Here's one for you guys:
I found this inside one of my walls while doing some home improvements. I have no clue what it is. House was built in 1908 and this was at the bottom of an old plaster wall. Thoughts?

It's a plugging chisel. Pretty old. Here are some newer ones.

For removing grout from between tiles. I used to have and use one looked just like your pic.

Here's one that is quite similar at Home Depot:

Due to the mushrooming on the end, I’m thinking it’s a little heavier then grout removal. I have dozens of these cold chisels in various sizes and shapes. They work great for small area and/or tight space work. Here’s a set from Snap-On I found for a quick pic:

Its actually a Cope or Cape Chisel.

Its Used to cut groves in metal.

Like Keyways in round shafts.

I've used a cape chisel to remove broken bolts that are flush with the surface. The action when struck will turn them and not dig into the broken bolt. The offset angle of the head directs the force in the direction of rotation and not skip out or dig in. I sometimes grind a punch with the same scallop to achieve the same rotation action on smaller broken bolts. Not that I break many bolts its just a nice solution to have on hand. That and PB Blaster can work wonders.

You guys are amazing! Thank you.

Exactly. One side for gm one for ford

Gotta be an old guy to recognize a,distributor wrench. I have a few out in the toolbox

Not quite older than dirt..... yet

Well it has a USB cable so some kind of scanner.

Hmmmmm....Looks like a 1911 38 super Magazine under the clear plastic. As far as the rest of it, No idea....

If only there was a dedicated CNC machine that spit out AR lowers..

Could be, sure wasn't back in the day of the Door knob and Hardware in the Background though. I would guess 1920-1935.

Rix?
