Bro,
Here's pics of what I was putting up when you called this morning. I think the wifey and I have way too much stuff, and we still have a lot of work to do with ceiling paint and final trim and our dealer plaques around the Case Eagle plaque with all the lettered tractors on it, (one of my prized peices of Case memorbilia) but we got all winter. LOL

I like your taste in home decor, good job. If I were to try that I think my wifey would say "and who do you think is going to dust all that stuff" LOL Rod.

Loren,

Very nice collection of Case memorabilia and antique tools. I wish my wife would let me display my stuff out in the open like you have done. How many years was your family a Case dealer? Don

That is a very nice collection. In the first picture, what was the long wrench with a triangle opening used for?

Moline Guy,
I am not sure myself, but it appears to be a pipe wrench. One onside face is smooth and the otherside is saw tooth with sharp edge facing into the V. I'm not sure about the green wrench with the handles either, it appears that it could also be used as an adjustable pipe wrench also.

PS, I will post it on tool talk and see what the answers are there.

Loren: the green "wrench" is a pair of pipe tongs......used essentially for the same purpose as a pipe wrench.

We used to have one but it was sold at auction 34 years ago. Used on nuts instead of an adjustable wrench, was mighty clumsy but would work, the groved edge was the side that went against the nut and the smooth side just pushed against the corner of the nut and you pulled on the handle. The groves would tighten into the nut. Have seen a lot of them at swap meet flea markets since. Replaced a dozen different sizes back when everything was horse powered.
