Description: |
The features include interchangeable jaw faces, a screw adjustment with an adjustment-locking cam, and wood side-plates dovetailed into the handle.
The WALTON screw wrench apparently used incidental details of this patent; the shape of the adjusting worm and rack teeth on the shank, along with jaws not perpendicular to the shank appear in the WALTON wrench marked with this patent date. |
