Excellent,

Fantastic - so enjoyed this!

Extremly curious what happened to the beard Was there a nutella incident!!?? Did you lose some sort of bet??

Would you be willing to make another one (s) for sales. Would you be willing to make one on commission ?

Harrison Leake

Cool!

David Campbell

I think this is a great idea for a series. Maybe even go a bit further, and explore reasons why a particular design might have failed to take hold - not necessarily things like "it just wasn't strong enough", but maybe from the perspective of "the technology didn't exist to make it viable", as an example. I've always been fascinated with forgotten tech or ideas, so this is right up my alley.

Right?! It might actually be better.

Hand Tool Rescue

Haha thank you. Yes! I am going to try and fill the description with as much detail as I can.

Hand Tool Rescue

Definitely lots of room for improvement in this design.

It does smell brutal. It's the Cherry Red compound.

Hand Tool Rescue

Thank you!

Hand Tool Rescue

I will buy that wrench

Who needs a lathe if you have a drill press and an axe?

You made it look easy. The intro was the best part of my day. One aspect of tool and technology history that fascinates me is what were the drivers of innovation and ideas at design inflection points when we look back? A lot of research, restoration, and recreation opportunity around those questions!

Marc McKenzie

Very nice. That wrench turned out better than I expected. It LOOKS a bit flimsy, but it isn't as bad as I thought it would be. Perhaps solid pieces inside the grips would strengthen further. I'm no expert, though. Thanks for this "resurrection".

Chuck Kirchner

Nice, I like the idea of this series. I could smell the cat piss when you were case hardening it tho lol, unless you have one that doesn't reek of ammonia when you heat it up... IF so what is it?

Clifton Ballad

I was waiting for the call to Rusty, but alas ...

Peter Laws

Same old, same old, informative, entertaining, interesting, compelling because I always look forward to watching your videos.

Wilmer Schock

I must find that type!

The Friendly Giant wants his fireplace back.

was hoping for bubbles out of the pipe

This was a lot of fun, and I'd love to see more!

I liked the fireplace... A glass of whisky on the side table would be nice to create some "atmosphere"... Three is a saying in Portuguese "O whisky é o melhor amigo do homem, é o cão engarrafado" (Whisky its man's best friend, its a bottled dog).

Mauricio Mariano

I fell.
