Fantastic old tools! Our old time neighborhood carpenter born in 1894, had several monkey wrenches like this in his wooden carpenter tool box. I had opportunity to assist him back in 1964, at age 11 in building our back yard storage room. No electric tools, all old school hammer,s, squares, levels, shovels, handsaws and nails. He definitely mentored me in appreciation of use, care, and respect for all hand tools and basic carpentry building. I was fascinated with his well cared carpentry tools. He was an older gentleman by then, diligent, patient, deliberate, respectful, and slow on ladders and heavy lifting, so i was his assistant and gopher-get-all. Thanks Mr. Castro!! RIP!! Thanks for the video and bringing me back some joyful memories!
Thanks for that paint tip. I am restoring a Record Imp vise and will use that technique to bring out the lettering. Also, I found a Fitzall in a box of spanners that someone gave me. It is in mint condition and works great. I use it regularly as an emergency spanner.
Hello MJ! I love those vises! I hope you check out my buddy Armando's beautiful restoration and tell him I said hello! =D Thanks so much! ruclips.net/video/1oXEr36D11s/видео.html
dear scoutcrafter..... I found a wrench like this in my father in law's tools after my husband died. I used a combo of vinegar and salt, and my results were nearly as good as yours. I soaked it overnight and used a wire brush oiled it and dried it. amazing...cleaned several of the rusted tools that way,
Thank you for sharing the history of the tool! I see many restorers that don't really appreciate the history of the items they restore and for me, that's the best part of hand tools, the human connection! I'm subbed up for more! =)
American ingenuity will never cease to amaze me!! You guys had so manydifferent tool manufactures making so many different kinds of tools... Awesome job man!! By the way loved the Dremel video, still need to go back and comment there!!
The funny thing is many of the early tool makers were all European immigrants! They learned there trade in Europe and came to the US to open a business and thrived!!! Thanks!!!!
Hello Tony- This tool turned out to be a pleasant surprise! Not only the way it came out but surprisingly how well it worked! Great conversation piece if nothing else! Thanks very much!
Once again, beautiful piece. Im very pleased to see the consistancy of your postings. Its always nice to see a new video before I call it a night. Thank you for your time and knowledge
Hello Wayne! You know it doesn't take long or a lot of money to build up a really nice tool collection that you can be proud of! It's really a lot of fun as you know!!!!! Thanks so much!!!!!!
Hello tumbo1984! Awesome!!! The Chrome-moly tools clean up fantastic! It's like the rust never penetrates the surface! You're in for a lot of fun!!! Thanks very much!!!! 😃👍
Found one of these today, typed it in to find info, and why am I surprised your video popped up. Well you got one more thumbs up,dont spend it all in one place! Haha.
Hello Tony- It’s amazing how we never seen such a nifty wrench! You would think by how well it worked we would have seen more examples floating around! Thanks! 😃👍
Hi Felix, There are some really beautiful rare wrenches out there but there are also some guys with deep pockets that make them mostly unaffordable to me... Thanks much!
I know what you mean about the pricing. I'm definitely not willing to pay that kind of money. Someone I know is holding on to a '30s band saw for me. Needs a little work, but that's all a pat of the fun. Plus I need a band saw! It'll probably be my next big project. Never done a band saw before. Now I just need to figure out what to do with the 8 vises I restored over the winter. I'm only keeping 4 of them; only so much room in the shop/garage. Would love to find a nice older drill press, too. Hate to buy a new one.
It's seems very rare wrench.Good job again sir...1908's wrench...Wow...beautiful red wrench like a old traditional song. :) and I like FitzAll brand name :)
Hello Kadir! After playing around with this nifty little wrench I'm surprised more of us haven't heard of it before! You think there would be more of them around! Thanks very much!!!!
Hello Heru! Those old Chrome-moly tools had such great steel that they don't get all pitted up when rusted and really polish up nicely!!! Thanks very much!!!!
Hi Jim! I try to keep the videos about 5 min but I knew I had to add the lettering detail so this one went a little longer... It looks so much nicer with the letters not painted... Thanks very much!
Hello Ricopolico! That little wrench tester really works! Lol. You can tell a lot by seeing the wrench actually working! I have some wrenches that look great but perform horribly! Thanks very much!!! 😃👍
i expected it might be finicky on the bolt or have to be set loose, and was surprised actually it can fit as tight as any modern adjustable and come off clean, well worth demonstrating on your bolt tester! with modern materials it could be thinner for modern nuts
Jusb- When researching the wrench I noticed it was made by a few different manufacturers and some of them really skimped on materials and workmanship. When the profit margin takes over things go bad fast! lol!
ive seen one with the same mechanism design but the handle an the jaws didnt have ridges , all flat . had the same wedge design . only seen one around here .
Beautiful! You know I want hammer videos but also had a question. Do you or have you ever restored regular open end box end wrenches? I have some palmera brand ones I’d like to polish up and detail so I was curious if you had any coming up. Thank you for another great video!
Hi Tim! I was looking over some hammers today! Hang in there!!! As for the regular wrenches I have a nice Billings that I forgot where I put it but that would be a nice project! Thanks Tim!!! 😃👍
Awesome! What a beautiful restoration you did. This is a very interesting design. It seams to work well and with the smooth jaw, it would be perfect for chrome fittings. Congrats 👍👍
Yes, you are right about the old timers, they were very smart indeed. I really enjoy watching you restoring old tools. From time to time ( like today) you surprise me with a tool that I have never seen before! Keep up the good work my friend and have a great week.
Another great restoration. Neat wrench. Don't forget about the impact screwdrivers (the ones you whack with a hammer) for screws you are afraid might be stuck.
Hello Metal Butcher! Good tip! I was pleasantly surprised when this machine screw came out like it was put in yesterday! I really swear by the tranny fluid/Acetone penetrating mix! Works great! Thanks very much! 😃👍
Hello Qlimax! Absolutely! The patent date is 1908 however this wrench was most likely made before the 50's. The steel on this wrench is really well made and I am surprised at how nice the wrench works! Thanks!
Hello Pappy! My tools are in a climate controlled area so the polish is more then enough however if I was storing this in a garage or back of a car I would keep it waxed or oiled. The polish really does a good job of rust protection, but in harsh environments a clear-coat of some sort is better but anything you use will be difficult adhering to a polished surface... Thanks!
Hi Scout Crafter : I own a similar wrench made in Germany, nickeled w/black jappanning, don't know who was the first manufacturer !!! but a nice wrench.
Hello norherman! LOL- i just finished a wrench and sprayed it Red and it just didn’t work! I had to remove the paint with stripper and left it natural- I laughed and thought you would get a kick out that! Look for it in a week! Thanks! 😃👍
Hi Scout crafter, love watching your channel and I would like to have a go at doing some restoration projects myself. You said you put the wrench on the furnace for a couple of days after it was painted, I’m assuming this was to harden the paint. Does this mean that you are actually heating the tool or just allowing the paint to cure?
NICE!!!......i love all those vintage tools, for lettering one way iv'e used is not to remove paint, rather, use a pad like what you use, with 1 diff'.......black paint.
yeah, i know........i tend to be a little hard on my tools, but i also enjoy restoring some types and tinkering with others, i'd really like to get my hands on a gas-powered hand drill (the type with a pistol grip and the engine is the type that used to be put in r/c planes and boats.......iv'e got an idea i'd like to try.
Brown and Sharpe is out of Providence RI. I bought a machine vise on eBay, the guy said there was no makers' mark on it, all you could see was a big ''No. 2''. I got it home, started rubbing it down with wire wool and WD-40, and started to see ''Providence RI, USA'' on one side, and ''Brown & Sharpe'' on the other!
Lite Roadie - sorry LR, I just got this!!! Brown and Sharpe made awesome tools!!! Always top of the line!!! If that vise was listed as Brown and Sharpe you would have paid much more!!! 😃👍. Thanks!!!!
Hello Jusb! So many times I look at an old tool and wonder why it fell out of favor so to speak... There's an old expression that says "What's old is new again" meaning that after a while you can reintroduce the same product again with renewed fanfare! I am a real believer in this, I feel that the problem is designers are too busy trying to reinvent the wheel instead of tweaking a good former idea. Here in the States they are making a fortune reintroducing cars from the 60's with new modern drivetrains. I wish the Tractor industry would follow suit. All "monkey" style wrenches seemed to have lost popularity I think because you had to approach the nut from the side instead of from the front and it seems unnatural... who knows? Thanks!
we use adjustable less as people can afford 2,000 sockets and 2,000 wrenches in all the short, deep, angled, wobbly versions , or at least so i see from peoples tool sets, plus most of these wrenches date back before there were rigid or any standard as to nut sizes, youd look just as dumb using shiny snap on sockets on a cart wheel as you would using this on a bmw cylinder head.
ScoutCrafter He does make the Billings, however I am unsure if he is familiar with this wrench. I tagged him in hopes he can make this one as well! Thanks for your skill, and excellent video!
The next time you have a stuck screw, bolt or nut, try candle wax as a penetrant. Just heat the part and lay a candle against it. The wax will penetrate the threads and the lubrication will aid the removal.
my grandfather passed on to me the same type of wrench we are all from London UK it had the name PERRY embosed in an amateur way. Anyone know of a UK factory called PE RRY??
Hello Spider Rico! I am with you 100%! Some people were upset with the Red, they would rather the wrench was rusty! Go figure! Lol. Thanks so much!!!!! 😃👍
If I have a froze up tool that isn't marked up I give that guy a Kerosene bath for a few days. That thinned up oil works its way in and does a great job. This way I don't have to get to rough unnecessarily and mark it up. I'll save the bang ups for when I put that guy to work! Happily! That's why their tools...
Scott H - Absolutely! Kerosene was in every shop years ago! It works great!!! One of my subscribers is a mechanic and he said once a year he takes all his ratchets and puts them in a bucket of tranny fluid for a couple days. He says they work smooth as silk! I use a lot of Kerosene because I collect antique lanterns. When I was a kid my dad would add a cup of Kerosene to the rinse water when washing the car! Thanks again!!! 😃👍
Great looking wrench and it actually seems to work a lot better than I thought it would.
I thought the same thing! I was shocked at how good it worked!!!!

Outstanding! I wish I had a mentor when I was young that was a craftsman... Thanks!
Love vintage tools a lot. I never saw this tool before. Nice restoration and thanks for sharing sir!
Hello Crippleman ! Thanks so very much!!! I'm so glad you liked the video!!! 😃👍
ScoutCrafter You are welcome sir! I inherated from my dad, all German made drop forged vintage tools so i am a lucky guy.
Thanks for that paint tip. I am restoring a Record Imp vise and will use that technique to bring out the lettering. Also, I found a Fitzall in a box of spanners that someone gave me. It is in mint condition and works great. I use it regularly as an emergency spanner.

That's a cool restoration! Nice work and a very eye catching tool to have in your tool bag!
Hello Tony- This tool turned out to be a pleasant surprise! Not only the way it came out but surprisingly how well it worked! Great conversation piece if nothing else! Thanks very much!

Hello tumbo1984! Awesome!!! The Chrome-moly tools clean up fantastic! It's like the rust never penetrates the surface! You're in for a lot of fun!!! Thanks very much!!!! 😃👍

You are an artist.
THANK YOU...for sharing. A different looking wrench.
It works very well! Thanks so much!
Found one of these today, typed it in to find info, and why am I surprised your video popped up. Well you got one more thumbs up,dont spend it all in one place! Haha.
I have never seen this style before. Beautiful restoration as always.
Hello Tony- It’s amazing how we never seen such a nifty wrench! You would think by how well it worked we would have seen more examples floating around! Thanks! 😃👍
too right!!
I've run out of vises to restore. Gotta hit the flea market. Some of these wrenches look really interesting. A beautiful job, as always.
Hi Felix, There are some really beautiful rare wrenches out there but there are also some guys with deep pockets that make them mostly unaffordable to me... Thanks much!

Awesome job on the restoration! Thanks for the patent images at the end!
Bryan, Never heard or saw the wrench before the video! Turns out to be a nice working wrench! Glad you enjoyed! Thanks!!!!
thanks for paint tip good job on wrench
Nice restoration, and nice design too.
Hello DC! It really is a sweet looking wrench when not all rusted up! =) Thanks!
What an awesome wrench!
Very unique wrench, nice find and restoration.
Hi Mike! I can't believe it works as good as it does and we never heard of them! I'm always impressed by the ingenuity of our forefathers! Thanks!
Good tip on how to deal with the lettering, I always thought you sanded the tops of the letters after it dried. Thanks again
Wow really neat.kewl to show exactly how the tool works.
Great work sir...
Interesting wrench and I like the way it came out. Great job!
Hello Carlos! Thanks very much! 😃👍
I follow you my friend I learn day by day thanks I appreciate your job!!!!!
ScoutCrafter you love restoring your tool like i do on my Lanterns. Bobby
Bobby my Brother!!!!! Thanks!!!!
Good job, it looks new, I havent seen a wrench like that . I did a video of my dads tools, which a lot are old. RIP DAD.
Hey Ron! Crazy wrench right!? I know the feeling about missing our Dads... Thanks very much!!!!!!!
It's seems very rare wrench.Good job again sir...1908's wrench...Wow...beautiful red wrench like a old traditional song. :) and I like FitzAll brand name :)
Hello Kadir! After playing around with this nifty little wrench I'm surprised more of us haven't heard of it before! You think there would be more of them around! Thanks very much!!!!
I dont think ıt's any more than that.sir. It's unique.. :)
Amazing.
Thankyou so much!!!!!!!
Gorgeous piece.
Hello Heru! Those old Chrome-moly tools had such great steel that they don't get all pitted up when rusted and really polish up nicely!!! Thanks very much!!!!
You're very lucky to find these gems. I scour flea markets, estate sales, on line, etc and have never come across beauties like these. :)
Nice restore. Thanks for the tip for removing the paint from the lettering. I have been wondering how you do that!
Hi Jim! I try to keep the videos about 5 min but I knew I had to add the lettering detail so this one went a little longer... It looks so much nicer with the letters not painted... Thanks very much!
Very nice work.
Hello Michael, Thanks very much!!! 😃👍
My Uncle had one in his collection, more of my favorite wrenches.
Hi Dale! To be honest I had no idea how this wrench worked but after I finished it I was quite impressed! Pretty cool! Thanks so much!!!!!!!
Very interesting wrench
Thanks Steve! It works very well! I had no idea! Thanks,,,
Nice Job!!
Hundred years, and you made it look like a baby. 👍
You know Juan I was surprised at how well that wrench works! It really works well! Thanks so much my friend!
Back when we made stuff. America . When was the last time anywhere in the northeast built anything? Great restoration
Good job 👍
You should give a tour of your tool collection.
Hello Kopsu! That's a great idea! Thanks very much!
Neat wrench. Thanks for testing it with the ScoutCrafter Mod. 1 Wrench Tester.
Hello Ricopolico! That little wrench tester really works! Lol. You can tell a lot by seeing the wrench actually working! I have some wrenches that look great but perform horribly! Thanks very much!!! 😃👍

This is a very interesting design. It seams to work well and with the smooth jaw, it would be perfect for chrome fittings. Congrats 👍👍
Hello Peter, I never used this type wrench until now and I have to say it's really interesting! Those old timers were very smart! Thanks very much!
Yes, you are right about the old timers, they were very smart indeed.
I really enjoy watching you restoring old tools. From time to time ( like today) you surprise me with a tool that I have never seen before!
Keep up the good work my friend and have a great week.
So cool. Why would anyone dislike this video? lol
Hello N0ENEMIES! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks very much!!! 😃👍
SoTrue.How do you not like? If it is not your thing just let it go, why ding the video?
Would be cool to fill the patent numbers with paint, make stamped text stand out/contrast, really enjoy these videos.
Thanks so much! It's funny this was a early video and I was just getting into better restorations... The wrench works surprisingly well! Thanks!!!!!!
Another great restoration. Neat wrench. Don't forget about the impact screwdrivers (the ones you whack with a hammer) for screws you are afraid might be stuck.
Hello Metal Butcher! Good tip! I was pleasantly surprised when this machine screw came out like it was put in yesterday! I really swear by the tranny fluid/Acetone penetrating mix! Works great! Thanks very much! 😃👍
Love it, this was done right.
Hello Set Qesu! Thankyou very much! 😃👍
I love that tool
Damn this is fun! I'm leaving my tools out in the rain so I can restore them.
LOL!!!!!! After a good restoration they do feel so much better then new!!!! Polished!!!!! =) Thanks!
It should be in a glass cabinet. Gorgeous.
Hello Lifes Journeyman! I really enjoyed this restoration because this wrench is so attractive! Thanks Very much!
Nice restoration LIKED I see the year 1908? Possible?
Hello Qlimax! Absolutely! The patent date is 1908 however this wrench was most likely made before the 50's. The steel on this wrench is really well made and I am surprised at how nice the wrench works! Thanks!
Most excellent as usual. Do you keep the bare metal as polished or spray it with anything to protect from future surface rust?
Hello Pappy! My tools are in a climate controlled area so the polish is more then enough however if I was storing this in a garage or back of a car I would keep it waxed or oiled. The polish really does a good job of rust protection, but in harsh environments a clear-coat of some sort is better but anything you use will be difficult adhering to a polished surface... Thanks!
Hi Scout Crafter : I own a similar wrench made in Germany, nickeled w/black jappanning, don't know who was the first manufacturer !!! but a nice wrench.
Doctor ScoutCrafter where do you find them? And red, such a bright color! Neat. Thank you.
Hello norherman! LOL- i just finished a wrench and sprayed it Red and it just didn’t work! I had to remove the paint with stripper and left it natural- I laughed and thought you would get a kick out that! Look for it in a week! Thanks! 😃👍
Hi Scout crafter, love watching your channel and I would like to have a go at doing some restoration projects myself. You said you put the wrench on the furnace for a couple of days after it was painted, I’m assuming this was to harden the paint. Does this mean that you are actually heating the tool or just allowing the paint to cure?
What state are you from?
How about a little bit of black paint on the engraved words- wipe on and wipe off while wet so it fills in the lettering and makes it pop.
NICE!!!......i love all those vintage tools, for lettering one way iv'e used is not to remove paint, rather, use a pad like what you use, with 1 diff'.......black paint.
Hello Jim! These old tools are so well made, with a little care they will really last a lifetime! Thanks very much! 😃👍
yeah, i know........i tend to be a little hard on my tools, but i also enjoy restoring some types and tinkering with others, i'd really like to get my hands on a gas-powered hand drill (the type with a pistol grip and the engine is the type that used to be put in r/c planes and boats.......iv'e got an idea i'd like to try.
Do you put clear coat on the polished metal?
Mike
Brown and Sharpe is out of Providence RI. I bought a machine vise on eBay, the guy said there was no makers' mark on it, all you could see was a big ''No. 2''. I got it home, started rubbing it down with wire wool and WD-40, and started to see ''Providence RI, USA'' on one side, and ''Brown & Sharpe'' on the other!
Lite Roadie - sorry LR, I just got this!!! Brown and Sharpe made awesome tools!!! Always top of the line!!! If that vise was listed as Brown and Sharpe you would have paid much more!!! 😃👍. Thanks!!!!
that design actually works well, i wonder why no-one uses the same principle now
Hello Jusb! So many times I look at an old tool and wonder why it fell out of favor so to speak... There's an old expression that says "What's old is new again" meaning that after a while you can reintroduce the same product again with renewed fanfare! I am a real believer in this, I feel that the problem is designers are too busy trying to reinvent the wheel instead of tweaking a good former idea. Here in the States they are making a fortune reintroducing cars from the 60's with new modern drivetrains. I wish the Tractor industry would follow suit. All "monkey" style wrenches seemed to have lost popularity I think because you had to approach the nut from the side instead of from the front and it seems unnatural... who knows? Thanks!
we use adjustable less as people can afford 2,000 sockets and 2,000 wrenches in all the short, deep, angled, wobbly versions , or at least so i see from peoples tool sets, plus most of these wrenches date back before there were rigid or any standard as to nut sizes, youd look just as dumb using shiny snap on sockets on a cart wheel as you would using this on a bmw cylinder head.
super tare
Automatic or standard transmission fluid?
Jim Brown he uses a 50-50 mix of ATF & acetone
Hi Jim! Sorry so late! Alex was right, 50% Automatic Transmission fluid and 50% Acetone! Works great!!! Thanks!!! 😃👍
Nice one..
What did you meant by SOL ??
Hello EA! That was an old military term that stood for "S#It out of Luck" Lol When things got bad you knew you were "SOL" =D Thanks!!!!!!!
ScoutCrafter and now I know an old military talk , that's cool , will be using it .
*Hand Tool Rescue* Make one, I'll buy it also.
Hello Prolific Invention, I thought hand tool rescue made a Billings Bicycle Wrench? He made this wrench too? Thanks!!! 😃👍
ScoutCrafter He does make the Billings, however I am unsure if he is familiar with this wrench. I tagged him in hopes he can make this one as well! Thanks for your skill, and excellent video!
Wrenches, listen-up.
Always floss between bolts or you develop slotivitis.
The next time you have a stuck screw, bolt or nut, try candle wax as a penetrant. Just heat the part and lay a candle against it. The wax will penetrate the threads and the lubrication will aid the removal.
my grandfather passed on to me the same type of wrench we are all from London UK
it had the name PERRY embosed in an amateur way. Anyone know of a UK factory called PE RRY??
If there ever was a "sexy" restoration, this would be it.
Hello Spider Rico! I am with you 100%! Some people were upset with the Red, they would rather the wrench was rusty! Go figure! Lol. Thanks so much!!!!! 😃👍
How much would a Yankee ratchet screw driver in good shape is worth Scout
Sweet
Schweet !!!!😎👍
Like new and looking better since I don't think it had color red
What you should have done is use gun bluing on it, The red looks great.
If I have a froze up tool that isn't marked up I give that guy a Kerosene bath for a few days. That thinned up oil works its way in and does a great job. This way I don't have to get to rough unnecessarily and mark it up. I'll save the bang ups for when I put that guy to work! Happily! That's why their tools...
Scott H - Absolutely! Kerosene was in every shop years ago! It works great!!! One of my subscribers is a mechanic and he said once a year he takes all his ratchets and puts them in a bucket of tranny fluid for a couple days. He says they work smooth as silk! I use a lot of Kerosene because I collect antique lanterns. When I was a kid my dad would add a cup of Kerosene to the rinse water when washing the car! Thanks again!!! 😃👍
now i want one lol
it really should be called fit z most
Lol you're right! It really worked much better then I thought it would! Especially having never seen one before!!!! Thanks!!!!!
Класс!!
