[FS] Vintage Made-in-the-USA Tools - Irwin, Stanley, Crescent, etc.

Want some quality, American-made Tools?

​

I have about seven toolboxes worth of classic American made tools. They all came from the estate of a retired Bell System (now AT&T) lineman. All these tools are made by Irwin, Stanley, Crescent, Utica Tool, etc. for Bell System, a defunct telecom company. These tools date back to the late 1970's and early 1980's. Most of them are stamped "Bell System"

These tools are used, but in good condition. I cleaned some of them up with a wire brush, and lubricated all the moving parts. Some of these are speciality tools for telecom use.

These are all speciality pliers, I have no idea what they do or how to use them. They are probably made for specific telecom purposes like terminating phone lines. If you can tell me what any of them are for, that would be great.

Stanley Yankee Ratcheting Screwdriver with 3 Bits - $20

Dibs.

 

This baby?

 

Yes sir.

I think it's cool AF, plus I love Z31's so funds would go to a good cause

 

Cool, I'll set it aside for ya.

 

Is the one circled in green $10?

 

Yes sir, $10.

 

I’ll take it if it’s flush cut. Can I get a better picture of the cutting part?

 

They’re flush cut side cutters.

Also @Kwikvette there is the Yankee driver

 

Not quite what I was hoping for. But $10 is $10 right? Shoot me your PayPal

 

I wanna fund myfairladyZ so here goes...



I'll take this cause it looks cool




Is this a Schrader valve removal tool? If so ill take it as well




See this screwdriver I have circled? The size of the flathead is no wider than the size of the shaft diameter (at least it looks like it to me) that's known as a cabinet tip screwdriver

Could you measure the length of that shaft and the width of the tip for me? I might take it as well as this one

But ill only take that yellow one if it's a cabinet tip ... hard to tell in the photo





Also dibs on the freebie tool kit.... buy the looks of it the collar should unscrew and each "head" should be interchangeable

 

maybe you can meet up with @Sperrunner and pick up that power steering pump to send in this same shipment

 

Whats the width on these?


I'll take these


And another side question. Whats the width of the slip jaw pliers to the right of what I have circled?

 

I've sold QUITE a bit of tools in the last five hours, here's what I have left from your original list. The screwdriver head is indeed the same size as the shaft.



Here are the Proto measurements:

 

INVENTORY UPDATED

 

So intrigued by weird pliers with leprosy.

 

Your guess is as good as mine. I think I’ve come to the conclusion they’re for crimping telecom line. You think that’s weird? Look at the jaws of the yellow one:

 

Conceiving of the negative space that was designed to interact with is...taxing.

 

I'll take what you've got left

 

Dang, I missed out on some good deals! Would've snagged some of those pliers but the ones I'm interested in already sold. Best of luck with the sale
