Dick;

I'm partial to a few Bonney wrenches & sockets that I've accumulated
over the years.

How many of you have developed "favorite tools"?  Through the years I've
acquired a foot locker full of odds and ends.  Even though I have
several new sets of combination wrenches, open end wrenches, and sockets
neatly hanging on the wall, whenever I need a 9/16" combination wrench,
I reach for this old "Billings" wrench that I found under the seat of a
Model "A" Ford in 1958.  Same goes for a deep well 9/16".  I have an old
beat up Snap On that always finds it's way into my hand rather than one
of the new ones out of the set.  
   
  BTW, does anybody know anything about Billings wrenches?  I love that
wrench and would buy a set if I could ever find them.  One friend told
me that it was part of a tool kit for a Model "B" Ford, but I don't
know.
