@Amir Mark i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
What a transformation. You've transformed what 99.9% of people would have tossed in the garbage into a beautiful tool anyone would would use. Great job and video. I don't comment much but always look forward to your next video. Keep up the great job.
That paint made this old beauty a one a of a kind! The pin you made was excellent gave me some ideas for if I need to make a pin like it in the future.
I received a new notice While sitting alone. A new post on your channel! It came on my phone. An adjustable wrench Made by B & C. It’s rusty-it’s crusty, Just what will we see? You soaked it and beat it You need Scout’s short hammer. You then drilled it out Without too much clamor. I’m watching you “machine” while I sit in the shade. The pin came out great. I like what you made. Chuck, then the Flitz. You told quite a tale About the B & C wrench That you got in the mail. Another fine piece of work Mr. M. From the Lazy L in Sherman, TX, thanks for the fun. 🤠
Absolutely amazingly beautiful!!....it looks better than new! Great job sir! You have inspired me to find me old tools to make look new again. Thank you very much....
Nothing like a few good schwacks to get things moving. Sort of like the old antenna TV sets, when you'd smack them on the side to get a picture - after putting aluminum foil on the antenna and standing on one leg.
Thanks Thomas! I've had success with the drill press as a wood lathe too! Check out my recent mini screwdriver project! th-cam.com/video/Yn_jWF1xgCU/w-d-xo.html
@@357magdad That screw driver turned out great. One question what kind of speed do you run using your drill press as a lathe? I think I'm running it to fast I have a lot of kick back and gouging. Could be my experience too.
I never thought to re tap the hole. I have a shifter with a missing pin, but it is a 7mm thread and I don't have a 7mm tap. Maybe I will go bigger, thanks for the idea.
It was never going to look like new again but you took what was essentially scrap iron and produced a fully functioning tool. Great restoration when working with something so beaten up.
Almost caught you there in the reflection of that wrench buddy!! Fun thing is, I am working on a fully frozen wrench now to. I got it all apart, just the piece of pin in the tumbwheel is still stuck. It's soaking in 50/50 acetone and ATF now, I really hope to avoid drilling that thing, I will be of center on that for sure! Great idea on the initial turning down of the allthread, I've been thinking about how to do that for a while, now I know!
Ooooh I like the idea of using the drill press to shave down some threaded rod for the pin. I also don't have a lathe at the moment, and that's a fairly light duty job for the drill press. Thanks for the idea!
I finally got to this video ..Making the new pin has given me some ideas on how to use my drill press ..I have a 60 deg rotary diamond bit and a diamond shaped file on order for a project ..I am also designing my own wrench made from 1/8 in. flat stock
Awesome job! I've used the DIY lathe trick with some copper rods that I needed about half as thick. It worked very well. The wrench turned out beautiful. The ONLY thing I would've added to the process is using a needle file to bring back some of the knurling. Otherwise, she's still a beaut and I'm sure the original maker would be proud to have it in his toolbox again. 👍
Very nice! You are an inspiration to us all! I picked up a whole set of those in the "s" form at a yard sale. I think they are in a bit better condition to start with, but clearly I have a lot of work to do!
My goodness! What a wonderful job. That must have been some investment of time and effort into a wrench that was a .25 flea market purchase. You are a master of your craft sir. I aspire to someday reach your level of experience. Nice.
Always enjoy seeing the drill press lathe ..I do like that you painted part of the wrench The new polish wheels have me interested ....I like using my dremel type tool on small stuff
Excellent job and video. Great innovation without a lathe! Too bad about that knurling being so bad though. I think touching it up with gray in the grooves helped it somewhat.
Nice work and ingenuity ..it really turned out nice!!...the grey paint was a fit for sure. I have a B & C No.80 12" wrench similar to yours and its "Stuck" too....at least I know what to do now :]
Nice job Magdad, are you and Scout working together as his latest video was the pipe wrench you showed. He did an amazing job on it. I like the way you repaired and restored that. Cheers Stuart 🇦🇺
When I saw his video earlier in the week I was surprised he chose a B&C wrench also! It's actually happened a few times that ScoutCrafter and I have similar projects. I swear there was no collusion! LOL
357magdad. Hmmm, sounds a bit shifty to me. 😂😂😂. Seriously though I think it would be good if my two favourite channels did start working together. Cheers my friend, Stuart 🇦🇺
Nice results. I had a similar challenge on an adjustable wrench but mine was pitted pretty bad and I had to recut the grooves in the knurled knob. It did not turn out nearly as nice as yours but it works fine so it is in the mobile tool kit.
Very good job. I have told you this before but I will again. Wow you always amaze me how you get things done with minimal tools. How do you cut your pads on the scotchbrite? I have tried but they don't look very good. Stay safe and healthy my friend. Thanks
Thanks Glen! I got an exhaust pipe adapter from the local auto parts store and sharpened the end. I push and twist to cut the discs out. Sometimes it doesn't cut all the way through so I finish the job with scissors. The shape doesn't have to be perfect, the disc will true itself as you use it.
Filthy, Rusty and Stuck (FRS) - music to tool restorer's ears. You really had your work cut out for you on this FRS wrench. Liked prepping the pin. I have trouble keeping my Dremel polishing pads that come with the kits and that go on the course threaded arbor tight on the arbor. Not sure what I am doing wrong. But I see you just by them already mounted. Good idea. Wow the Niupika page has some good stuff for the small work.
Magdad, have you got a brass hammer? If so use it when beating on steel to keep from any possible impact damage to the tool surface. I use one all the time in my shop when working on getting stubborn steel parts loosened or moving.
Beautiful work I found a Barcalo -Buffalo N-10 crescent style wrench that's frozen, 1921 model, which is why I came looking for Ideas to free it up Thanks!
Oh no. That's not an original color. And all that patina sanded off. 😮 Kidding. It looks awesome. And way to persevere. I loved your ingenuity on pin making.
Maybe you should be a Farmer, making pins on a Drill Press is the kind of thing a Farmer would do to get his Equipment up and running so he could get the Harvest in.
I've got a cheap tap and die set from Harbor Freight and some hand me down pieces from my dad. You won't recognize that grinder now that I removed the guards and light!
This is Dadio-66! Wow, it is nearly unrecognizable now. Nice job and I’m glad you enjoyed the challenge.
Thanks for sending me the wrench! It was a challenging project!

Thanks Mike! I get a lot of satisfaction working on the "basket cases"!
You know a drill press is just a vertical lathe... 😉. Awesome job! I love the new Tap Magic container... You really saved this wrench! 😃👍
Thanks ScoutCrafter! Chuck has a list of equipment he wants me to get - I told him it would have to come out of his birdseed budget!
That was a great restoration... or I should say a great salvation! Great vid.
Thanks Ben! I find myself attracted to the basket cases.
That paint made this old beauty a one a of a kind! The pin you made was excellent gave me some ideas for if I need to make a pin like it in the future.
Thanks! This was a fun project!
Nice job. Gave that old wrench a new life.
It is very rewarding to bring old tools "back from the dead"!
It came out so industrial looking! It reminds me of the 40s and 50’s lathes and milling machines I used to use in high school
I think I saw JohnFix or JoesShop do the black letters on gray and I had been waiting for the right project to try it myself!
My spouse loves it when she hears Chuck! Great job!
Mrs. Magdad is not a big fan of Chuck's squawk!
Another fantastic job. Your channel was already 10/10, but Chuck has added a whole new dimension of excellence.
If Chuck sees this comment, he's gonna demand the premium bird seed!
He probably deserves it, but mum's the word.
This wrench would probably have ended up in the landfill, but you saved it. A good demo on making the pin . Enjoyed watching, thanks.
Thanks Tony! I get a kick out of saving the basket cases!
Excellent rescue. The replacement pin worked great. And, you did it with tools the average workshop guy is likely to have. Not all of us have a lathe.
Thanks Pat! Chuck wants me to buy a lathe! I told him we don't have the room or the budget! LOL
Nice work. That wrench got a new life!
Thanks Michael!
I received a new notice
While sitting alone.
A new post on your channel!
It came on my phone.
An adjustable wrench
Made by B & C.
It’s rusty-it’s crusty,
Just what will we see?
You soaked it and beat it
You need Scout’s short hammer.
You then drilled it out
Without too much clamor.
I’m watching you “machine”
while I sit in the shade.
The pin came out great.
I like what you made.
Chuck, then the Flitz.
You told quite a tale
About the B & C wrench
That you got in the mail.
Another fine piece of work Mr. M. From the Lazy L in Sherman, TX, thanks for the fun. 🤠
I read your poem to Mrs Magdad, we both loved it! Thanks Mark!
nice job on that pin! That wrench turned out awesome! Leave it to Chuck!!
Thanks Aaron!
Didn't have much to work with. But you pulled it off very nicely. Thumbs Up!
Thanks Gary!
That lathe work was fantastic
I get my money's worth out of that drill press!
@@357magdad no doubt. I have several that I use for wire brushing and drum sanding etc...rarely to actually drill anything😄
Ice job. I love when you make old tools usable again.
Thanks! I get a kick out of trying to bring old stuff back to life!
Wonderful job Magdad! Its great when people can see the shiny worth of a crusty rusty forgotten tool. Then they bring them back to life!
Thanks Stephen! I get a kick out of bringing the basket cases back!
Absolutely amazingly beautiful!!....it looks better than new! Great job sir! You have inspired me to find me old tools to make look new again. Thank you very much....
Thanks! Hunting for old tools and cleaning them up is a fun hobby!
Nice video. Thanks for showing the polishing pads at the end. Very helpful!
Thanks Davy!
Nothing like a few good schwacks to get things moving. Sort of like the old antenna TV sets, when you'd smack them on the side to get a picture - after putting aluminum foil on the antenna and standing on one leg.
Used to wack the radio and flashlights too!
357magdad - ah, the good old days, when things were simpler.
Excellent video. The work on removing the old pin and creating and installing the new pin was like watching a Brain Surgeon.
Michael from Canada
Thanks Michael! I hope if I ever need a brain surgeon, he/she does not resort to wacking me with a hammer!
Great job on that old wrench. I learned something if I should run in to that type of problem. I can hear the satisfaction in your voice.
Thanks Dale! It is satisfying to save the basket cases!
Wow! That was a pile of work...looks great
Thanks Joe! I wasn't gonna let that pin beat me!
I think the old saying is. Need is the Mother of invention. Nice work on the drill press. I use my drill press as a wood lathe.
Great video Magdad!!

5/16-18 is slightly bigger than 7mm and taps and screws are readily available.

Great looking wrench. Great idea with the all thread. 👍
Thanks Robert! That pin was a fun challenge!
Man that was a ordeal!!
Fantastic outcome..
I love those old adjustable wrenches
That pin sure gave me trouble! I like auto wrenches better, but they are all cool!

Another GREAT job. Pretty good and smart work for not having a lathe!

That is really incredible work Magdad! The polish looks really nice and I like the gray and black paint. Thanks for sharing this great tutorial.

Thanks David! I made a pin for an old auto wrench the same way.
What a beautiful Salvation. And the result is well, magdad style beautiful. Thank you
Thank you!
Sure did enjoy your restoration.
Thanks William!
Beautiful job.
Thank you!

That B&C Crescent wrench came out great. I really like the way you used drill press along with the angle grinder. Really thinking outside the box.
Thanks David! The pin turned out really well!
Hey MagDad that wrench turned out great!

Love your restorations, I restore/repair many tools myself. I'm more of a file and grit paper man though.
Keep up the great work. Tom. ❤

Excellent job and video. Great innovation without a lathe! Too bad about that knurling being so bad though. I think touching it up with gray in the grooves helped it somewhat.
Thanks Lee! The wrench works smoothly, it seems like that knurl had some casting/forging defects.
Great job! Looks really nice man.
Thanks Riprock!
Fantastic job! It really does shine, and I’m thoroughly impressed with how you made the new knurl pin. Very cool!
Thanks man! Chuck though we were gonna need a lathe! LOL
Great job! What a transformation. Thank you for sharing
Thanks Big Mike!
WELL done MagDad! Tell Chuck I said: "Shrack!" ...Newk from Kentucky
Chuck gave you a "hello" aak!
While you were Flitz'ing it, I was thinking you should paint the inset. Looks good!
Thanks David! I think I saw JohnFix or JoesShop use the gray with black lettering on a project. I was waiting for the right tool to try it on!
Nice job friend

I don't do well with adjustable wrenches. I just can't seem to get them tight enough!!
These wrenches are like pliers in that they do wear out.
@@357magdad Maybe that's my problem!
Nice results. I had a similar challenge on an adjustable wrench but mine was pitted pretty bad and I had to recut the grooves in the knurled knob. It did not turn out nearly as nice as yours but it works fine so it is in the mobile tool kit.
I was afraid that removing too much material from the knurl would affect the operation.
Well that was a fantastic transformation 👍How old do you think it is?
Thanks Nash! Bemis and Call were bought out in 1939, but tools continued to have their name. It would be great if it were pre WW2!
Great job way to improvise on the screw without a lathe.
