Late forties/early fifties my Dad was a phone company lineman - there
are some "Bell system" donations in my tool box - "snips" , sidecutters
(can I say "dykes"???) and a soldering iron of ample size w/ a cloth
covered cord - still my favorite on the bench.
There is something about a "just about worn out" hand tool . . ..
Glen, don't lose that adapter hahahahaha!

The Bristol hex wrenches were made in Waterbury, Conn. Still in original
package. I also have a set of sockets made by Blackhawk that are 7/16
square drive, also has a 1/2 to 7/16 adapter with them.
