Gordon R Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Bought some tools in Huddersfield last week. After cleaning the top box and taking out the tools which I wanted, I came across a few items which I was unable to identify. One of my lads mates identified the car door skin crimping tools and the hole punchers - for welding sheet metal panels or car wings. There were a few decent sets of feeler gauges, but the purpose of one set eludes me. Moore and Wright Sheffield feelers, but 10.5 inches long. Any ideas as to who would use these?

Me matt Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 One of my lads mates identified the car door skin crimping tools and the hole punchers - for welding sheet metal panels or car wings. That tools called a 'joggler'. Spent many a happy year welding up old Volkswagens with joggler in hand. The branded ones are worth good money.
