Hi Christina!!!! I know you have a real appreciation for tools and antiques! This one was really fun and very rewarding! Thanks so much!!!!!

[@RobertBosworth]

Amazing transformation! Good hint about wire brushing during the vinegar soak. I'll try that next time. I really enjoyed the pin manufacture too.

[@denniswhite166]

I just did my first vinegar soak on some small hand tools. I had the problem SC mentioned. Now I know what to do for my hack saw refurbish. I bought the hacksaw for $2 at a junk store I can't wait to finish up some Spring chores I have to do around the house so I can start the refurbish this hack saw.

[@ScoutCrafter]

I have yet to try the other rust removal chemicals, I have found vinegar to work very well... The brushing during the soak makes a huge difference! Those small stainless hand wire brushes work just great! Thanks Robert!!!!

[@ScoutCrafter]

Hi Eric! Yes! I have found that the difference is usually the amount of time it takes.. Most acid, chemical, electrolysis.... Wind up looking similar, it just gets rid of the surface rust so you can get to work with the abrasives! =) Thanks so much!

[@literoadie3502]

WOW! This is right up there with my all time favorite videos of yours, heck, call it of all time! Really nice how that vinegar bath works. I'll have to try it. Thanks!

Your passion for restoring tools is an inspiration! I have a thrift store by me that sells a bunch of old tools. I like going there more then the big box stores to buy tools, because you never know what you'll find. I have been slowly building up my collection of old tools and taken a couple rusty relics and transformed them into tools that feel great to use. So thank you for the videos, the passion, and all the information you give out on your channel.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Many of the older tools are unmatched by what they sell today! The best part about buying them now is we can afford them!! Years back these tools were expensive!!!!!!

[@bertalicea2397]

You know John my wife asksd me just other day "when are you going to have enough tools?" so I invited her to watch your channel. Now she understands that the right tools for the job is a must! The resto of this wrench is amazing and the way you walk us through the resto is awesome, thank you for another great video! 👍 👍

[@ScoutCrafter]

Hi Bert! LOL It's hard to explain why you need another hammer when you have over 100... LOL Hand tool collecting is such a low cost hobby compared to some other extravagant ones! Perfect example is look how much fun we had with this one dollar wrench!? The key is not to get caught up with "collectable" tools! =) Thanks so much Bert!!!!

Hello RF! You are so right! Back in service for another 60 years!! =) Thanks!!!!!!

[@nn2380]

What a fantastic restoration, and educational too! A couple of questions for you: 1) Now that the tool is restored, before you put it away in your collector's chest, do you hit it with Carnauba Cleaning wax, or with oil? (for rust protection) 2) When you chucked up your homemade pin in the metal lathe, weren't you concerned with the jaws crushing the threads? Or did you just cut off the threaded area that was in the chuck after you were done?

[@ScoutCrafter]

Hello NN! Great questions!!!! Yes I always hit it with Mother's Carnauba after polish. It stops the finger prints from showing! =) As for the pin I wasn't worried about the lathe crushing the threads because like you said I cut off the threaded part that was chucked after the operations! That is the real key to machining, learning the steps to take! So many times I made the mistake of finishing a part then having to hold the finished part in the chuck and damaged it! LOL I am getting much better at looking ahead now! =) Thanks NN!!!!!!!!!

[@InformationIsTheEdge]

So, a dollar, a bolt you already had in your shop and a Boat Load of know-how! Now you have another sweet wrench! Very impressive!

[@alexstools]

Jaw dropper and show stoppper! This thing looks great. These are my favorite restorations indeed making something that looks worthless work and even look good. And in your case, you took it to the next level! I know a great band from Duluth called trampled by turtles, I think you might like 'em too. I believe they will preform in New York soon. O and if you like it I've got a German made Dutch bicycle wrench here with your name on it ;)

[@w9gb]

My best needle-nose pliers (SN56P) & side cutters (S56P) are Diamond Calk (acquired late-1960s) My Dad (veterinarian) had a wide assortment of Diamond tools that he used on farm and with livestock. I acquire New Old Stock Diamond Tools, from that era, when they appear at hardware distributor closings. - Duluth is near the Missabe deposits of iron ore (hematite), so the company had ready access for producing various iron/steel alloys (DiamondAlloy). Sadly, the original family sold the company in 1981. By 1994, Cooper Tools closed the operations and demolished the buildings in 1996. The brand name is no longer actively used by Apex Tool Company.

Nice repair/restore, you do good work! Personally think the adjustable wrench is the devils tool, a monument to the God of scrapped knuckles, and rounded over bolt heads.
