I have an old Walden 1/2" ratchet but the selector is different. It has the same handle design. You're going to like it. The gears are strong like the S-K ratchets and they will handle a lot of torque. Nice clean up DJ.

Looks like my Walden ratchet except mine is shiny from probably not being used a lot. Can't get it open. The ends of the screws looks like they got flatten so I can only unscrew it so far before it stops. Don't know anything about axes but I remember seeing a blue head one on Marketplace for sale cheap. If that was a Sweden ax that person who was selling it must not have known the value of it

It depends on the brand on how much it is eBay has all different kinds of crescent wrenches starting from 30 to 36 to 40 to 50 dollars $60 brand new ones brand names all the way up to 101 they even have huge snap-on once for 35 to $40 but it depends on what you want

You don't use an impact wrench on stuff that's rusted stuck coz 9 times out of 10 you're going to break it what you need is penetrating lubricant like 3 in 1 oil or soaked it again in more rust remover then take a hammer and lightly tap it can you keep that processed up until it moves sometimes you can heat it up sometimes I've always if it still doesn't move after soaking it soak it again they also have some bolt penetration rust remover sometimes that works sometimes 3 and 1 oil works WD-40 doesn't always work but I've used it rust remover called 911 rust remover and that stuff works pretty good but you have to just remember to be patient and will eventually move you just got to be patient when my dad passed away I got his tools good condition on a lot of them but there was some towards the back of the garage that were really rusted bad I thought about throwing away and I said no wait a minute I really don't like doing that so I heard about this rust remover 911 rust remover so I got some put it in there and I let it soak overnight because they were so rusted you could barely see the adjuster call the next morning they came out really good they were shiny but they were pitted so I used to file in a Dremel tool I took as much of the pits that I could out I got some chrome paint and painted it and it looks beautiful still a few tiny little pits but not that many but anyway awesome video keep up the good work play keep the videos coming

Rust remover 911, looking that up now! I do need to take my time, but I work a lot and try to finish too fast, I have very few tools from my dad because of the fire, & that's why I started cleaning tools because I needed them for work, could not pay full price at the time so used junk it is!

Sorry to hear that a fire that's terrible I hope nobody was hurt or died in that fire and don't ever worry about what anyone thinks or says about using old looking tools l use them and when l have time l clean a few at a time so l don't get overwhelm because cleaning that rust can drive you crazy especially if there's a lot of rusted tools to be cleaned and my dad had a lot of tools some of the tools that he used all the time he kept fairly clean because those ones were in the rollaway tool boxes man tool boxes but a hell of a lot were stored in an old shed in the backyard and it leaked when it rain so it was just about little over half of the shed had Rusty tools and l did try to clean them in one day and telling myself how hard can this be after about 20 tools I was about to just throw everything away and then a friend of mine told me about rust 911 and told me the same thing I told you to relax and take my time and that worked for me so l have been doing do that for about two months now and l have over half of the tools done there's three boxes left it's a lot of work but it has been worth it because there was some antique tools in there but now look good hanging on my garage wall l don't use them because that's two much work l love power tools LOL so just remember take your time and don't let rust drive you crazy like it almost did to me LOL those tools are not going anywhere and love the video l hope you keep them coming and I'm new to your channel I'm going to check out more of your videos because you might show me something I know nothing about and check out eBay for tools they have new and used fairly decent prices that's where I got some of my tools I just bought Dr drill bit sharpener in a hard plastic case because l also got a shit load of drill bits out of the rust pile and they all need to be sharpened l got it used for a good price and it works great

Dam so sorry to hear that and that's a hell of a lot to lose l know the feeling well my stuff didn't burn in a fire but about 15 years ago l lost all my stuff because I married the spawn from hell it was all good at first but after 15 years of being married to my wife all of the sudden out of nowhere she started to turn into the spawn of Satan she started drinking it became more and more than every day and she wouldn't tell what her problem was and her parents and friends didn't know what was wrong with her because she was turning on them too but anyways I came home from work she was drinking and crying I went over to her and hugged her she pushed me away she fell down the next thing I know the cop show up they take me to jail for domestic violence and that never happened but they didn't care what I had to say because she was crying so by the time l fought the case and won I spent 2 weeks in jail because I wasn't going to pay to get bailed out to damn expensive but when I did get out and got back to the house the house was empty she had sold everything and she was gone and there was nothing I could do because I was married to her and the only good thing is I ended up with the house so the same day I had to do a little bit of shopping because I had nothing to wear nothing to eat nothing to sleep on so I do know the feeling of what you went through but no fire just a spawn of Satan LOL and I forget who said this quote { why do we fall to learn how to pick ourselves back up} l think that's how it was said LOL so l hope the best for you and want to see what your going to do in your next video
