Making T-Handle Hex Wrenches 

I worked for a Paper Mill, & they had an Envelope Folding Division. Setting up and Adjusting those Machines was a specialized Skill. The "Adjusters" Requested 16" long 5/16 T Handle Hex Wrenches. Made Them by the Hundreds from 4140 .

It’s so awesome to wake up to this video. Of all the knife makers on RU-vid, I’m most fond of this channel and Walters occasional dead pan sense of humor and level headed non condescending style of narrating. Cheers!

Its 4am in Australia and a very good video during my coffee. Nice gift for your son. My dad made me some tools for my birthday each year. I still have them all. He will love them.

Always the professional. He’ll love them for life.

Love is building a custom tool kit for your kid!

I was going to make a set myself, I don't have a mill and was concerned about accuracy, I think I'll try a collet block on the belt grinder table, thanks Walter.

Beautiful work, as always.

Thanks, that is a great project Walter. ✌

Awesome projects

If I got a toolbox like that the hardening quality (which i'm certain is really good here) of the tools would never be tried. To nice of a tool set to be used :)

“Dad of The Year” 🥇

Like the way he says "Whack"....

Just took a look at your knife website. There's a serious problem there. My cart is empty...

beautiful! i wish my dad was this amazing. all i ever got was grounded for my birthdays

I don't have a milling machine or a lathe but I do have a belt sander and a homemade Freon tank forge, so here's a thought. Get the appropriate size rod, sand it down to size a little larger than the opening on the cap bolt, screw, whatever, then take the fastener and clamp it in the vise. Heat the end of the rod to a yellow heat or so, may take some experimenting, then drive it down into the opening of the fastener. I wouldn't get too crazy with the hammer. I'm sure it wouldn't be as pretty as yours but it would probably do in a pinch. Thoughts?

Whats the name or seller of this 5c collet?

Awesome, Good Dad!

Beautiful job Walter - but the only suggestion I would have made is to INCREASE the length of the Hex area so Jake has room to re-grind the face to "sharpen" the working edge as it gets worn. I'd have done about an inch. YES - you have a Mill and could always recut more area, but I believe doing it upfront would have been the ticket. Just saying......

I need a 3mm one that is 15 in long!!!! To tighten/loosen the carb clamps on a yamaha fz1😖😖😖

You must be kidding, Your son will the proud owner of this set, he will treat it well, all visitors will be shown it, more than once, but the first thing he will do, is to go and buy some tools to use in his daylie work, he will only use it if the other tools fail, and the hardware shop is closed. When he passes this to his firstborn, there is probably not a scratch on them.

They're nice and everything, but you can get a full set of bondhus t handles for like $25 made in the usa with a lifetime warranty.

There is no nonhardable steel. Carbon can be added to any steel, not hard just a bit time consuming.
