW IT WORKS: On right end is a small ball on an extension, which ball lever probably fit some kind of triggering device. When the ball lever is rotated, the plunger descends down the tube, about 5/16". Left end also has a screwed-On piece. When it is screwed on, the 1/8" dia. steel plunger fits into the 1/8" hole shown on the long threaded end of this end piece and can be seen emerging from back of 3/8" hole on other end. The exact depth of the descended plunger into the 3/8" dia. hole of the end piece is set and locked into place by using the knurled adjustment nut. Some type of cap or other object used with this device is fitted into this 3/8" dia. hole and secured into place by the screw shown above it. When the plunger is activated by movement of the little ball lever, plunger descends into the back of the secured object at other end, which then strikes the back of the cap or other object to activate it. The 3/8" dia. hole is about 1-3/4" deep, and if desired, its diameter can be increased by using a reamer. Fine threading is used for both end pieces.

KEUFFEL & ESSER (K&E) LUCITE DRAFTING TOOL
DRAWING TOOL / TRACING TOOL
SCRIBER TOOL / ETCHER TOOL / ENGRAVER TOOL
MAPPING TOOL / CARTOGRAPHY TOOL
ARCHITECTURAL TOOL

Used and in very good condition. Keuffel Esser (K&E) or Direct Reproduction Corp. (makers of precision drafting instruments) (ULster 7-6116 Made in England) Lucite Drafting Tool, Scribing Tool, Etching Tool, Architectural Tool, Map Tool, Cartography Tool, Drawing Tool, Tracing Tool, Engraving Tool, etc. Backside is 2-1/2" wide, and front-to-back is 2-1/2". We bought these at an estate sale without being certain as to their original or intended uses. Note: This sale is for ONE of the lucite tools and NOT for the wood box full of them as shown (the box full of these types of tools are shown to show the container that this tool came in, other tools that it is associated with, and the variations in these lucite tools - you may not get the exact one shown). Some of these tools are marked with Keuffel & Esser (K&E), and others marked with Direct Reproduction Corp. While there are variations between these lucite tools, their functions appear to be identical. Each has two adjustable back feet, with a ball bearing at the end of each foot for easy scuff-free manuevering on sensitive surfaces, such as paper, plastic sheeting, plexiglas, glass, vinyl, naugahyde and wood veneer. At the front end is an adjustable pointed cutter or stylus. These lucite tools were made of lucite so that the underlying map or document could be viewed through the tool for faster and more efficient positioning.
We were emailed that these lucite tools were used in cartography (map making). They placed over a base map a clear mylar sheet which was coated with orange or red translucent paint (map was visible thru the coated plastic mylar). The lucite tool with its sharp cutter was placed on the coated mylar sheet, and then moved along where one wanted a line or border, cutting the mylar to make a handmade negative of the relevant underlying map area. After all relevant lines were cut, the resulting map negative was contact printed as part of a mapping project. Other coated mylar could have windows cut out of them using this lucite tool - the part that one wanted to view the map or document thru or print, while obscuring the rest of the map or document, was peeled off to make a window. In this case, the cutter was used to go around and cut the outside edge of the window. Clearly, this precision professional tool could also be used for many projects involving the cutting of paper, cardstock or plastic sheet, ranging from cutting out or tracing images of favorite celebrities in magazines, paper dolls, signs, editing photographs, etc. Can also be used as an engraving tool or outlining tool, scoring tool, and for making cut lines, break lines and tear lines (e.g. cutting out gaskets). This lucite tool can probably be modified to replace the cutter with a pen or pencil.
A great professional precision tool for cartographers, architects, draftsmen, hobbyists, crafters, model makers, and artists. Also a great professional tool collectible / cartography collectible - likely an invaluable rare military collectible (militaria) since these types of tools were mostly used on large flat maps that the military used for tactical and strategic planning during our great wars. We also sell the triangular metal tool with the magnifier glass (shown in the box image), which appears to be used in conjunction with it, if interested, also buy the metal tool for reduced combined S/H - a great militaria combo. The cutter tool is very sharply pointed, so handle with care.

KEUFFEL & ESSER (K&E) METAL DRAFTING TOOL
DRAWING TOOL / TRACING TOOL
SCRIBER TOOL / ETCHER TOOL / ENGRAVER TOOL
MAPPING TOOL / CARTOGRAPHY TOOL
ARCHITECTURAL TOOL

(Sorry, we sold out of this K&E Metal Drafting Tool; we are trying to get more.) Used and in very good condition. Keuffel Esser (K&E) or Direct Reproduction Corp. Metal Drafting Tool, Scribing Tool, Etching Tool, Architectural Tool, Map Tool, Cartography Tool, Drawing Tool, Tracing Tool, Engraving Tool, etc. There is no make or model # on either metal tool, but they came in a box with K&E and Direct Reproduction Corp. (makers of precision drafting instruments) lucite tools which are marked. The metal body appears to be black-painted brass. Backside is 2-1/2" wide, and front-to-back is 2" (excluding magnifier and paw). We bought these at an estate sale without being certain as to their original or intended uses. Note: This sale is for ONE of the metal tools and NOT for the wood box full of them as shown (the box full of these types of tools are shown to show the container that this tool came in, other tools that it is associated with, and the variations in these metal tools - you may not get the exact one shown). Variations between the metal tools are minor, and their functions appear to be identical. Each has two adjustable back feet, with a ball bearing at the end of each foot for easy and scuff-free manuevering on sensitive surfaces, such as paper, plastic, plexiglas, glass, vinyl, leather, naugahyde and wood veneer. At the front end is an adjustable "paw" with what looks like a small claw at the end. On the same shaft as the paw and above it is a magnifying glass, which focal point seems to be exactly on the surface, but the magnifier can be upwardly adjustable to view non-flat objects as well. The magnifier and paw can be swung around various positions, but likely point to frontally.
We were emailed that the associated lucite tools were used in cartography (map making), see details of our offer for the lucite tool associated with this tool for how the lucite tool was used, so this metal tool was also a cartography tool. The magnifier of this metal tool has the clear purpose of viewing magified images of the map, document, drawing, engraving or object that the magnifier was poised over. This is a great professional tool for analyzing maps, documents, drawings, works of art, engravings, stamps, coins, paper money, gems, biological specimens, medical specimens, fossils, circuit boards, small hardware, etc. And a great precision tool for doing miniature repairs, replacements and analyses, such as watchmaking, jewelery repairs, electronics and miniature model making. Works like a hands-free loop (loupe) with no frontal blocking of light or obstruction of viewed objects.
A great professional precision tool for cartographers, architects, draftsmen, hobbyists, crafters, model makers, artists, stamp/money/gem collectors, document analyzers, forensic scientists, biologists, geologists, paleontologists, medical doctors, engineers, lab technicians, clock/watch repairers, jewelers, etc. Also, a great professional tool collectible / cartography collectible - likely an invaluable rare military collectible (militaria) since these types of tools were mostly used on large flat maps that the military used for tactical and strategic planning during our great wars. We also sell the triangular lucite tool (shown in the box image), which appears to be used in conjunction with it, if interested, also buy the lucite tool for reduced combined S/H - great militaria combo.

PINCH VISE / PINCH CLAMP / FLY-TYING VISE
RARE HANDHELD VERSATILE VISE / CLAMP
CRAFTS, MODELING, ELECTRONICS, CLOCKS
JEWELRY, PHOTOS, CSI / FORENSIC, MEDICAL

Used and in excellent condition. Rare versatile handheld Pinch Clamp / Gripper Clamp. This hand held pinch vise or pinch clamp tool was made from a rare antique tool (no parts of the antique tool are missing or modified). Pinch clamp opens between 0" to about 5/16" to hold any object within that thickness range (if bigger gap is needed, simply use a longer thumb screw). Its two washers have rubber pads on them to not mar your held objects. You can easily remove these two washers and substitute with washers with or without rubber pads (e.g. to solder or heat the held object or to dip it into chemicals) - bigger washers, smaller washers, oval washers, rectangular washers, and other odd-shaped and odd-type washers or extensions you can make or buy to customize this tool for your particular needs. Washers and extensions can be made of metal, wood, plastic, hard rubber or composite materials. You can also stack on more than two washers or extensions to hold multi-layer / laminated objects, and mulitple objects of same or different types or thicknesses. You can also use the pinch clamp to hold a cutter wheel(s) or blade(s), sanding wheel(s) or grinding wheel(s) to cut, scrape, grind, smooth or shape your work. And it is also great as a tool extension for small tools.

The pinch clamp itself can be held in the hand or by a vise (soft-jaw vise preferred) or larger clamp. We prefer to hold the pinch clamp using a laboratory clamp / holder (talon clamp or extension clamp), of the 3-prong clamp or round jaw clamp type to easily and securely hold and position it at any angle and maneuver it with ease hands-free.

This pinch clamp can also be used as a fish fly-tying vise tool (fly-tying clamp / fly-tying holder / fly-tying gripper) to grip your hooks and other small parts. And it can also be used to hold or grip just about any small object (including small tools to work on the tools or as tool extensions). One image shows it gripping a few pages of paper, the other image shows it gripping a 36" long wood ruler between its two washers, securely clamped down using the thumb screw so that you can securely work on the object without touching it with your fingers. And it is great for clamping down on smaller glue jobs and solder jobs. The pinch clamp is great for the crafts person, modeler, electronics fabricator, jewelery worker, clock repairer / watch repairer, photographer, seamstress, paster-up, electroplater, CSI / forensic personnel, medical workers, and other small precision types of jobs - especially small jobs where you don't want to handle or touch objects.

If you have room for just one handheld vise, the pinch clamp is it! We have several of these to sell, when this pinch vise sells, we will list another, so you can buy one for each hand, or to gift.

The screw shaft securely fits into the post hole to hold the pan on. Once you have the pan attached, you simply zero in the scale, then put in your objects to be weighed. Bought at an estate sale. While its primary use was reported to weigh gold in the field, other of its many popular uses include weighing other minerals, gemstones, mechanical parts, and grains.

ADJUSTABLE-HEAD CLAW HEAD HAMMER
ADJUSTABLE CLAW HAMMER HEAD /
ADJUSTABLE CLAW HEAD HAMMER /
ADJUSTABLE HAMMER HEAD - RARE, STEEL

Used and in very good condition; all functions are excellent, there is no visible rust and plastic on handle is in great condition and snug-tight. Rare high-quality steel Adjustable-Head Claw Head Hammer. We recently bought this adjustable-head claw head hammer at an estate sale (a year earlier, we bought another one exactly like this adjustable hammer also at an estate sale where the wife of the deceased stated that hammer's owner was a tool inventor, which we sold Nov. 6 on eBay for $995), so this adjustable-head claw hammer may even be an invention prototype, manufacturer's approval sample, or a (very) limited issue tool (we do not know how many were made or are still available). With decades of experience of buying unusual tools, we have found only three adjustable head hammers, including this one, all of this same type, all found near Albuquerque, NM, and we own this one and the one we have in our tool collection.
UTILITY: The claw hammer's head is easily and quickly adjusted. You simply push in the long black lever, and then position the head to the desired angle (of 3 angles), then release the lever, leaving the head rigidly and securely at selected angle. This adjustable-head claw hammer has outstanding advantages over standard non-adjustable hammers. In its traditional "T" head position, the hammer has all the uses of normal claw head hammers of this general size, shape and weight. However, with the head pointed up of this adjustable hammer, you can reach 2+ inches higher, and it also great for working on vertical surfaces (e.g. walls and fences), slanted-up surfaces (e.g. roofs), for nailing near the edge of a surface you don't want to accidentally hit or score (e.g. high up on a wall near a ceiling), for difficult ceilings and overhead work, and for nailing nails angled towards you. With the head pointed down, hammering on slanted-down surfaces (e.g. roofs), difficult underside surfaces, and for nails angled away from you. Of equal importance, when you pull nails or separate stuck boards using a claw hammer's claw, the angle of the hammer handle, along with your body's position, are critical to the amount of leverage you can apply (i.e. nail-pulling force / board-separating force). With this adjustable-head claw hammer, you can adjust head angle to much more easily, quickly and efficiently pull nails and separate stuck boards. For maximum leverage for pulling nails, the angled-up hammer head position is especially powerful where you are also pushing against the surface with the nails. This great increase in hammer efficiency means you can hammer or pull faster, more easily, and with less resulting strain, busted knuckles and 'aches-and-pains' at the end of your work day using this adjustable head hammer.
COLLECTIBLE: This is an incredible collectible hammer find! We can find no other adjustable head hammer anywhere. If you collect rare tools in general or hammers or claw hammers in particular, your collection will never be complete and always have a glaring deficiency without this incredible adjustable-head claw hammer as part of your collection! A real treasure and conversation piece!

Used and in great condition. Rare, vintage IBM Pliers, IBM Smooth Jaw Pliers. Similar to B5113 pliers but these are authentic and rare IBM pliers. We have no idea what these were originally used for, but probably lineman's pliers. The round sides are great for pulling wires, strings or threads together (or apart). Usually, pliers with smooth jaws are used in jewelry fabrication and jewelry repair, but the "IBM" indicates a computer, electronic or electrical use. Great collectible and conversational piece.

(Sorry, we just sold these really nice brass tongs, looking for more). We bought these big solid brass ice tongs at an estate sale. We was told that it was made in the 1930s - not quite antique yet, but certainly vintage. These brass tongs do not have any stampings on it as to manufacturer or part number. We do not know the family and we are not an expert on this kind of Item, so we do not make any claims as to this account. Great as a display for the fine home, office, restaurant, tavern, tourist attraction! The image shows the tongs on a tiled background, tiles are 12" x 12" size. Completely closed tongs are 16" high, and completely opened up tongs are 22" wide.

Used and in great condition. The box has seen better days but is still intact. This is NOT the clearly more common No. 702 Ace Stapler that uses the No. 70001 staples (of which we have and use about a half-dozen of), but the No. 702 that uses the No. 700 staples (apparently, the same staples but with an older number; there are minor physical differences between the two staplers but they don't apparently affect the staples used). These staples are truly distinctive and very classy - as far as we know - ACE was the only one who made staplers that used these "undulated staples" (wavy staples). Whatever you staple stands apart from everything else anyone else has submitted alongside what you submitted. We have had people call us on the phone and ask us what in the world we use as a stapler and how can they get a stapler just like mine. This No. 702 Ace Clipper, however, is apparently so rare - in all my years of looking - this is the only one We have ever found - so We are not selling it cheap. We would not even suggest to use it but perhaps display it. Both the 702s that use 70001 staples and the ones that use 700 staples are very high quality chrome plated staplers - we swear if these were fetched from a sunken ship after years, they still would be bright and shiny - none of that awful mousy grey or black paint used on "standard" office staplers.
