Small Douglas

Looks like a scaled down early 20's motorcycle, Dad looks very proud. Wonder what the story is.

W57 Whitworth wrench

 I found this made in Canada Whitworth wrench and wondered what the W57 stands for. It's not the manufacturer's name, we gave a few similar wrenches a hard squint and we think it may be a Gray product. W57 may refer to a designated wrench size, 3/8 and 7/16 BSW, we also found a W59 1/2 and 9/16 BSW (British Standard Whitworth). Any guesses?

Update, another one! Drew sends in a picture of his W55  3/8 7/16 BS (no W). Things are not getting clearer.

Stanley box scapers

These tools are apparently known as box scrapers or shaving planes. Comparing to pictures on ebay, the lower one is probably a No 70, the upper one with the extra knob, I can't find any info on. More research required.

Camping Hatchet

Lightweight hatchet from Resourceful Redneck. Handle is polyethylene or polypropylene so it is light to carry, not sure I'd want to do any serious chopping with it.

Thanks, Rolf!

Beaver seems to have been in business making marine and industrial motors from about 1905 till the twenties, another company that just disappeared...

 Your guess is as good as mine...
