Restoring a 12" RIDGID pipe wrench!

Got love a 1-dollar pipe wrench, and it is a RIDGID, I made a good usable tool!

Glad you enjoyed it

That was well worth the time. A Ridgid 12" pipe wrench costs between $35-$50. Nicely done DJ

Another nice one in the books, DJ! I've recently restored a couple of Ridgid pipe wrenches (in the past year or so...)

[@djstoolrestorations]

Cool, thanks!

explain the 3 in one oil, next video...nice use of the vice, really old tool, to fix an old tool. Nice...!!!!

3 in 1 oil was originally made in the late 1800's to clean, lubricate, and protect bicycle chains. I use it for a lot of things around the shop.

[@djstoolrestorations]

I did not know that, cool!

I am sorry about the delay in my reply, working a lot, I use the 3 in 1, as a darkening agent, it seems to make the bluing darker and gives it more of a sheen, also I set the tool out side in the full sun to bake in the sun, it seems to help!

No longer shop Walmart.

Not to many places left to shop!
