As a jr college trained machinist (I made a hardened adj surface gauge and
a non-hardened screw jack), I cannot say fer certain about the wrench,
but the screwdriver looks like a commercially available model, the
likes of which I've seen before. They even make reproductions:

Thank you.

So, the screw driver probably is commercial but the wrench might
possibly be "home made." I figured if it were a commercially made wrench
the sizes would be marked but this one has no markings on it.
