That's a big wrench! The orange lettering looks great!

[@TomGunnTools]

Thanks, it used a lot of Flitz 👍 lol

[@357magdad]

@@TomGunnTools For big items like that I like to use a buffing/polishing wheel mounted in my hand drill with my Flitz.

Thank you Mick!

My dad still has a black oxide 10 inch Cresent adjustable wrench he bought while he was in the military.Still uses it to this day.I cleaned up one 10 inch adjustable wrench,a Japanese brand I bought in a bag of tools from a goodwill store.Jaw didn't move due to dirt and crud where the jaw moved around in there.Cleaned and oilled it after taking it apart,works fine.

[@TomGunnTools]

Those crescent wrenches were built to last and they made so many different versions of them and not just lengths but also thicknesses. Always appreciate your comments Walter.

That adjustable wrench is huge! Wire wheels and grinders are a tool restorers best friend when it comes to big chunks of metal like this. The orange paint gives it a nice touch of character, and looks better than brand new. Great restoration Tom! BTW I just received the stickers you sent me in the mail and wanted to say THANK YOU I really appreciate it!

[@TomGunnTools]

Hi Cody, glad you received them!

[@bigvicsworkshop]

Very Nice - Johnfix is a super nice gentleman! The 18" are nice to work with i think - i just did one a few weeks back - 18" Proto - I enjoyed it.. Outstanding job! Have a gooden Vic

[@TurningsbyTurner]

That came out beautifully Tom. I would still consider that a restoration! Good choice on the orange lettering! 👍

[@TomGunnTools]

Thanks Turner

Nice job, the painted lettering makes the difference

[@TomGunnTools]

Thanks, wasn’t sure what color to do!

[@stephenO1870]

[@TomGunnTools]

Thanks Stephen!

[@jacksshed2450]

Nice spanner! You should see my 30" one!

[@TomGunnTools]

Wow Jack that must weigh a ton!

I recently purchased a 12in Wright adjustable wrench in chrome. Nicest, tightest adjustable I've seen or owned. Made in USA to very tight tolerances makes it function extremely well. I got it on sale so I am happy to have it.

[@TomGunnTools]

Very well made for sure!

[@johnduff6436]

Outstanding work on the wrench!

[@TomGunnTools]

Appreciate it John!

[@daleatchley2457]

[@Knifeaddictdillon]

Every time I go to the flea market I'm buying adjustable wrenches to clean up I got atleast 20 but my biggest one is a 15 inch Proto I need a 18 & 24

Nice wrench I’ll have to watch it later seems like I have been doing a ton with adjustable wrenches I tore like 5 apart this week

That’s great Noah sounds like you have been busy!

Beautiful - nice work

Appreciate you checking out the video!

[@mikebettis1804]

Great videos and I binge watch them! I’m curious what brand and where you get your resin discs and wheels?

[@RESTORATIONOFSCRAPMETAL]

Cool job 👍

[@TomGunnTools]

Thank you!

[@frankg3072]

Tom I would like to purchase the fiber wheel for the angle grinder but because of the shape of the hole the way it’s configured (concave or convex) I wouldn’t know how to attach it. I saw the fiber wheels on Amazon but didn’t want to purchase them before I knew how to attach it. Thanks

[@TomGunnTools]

Hi Frank make sure you het the right size. Mine is 4 1/2 inch. Other wise it goes on the same way as a flap disk. This is the one I got 5-Pack 4.5inch Nylon Fiber Polishing Wheel Sanding Abrasive Disc Buffing Wheels for Angle Grinders 115mm x 22mm www.amazon.com/dp/B07V2ZNGXX/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_EWJMFR6JAP4J2G64VMJ9

This is why you need to get good tools it will last you forever

[@TomGunnTools]

Absolutely!

[@robertlevine2152]

I notice you soak your tools in Evaporust prior to disassembly. It seems that the Evaporust would be more effective if you soaked the arts after disassembly. Overall, you did a beautiful job. Now, you need a new toolbox to hold that monster. Bob

[@TomGunnTools]

Thanks Bob!

[@ratchetwise440]

Go to Brownells and buy a bottle of Ospho blue...

[@bruceschweigert6457]

Really rusty? Looks like just a little surface rust,they are available up to 3 or 4 ft. Coes made an adjustable stilson type wrench that was 6ft long and weighed something like 165 lbs!!!

[@michaeljenkins3987]

Problem with this video is you talk too much

[@TomGunnTools]

Thanks
