Your video reminded me how my 8" vanadian chrome adjustable wrench is my favorite tool of all time. What a clever design. I never knew there was a bolt-like inner piece keeping the jaws aligned. Ingenuity and finely crafted to fit the hand, plus I have countless plumbing and automotive projects completed. Thank you!

Those buffer wheels are fantastic to have around. Great job. You gave much younger tools some vintage charm.

I do enjoy watching a good sandblasting very much. Seeing old, tarnished or out right rusted metals come back to life is special. Seeing that "as new" gleam is fantastic. Once restored they deserve to be treasured.

This is probably among my most favourite. Such tools serve us well and they deserve the pristine restoration you give them. Keep up the great work!

This guy really does a great job. He is an expert at using the right tool at the right time. Great video.

I charge $30/hr to do the work with the wrench, and this wrench is $80 - that's being generous - and he probably spent 3+ hours to fix it. By fixing this wrench rather than buying a new one I would lose money. The saving grace for him is that the videoing of the restoration is this guys job. Hell he probably just put a band new one in a salt water bath. Buying a new one rather than restoring isnt necessarily lazy. Not taking care of the tool in the first place is.

Wow! That was impressive! 👏
