I've been performing this job for 50 years and my first move is to soak the metal objects in kerosene for several days - all bolts & nuts free-up and rust is magically loosened. If the object is large, I wrap it in burlap then saturate with kerosene. 😊

My sister frequented farm estate sales in southern Saskatchewan looking for interesting tidbits like this. Not for resale but because she found them interesting. She gave me one of these wrenches before she passed. It is in very nice condition and with a bit of oil it works as it was intended to. I have it in my shop on the wall and like to show it off but it's amazing that someone went to the trouble to make this and patent it.

In my part of the world, if you have a sandblaster you just sandblast all the rust away. Why use both methods?

@morelenmir
@morelenmir Рік тому
Was the idea for the spanner to fit on badly made nuts which were not properly centred? Otherwise I cannot see much call for it. I often get the feeling that handicraft tool makers were trying to find and often _invent_ their own niche around that time. It was very much as if they were butting up against the limitations of what were still quite Victorian manufacturing and forging techniques. For instance I saw what the uploader called a 'fractal vise' being restored the other day on YT--absolutely brilliant idea and the manufacturing would be impressive today, let alone a hundred years ago. However was there really such a clamour for the capabilities that offered? I don't know... Maybe! It is a little like those amazing gadgets you used to see advertised on late-night television during the late-1980's and into the 1990s--they promised you would not know you needed precisely what they were selling until you tried their gizmo! This little thing looks set to stick around for another century now though, unlike whatever Bonko were selling!!! In regards the restoration; the ratchet snaps nicely and the copper finish is an interesting touch--I don't think I have ever seen that done before on this type of project. I wondered if you were going to over-plate it with chrome to restore the original appearance but the orange and black works well together regardless. Is there a danger of removing the original heat-treatment when you are directly flame-heating the parts prior to bluing? Maybe they were made at a time when handicraft tools did not receive the same attention to hardening and tempering that (in good ones!) we see today.
