Just used a clamp that was made in the 1930's by a relative then realised I had a some clamps from even older and a couple of old hammers.
What's your oldest tool that you still use ?
My oldest tool is called Mark and was first used in 1983.
I got a set of King Dick spanners I inherited from my father (he was a lorry mechanic).
They were the dogs bo**ocks in the 50s.
Nothing of age to post but some more recent tool acquisitions include...
1. Wagner L609 Shopline 4% to 22% Pinless LED Wood Moisture Meter
2. Leatherman Wave with Deluxe Leather Belt Sheath
3. Cepco Tool BoWrench BW-4 Tongue and Groove Cam Attachment
4. General Tools 139B 1/2-Inch Internal Pipe Wrench
5. GB 10-123 Electrical Butt Splice 16-14AWG Terminals, Blue, 100-Pack
6. General Tools 196 Hand Reamer and Countersink
All of these are available on Amazon.
Interestingly, King Dick tools are still made to this day.
Your right! ... they started making tools in 1856!!
Bit expensive now thou......set of metric ring spanners, £139!! :o
Used to use King Dick tools when I worked on aircraft in the RAF, used to get some serious abuse and regularly survived olympic-style tool throwing sessions across the hangar during moments of 'distress' :D
I've got quite a few old tin boxes that came from my Grandfather. Oxo and Players cigarette tins etc. Some of these things can be quite valuable these days.
Nothing that old.
I do have a couple of Mecano screwdrivers that I still use, they must be more than 30 years old. Oh and my trusty black & Decker drill is almost 20. Still works, but the variable speed is a bit flaky (allways goes fast, won't do slow).
I have an old oil can made from a "Artillary shell" circa 1st WW, it was a great grandads.
