1931 Tool kit screwdriver Did Stanley manufacture some of these ribbed handle screwdrivers for Ford?
|
Re: 1931 Tool kit screwdriver There were no manufacturer markings on the screwdriver, so it might have been possible but I have never heard exactly who made them.

Re: 1931 Tool kit screwdriver I could not say whether they did or not but I can say that the Stanley screw driver of the model A era seem to all be round shank. They have similar handles & ferules but the shank is round. The Ford screw drivers I've seen that were identified as being from Model As have a square shank all the way from the blade to the tip of the handle.

Re: 1931 Tool kit screwdriver Page 17 - 4 of Judging standards revised 2016, picture shows round steel blade, on occasion stamped with a "B" indicating the manufacturer. I have been unable to find any information on who manufactured the screw driver.

Re: 1931 Tool kit screwdriver Thanks everyone. The screwdriver I have has "Stanley No 20 Made in USA" stamped on the ferrule and no rivet so I assume it is incorrect for a Model A. It also has a ribbed wooden handle. Were they made with a ribbed handle or were they all round? Thanks

Re: 1931 Tool kit screwdriver Ribbed.

Re: 1931 Tool kit screwdriver Handles not heavily ribbed, but subtle.
You have it easy to find & identify. Try finding a Canadian one which were a bit different! The 'driver was eliminated from the Canadian toolkit in late '30. |
Re: 1931 Tool kit screwdriver The screwdriver rotowrench describes may be a Model T one.

Re: 1931 Tool kit screwdriver The square shank may have been Model T but the Model T didn't have them for the whole run due to the driver on the pliers handle making it redundant in the 20s I know that Ford did have several companies that supplied tools to them but I don't know about the screwdriver. The model T screwdriver was shorter than the Model A types.
Tool kits were supplied right on up into the mid to late 30s with few changes except the addition of part numbers on some of the tools. A lot of the ones out there may be of later manufacture than Model A. This link may be Model A or later. https://www.worthpoint.com/worthoped...river-old-tool |

Re: 1931 Tool kit screwdriver I have 4 ford screwdrivers only 1 has the B. Guess I am lucky to have that many.
