This rusted old Swedish wrench has a patent that dates to 1937. The boxed ends are 14- and 15mm. The open end is 10mm and it also has a tire lever. It was rusty with almost all of its black paint gone and the pitting was quite deep. The rust was removed using electrolysis which is a very effective method of rust removal. I knew that I couldn't remove all of the pitting so I decided to frame it by giving the edges a nice clean cut and polished it to a mirror finish. The wrench turned out really nice!
I also etched my logo on the back of the wrench by using saltwater and an old laptop charger. It's a really simple but effective process. After polishing I Nickel-plated it for rust protection.
This restoration has a lot of grinding and is an excellent ASMR.
And since it has a 10mm end I made sure that it wasn't going to vanish into another dimension as soon as I turn my back on it :P
