Old Canvas roll - bandit571 - 12-13-2023
That I bought at the Tractor Fest last Labor Day...
[attachment=49047]
Decided to sort through a few things...toss out the junk ones...and see IF I have the replacement Bits..
Got out the Black Box..
[attachment=49048]
Opened it up..
[attachment=49049]
Pull out a few Irwins...
[attachment=49050]
Some of the bits needed cleaned up, BEFORE I could figure out the "Toss or Keep" part...Jennings bit, without the square, tapered end..toss. A few were too pitted from rust, a couple no longer had their spurs....
Finally..
[attachment=49051]
A "full set"....4/16" up to 16/16"...found the awol sizes...replaced the trashed bits..
Then roll the canvas back up..
[attachment=49052]
Roll has 2 eyelets...you can either hang by 2 hooks on a wall, all opened up and ready for use..or...
[attachment=49053]
Leave it rolled up, and hang it by one hook/nail/screw...
[attachment=49054]
Where it is out of the way, until called for.
Bits are now all Irwins, or made by Irwin....Cleaned up with a wire wheel on my grinder...
Price? Spent about $5....

Can't beat that price. Still working on a full set myself. I need to get out and organize them to see where I am now.

Did you oil up the old canvas?
RE: Old Canvas roll - bandit571 - 12-15-2023
Was oily enough as it was....could used a darn good cleaning, though...
RE: Old Canvas roll - bandit571 - 12-26-2023
May toss that roll into the Washer, on the Next Laundry Detail....without the bits, of course...
Next Rust Hunt...I might start looking for the Jennings versions...and see IF I can build a similar set....just have to remember whether they are fine thread, or coarse thread Snails...then check on what ones I do have on hand...
