Monday Mystery, Unknown multitool


 Here's an old agricultural-type multitool in new or little-used condition. M 215 EE is the only marking. No manufacturer name is provided but a Worthpoint entry suggests it is a tool for a seed drill made by Thomas Mfg. of Springfield Ohio. That seems to be the only online reference to this tool. Can we confirm the manufacturer name?

Update. What looks like a hammer, is actually a hex socket.

  1. Probably a good reason it’s practically unused.

  2. If you search "M215EE wrench" without spaces there are a number of them out there along with a number of guesses but nothing definitive. The right end does look like a gas bottle wrench but not the left end (who would put a hammer on a gas bottle wrench?) and there's one out there painted green so they're calling it a John Deere but who knows.

  3. Wait maybe that's a hex (socket) wrench and not a hammer? If it is, then maybe it is a gas bottle wrench. One of the auctions says the wrench shipped with Craftsman welders but I looked in a couple of catalogs and while they did ship with wrenches I didn't see one that looked like the left end of that one.

  4. I believe you are correct, that is a hex socket, not a hammer. I've added the detail to the post.
