Re: My GMTK'S Still Building
Hi All
Here are a few more pictures I would like to share with you. These are extra additions to my sets.
This is set #4 Just in case I can't find the circle DC/X 3/8 X 7/16 to complete a set still looking!
Your Thoughts on these brake wrenches ?
Thanks
Dave

Re: My GMTK'S Still Building
Congrats on completing the Barcalo no ISN set, Dave! That's a great collection.
I rather like the Barcalo combo wrench (-es?) in your roll from December...if that whole roll-full is in the same condition as the one you've shown, those would be cool to use when working. I find combo wrenches are (generally) so much more useful than the DOEs which were issued, but I guess ORD was trying to save steel (2 sizes/wrench with DOEs, instead of just 1 on a combo). Just one of those little things which helps to respect what the WW2 GIs went through that much more.

Hi,
You are building a nice looking set. Don't we all wish the BB wrenches were falling off trees (okay not literally! ).

Re: My GMTK'S Still Building
Hi All
42 Peep
I wish they were easy to find, my no ISN set took me about five years to complete but well worth the wait !
Phil
I will post my box just as soon as I can make up my mind on which GMTK I will set up as my #1 kit with the additions.
Thanks Guys
Dave

Re: My GMTK'S Still Building
Hi All
These 3 arrived this weekend from eBay
The bottom 2 have the ink stamp worn off, by the look of the shaft I am pretty sure they were. The one with the chipped end I will weld some metal back on.
I did find the pad stamped BB 11/16 X 9/16 wrench today 2 more to go to complete that set.
Thanks for looking
Dave
