    You did a great job cleaning up the wrench but I believe the most amazing thing about this video is watching you vacuum a cat without it tearing your hand off. Keep up the good work. Cheers!

      Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Much appreciated. I don't know why but the cat seems to love being vacuumed. He is a very strange. Check out my other video, the cat appears at the end.

    Bahco is the only brand of adjustable wrench I'll buy, I love their 8" series with the speed wrench on the handle and wide opening jaws, they open as far as the average 10" adjustable wrench. Good to see you got this old beauty looking good again, all old tools like these should be cherished because we won't see tools of that quality too much in the future.

      I spent so so much time on this that is quite possible lol 🤪 way too much hand sanding involved in this project.
