Description: Up For Sale: REES MFG Co(?) Vintage Antique Gear Shaft Puller Tool Automotive Industrial Farm Mystery Tool - This tool is labeled "REES" "PAT APLD FOR" - Red painted finish - I enjoy the research and discovering unidentified items; this tool has not only stumped me, but plenty of learned guys I have shown it to - If anyone viewing this has any idea, please share :) From my research, my best guess is it is from the company REES Manufacturing Co., of Pittsburg, PA, formerly Iron City Products Co. - They changed the name to Rees in 1921. Rees was known for their "Double Worm Gear Drive Jack" -- Admittedly, I am still somewhat of a noob with old tools, as my expertise (day job) is in vintage firearms and parts -- that said, I am told this is some type of Puller, for pulling seals off of a shaft. Some have opined, it may have been a speciality tool that came in a tool-kit with the purchase of some type of heavy machinery like a tractor, large truck, or perhaps industrial farm or fence building equipment. The fact that I have yet to positively ID this device tells me it is possibly quite rare... perhaps its value is actually priceless and should be donated to a museum? Whatever it is, it is heavy-duty, weighing in at 2 lbs 13.5 oz. Overall condition as seen in photos; displaying wear commensurate with age, paint chipping on the high points, and notably, it appears one of the two (rotating) grabbing-teeth (connected by way of peened pins) has lost a small portion on the end - on the other side, this piece is curved over which allows it to rest inside the bottom notch (which stops the piece from rotating). I imagine these pieces were meant to be replaced after seeing so much use. The center rod piece is actuacted by the center arm which receives tension from a large spring - the spring appears to still have a fair amount of strength.
