    In this video I restore an antique monkey wrench. I’m really satisfied with the result. And would like to hear your comment below.
    Don’t forget to watch my video of the Italian forgotten hand saw: th-cam.com/video/ConG_UIRs_g/w-d-xo.html

      I rarely see your hands during your restorations because of the gloves you wear. However, I noticed that you have some not unexpected sores from your metal and woodworking. There is a product called NuSkin which is like a super glue that you can use on those sores to protect them and help them to heal quicker. It stays on the skin and is waterproof. Word of caution, it burns like hell when you first apply it. Waiting impatiently for new videos. Lori Wallace

    I admit I am fascinated by the unique containers you use (pitchers, glasses, bottles,etc.). I have come to the theory that either you were an alchemist who raided the cupboard or a mad scientist with a hobby of going to thrift shops. None the less, your work always makes me think you’ve done magic to turn very rough items into looking like new.
