Tuesday Tool Thread

[catchourbreath]

Those are nice, the threading part was a bit finicky on ours, needed to lube it way more than on a phil.

The patent on those expired recently, and there are lots of less expensive options now, including one by Knipex themselves in a black finish.

I do not know what this was originally used for but I found it at a flea market at the local farmers market. The original leather washer was deteriorated beyond use. Found some correct sized rubber washers at the local hardware store. I filled it with Mobil 1 and it lays down a nice little bead of grease. Almost looking forward to rebuilding some hubs. I have a total of $6.50 invested for the tool and washers

Love Knipex. As an industrial mechanic. All their tools where great very will made.

I think that might be an embalming tool.

Enjoy!

I've always lusted after the milled adjustable cone wrench version of these.
