Very Rusty WW2 Wrench Restoration. A find from the battlefield 

Very impressive work! I thought it was impossible, but you did it.

Getting that disassembled was impressive. Too bad the thumb nut broke.

I really had my doubts that this could be restored. You've got some mad skills my friend! 👍

This was really frozen !! Very nice work I say great job getting it apart. Even after all that rust and it being frozen it still works !! 👍👍 Nice work !!

Amazing job 🎉🎉 great restoration !

THAT was amazing! You just don’t give up! 👍😎👍

Maybe WW1, I’m 90 years old and that configuration was ancient when I was a kid. Crescent Wrench would be WW2.

That looked impossible, amazing restoration, thankyou.

Well done my friend, from, Bayamo, Cuba

What you achieved, with what you had to start with is nothing short of outstanding 🎉

You gave it a whole new useful life. Very nicely done!

Did yiu find any makers marks on it? Thanks for restoring this part of history!

Brilliant restoration

Again you have surpassed all expectations!!! You were able to make that sleeping wrench wake up and get back to work!!! Outstanding skill sets!!! Well done!!!

Beautiful restoration mister well done

Great job, excellent result.

So beautiful a restoration❤!

Thought it was unsaveable. Well done.

Amazing Restoration 👍🏻👍🏽👍🇬🇧🇬🇧

WOW..Great job

Nice work as always. Such a wonderful restoration 😊😊

Não achei que seria possível ; parabéns !

Amazing.

Just curious. Does the metal of the object weaken after all those years of non-usage?

Mis respetos y reconocimiento para usted, señor!!. Tiempo, dinero y mucho esfuerzo fue invertido en esta pieza; dañada en extremo. Obvio el resultado es sumamente reconfortante y bello y, también me queda claro que será meramente decorativa o de exhibición en algún museo... Ya no es operante (al menos no es segura). Ojalá se lograra duplicar en una pieza 100% nueva y comercializarla en escala decente. Yo la verdad, SI compraría una!!. 😊

Bravo!

Time is mouny but you loose your time for this ,,,you can buy this 👍👍👍

That wrench is from a 1920 Harley Davidson tool kit.

Ekdam nya bna diye👌😊

good job bro

love your content, question about the process: at 2:10 why do you use that tool to clean off small sections of rust before doing the electrolysis?

W.D. 40 CAN'T HURT 😮

You gave it a better shot than I would have that’s for sure. You’ve got skills, dedication, and patience. Good work!

AMAZING! When I first saw that I said to myself 'If ReX can get the jaws to open and close I'll take my pants off'. Well, here ya go... I literally took my pants off (and put them back on, naturally.) Possibly your best resto yet. Keep up the good work. Any idea of the maker from that circular mark?

👍

Ключ из набора инструментов для пулемета максима

Now will be left to rust again. Lol

Гайку бы другую, люфт.

I'm a moron. I was like "that will take forever to clean that thing using that little rotary tool.". Then i realized he was just cleaning a contact area for the electrolysis. Lol

Це стальні нерви потрібно мати , щоб такі побиті часом речі реставрувати.

Super jest to odrestaurowane ten stary zabytkowy klucz pozdrawiam serdecznie 👍👍👍👍

Does the electrolysis process cause the water to boil?

👍💪👏

А был ли смысл его восстанавливать?

Sandblast!!

I just wonder if he turn and looked at

Вітаю з початком зварювальних робіт!

Pertect!

Restaurada chave inglesa 🪛😉

😂😂 at first it looks like a toast biscuit. Even that color..😅

You clearly have a lot of time on your hands

I reckon that nut and thread will always be a mite loose, but that last nut had to give in 😅 Working wrench from the bench!

Маєш терпіння друже.. я б для себе зробив би молоток з опльоткою ручки і набагато частіше б його використовував ніж цей ключ. .

А чому завжди початкове очищення робите на суху? Чому б не замочити артефакт в гарячій воді з миючим засобом і почистити його з водою?

I do believe that you should consider other techniques, instead of the electrolysis, wire brushes and cold bluing combination, that you are using every time... A muriatic acid solution for rust removal, followed by abrasive blasting and finally zinc powder coating, would be way more interesting and I believe would produce a very nice result!

Респект що в дії показуєш інструмент

.то уже больше для красоты, чем пользоваться

Five minutes in the sand blaster and the job would have been done .

Догадувався, що цей ключ буду на реставрації😀

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Some persons don’t know what restoration mean.

корозія металу🤘🤘🤘🤘

😢no 😮no😮

I wonder what this wrench was used for in war.

what a massive waste of time and energy, it looks terrible and is useless

Not really as impressed with this restoration as I had hoped. Sorry, 😢

ALL BS MY FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!! AND WHY WASTE TIME ON IT!!!!!!! IT"S CHEAPER TO BUY A NEW ONE!!!!!!!!!!!
