      It appears to me there's a dot before the M? Try contacting these guys using the issue form, and tell them you have a wrench they don't have listed..

      Hello, dav2n01! I checked out alloy-artifacts.org; great site! Unfortunately, they no longer accept email from individuals - instead, they direct them to various forums (which I will do). Thanks for the response!

      If you use the trouble form and tell them you have a wrench mot listed, they may reply to you. I had a Williams Superrachet that was not listed and they replied to me. It's worth a try..either way, make sure to update us if you find any information..

      Also...there was another wrench that was marked similar to yours on ebay, but no description..

      I contacted alloy-artifacts as you suggested (trouble form) and they did, in fact, respond! They can only assume that the wrench was custom made for a particular end user, and that the "W.F.SCR.M." denoted a specific use (and not a manufacturer). They noted that major manufacturers, such as Williams and Billings, often made such wrenches. If that's the case, maybe someone can figure out what "use" is being abbreviated...

      Thanks again for your great suggestion!

      Very interesting..the other wrench is listed as a #2. Maybe you should buy it and keep them together?

      Here's my rare Superrachet that I found, in case you're interested..
