Interesting. I didn't know that any such tool existed. Excellent restoration.

2018-03-03 17:29:04 +0000 UTCInterested in getting some more made? I think one would look good on my beer fridge.
2018-03-03 17:28:10 +0000 UTCI'm glad you two connected; the stickers really make it all come together. Your work speaks for itself too.
2018-03-03 01:45:16 +0000 UTCThank you! I had them recreated by formagraphicart@gmail.com. He contacted me about his passion for old tools and graphic design. I was honestly so impressed with how well he recreated that logo and text.

2018-03-02 16:18:53 +0000 UTCAs usual, a wonderful show of your knowledge on to restoring an old item to new and useful product again, great work. I do have a question for you. How did you manage to come up with identical stickers to apply it it again?
2018-03-02 16:16:41 +0000 UTCDefinitely would be better.

2018-03-01 14:09:26 +0000 UTCWad punches are better though. The throat on a pliers punch is what, 50mm?
2018-03-01 12:25:56 +0000 UTCWe, that depends, do I get to keep the tool after it's restored?

2018-03-01 05:17:06 +0000 UTCI have been hoping you would get an ultrasonic parts washer! Love watching the dirt come off! Congrats!

2018-03-01 01:28:42 +0000 UTCThat was a great one! Not sure how easy they'd be to come by, but I'd love to see you restore some early hardrock mining equipment, like early pneumatic percussion rock drills, etc.
2018-03-01 01:28:30 +0000 UTCHole punch... Go get a bunch of pipes and chuck them in a drill. take it to your bench grinder and make some punches.
