Proto Tools Socket Holder -- Before & After Cleaning



Looks like this socket holder was part of a set of tools for a specific box?  (box no. 5493)


The swing away handle is a little bit bent along it's length.

The larger end of the socket holder is pretty bent.



The handle is a little bent on this end, as well as the end of the box wall that's closest to the end.







After some light cleaning (didn't want to take off too much more of the red paint).

Used some steel wool to clean the Proto Tools plate.


Using a small hammer, straightened out the bent ends of the box and the handle.  Turned out pretty good.








Had a few 3/8" sockets handy.  They're not Proto but will do for now.  They fill up about 1/2 the length of this pretty long socket holder.
