more home tools

[MikeM]

not sure where these came from think my dad made them ?

8mm socket welded onto bar..... what was he doing ?

also the curved tool ?

[deltarider]

The curved one is to adjust the rear shocks.

[Norniron]

If the bar is hollow,stick the screwdriver through it and u can adjust your carbs

[MikeM]

ahh the screwdriver does fit through...  sticks out about 10mm

thought it might have been a  home made tappet adjuster ?

8mm socket with long screwdriver going through

[LesterPiglet]

That's a carb adjuster that is pretty common, even down to the screwdriver colours.
The curved one may also be for adjusting the headstock.

07908-4220100 i think or could be 07908-460-0200  which is the superceeded  one from the 500.

Both are still available according to Dave Silver but over £30

I just bought a Honda Common Tools manual off ebay if you wait till that arrives i will see what it tells us and if possible scan it to CD

[AshimotoK0]

Anyone got one of these ?

Wasn't there also something called a Souriai (or similar spelling) tester too?

That wouldn't look out of place in an early 70's recording studio!

[Bryanj]

Would have been an even nicer find, if I had found it before the auction ended    . I have my own electronics company so no probs fixing it I reckon.

Oddjob,
You are a wealth of memories for me.Was it the same for you the snap on man appeared once a week and you could buy on the weekly from him?Christ seems like eons ago.I had to do it that way as a mechanics wage was shit.Good tools life long guarantee even if you had belted the crap out of a screwdriver.
Cheers

That is a lot of tools Oddjob. I have a three stack system with 15 draws and still have trouble closing it. Never bought from snip-on. Always used Britool. Mechanics only bought snip-on because they could pay weekly. A bit like the Avon lady
