Hi Mark - I always thought those were called Monkey Wrenches....  If that
one is metric (versus SAE) it is worth quite a lot!  ;o)

Those terminals are nuts!  Straps to the back of any Marine....
BTW, a guy who worked with us up here at EG&G left to start up a bubble
memory company when that technology first emerged.  He did quite a lot of
industrial controls work with them - pretty bullet proof in a tough
environment.  I'm sure your Dad knew him - Bob Nelson..  While with us he
developed a space-qualified PDP-8 that flew in the Skylab mission back
then..Life Sciences lab....
