It's much like the little toy airplane I bought, still have it in it's packaging, that says: "go for break" instead of "go for broke" on the wings. Those wild and wacky Chinese.

 

Quarter inch drive...man, that's a short one. :) Wonder how many quarter inches per mile my car will go?

 

 

ken.

Just kind of curious, is that also a satin finish? Looks pretty damn shiny! I wonder what the lifetime warranty covers...

bwahahaha you have a very rare set of 1/4" stubby drive combination ratchet wrenches, no matter what it looks like, they all fit 1/4" only, its kinda like a twilight zone episode or something.

 

Just to set the record straight I sure as heck did not buy this knuckle busting set of wrenches.

Well the website clearly sez they are open/boxed wrenches...I was thinking there was a wrench with a 1/4" drive in it, like a klutch style...

.....but no, there is not!

 

INFACT!!! There is no 1/4 inch wrench either.....it stops at 3/8.

 

This can only mean one thing. Someone is trying to get our attention.....someone needs our help.

 

When dividing 4 by 1, the number changes to 0.25

The latin translation for "drive" is "veho"

When I inputted the translation to Google maps, it found 25 Veho Cir, Crossville, Tnn.....and its an undeveloped 1/4 acre lot!!!!!! 

 

Northern Tool Equipment is buying land in the South!!!!!!!

 

I have no idea what this means??? But it must be important if they are trying to get a meassage to Don.....wow.

 

And to think I would have just torn the cardboard off and thrown it away without looking..... :huh::lol:

If I ever get to name a street or road, it's going to be: "Quarterinch Drive".

When I went to school, in the last century, dividing 4 by 1 yielded "4".   If that's still true, you are off by four quadrants,..........or would it be sixteen as 4 divided by .25 equals 16  :o

My Dad was a 39 year employee of Ma Bell/ New England Telephone /ATT / Verizon.. This tool was standard issue when he entered into there employ in 1959.  Being a you lad in the 60's and having access to his tool belt, this one tool used to amaze me at how well it was made.  Thanks for bringing back this memory.

 

 

This is a Yankee screwdriver.

Here in CA a "wonton" is also known as a "Juanton" . We always referred to it as an "one ton".

"Scru Yu Too" has relatives in many nationalities!
