In my unending quest for crocus cloth, I ended up in another older
hardware store today. This one I don't get to frequently since it's
off my normal routes, but I thought I'd give it a try. No luck on
crocus, but found this:
http://www.productsengineering.com/g...pwrenches.html

PEC is an old tool brand, have some thread checkers and such with
their name on it I inherited. Seems like decently made stuff.
Anyway, a somewhat different approach to a mundane item, thought folks
would like to see it. Only thing I'd like to see with this is one
with a ratchet handle. Have several Stanleys with ratchets, very
handy on car work.

Neat. The Hornady bullet puller is of similar design.
