Crescent Tool Restoration
Вставка

- I found this old tool out side where I left it some time ago, it was covered in rust, and wouldn't adjust. It is amazing to see the results of a tool that would not work brought back to life and have use again.

Nice restoration Mr. Dale. I've truly enjoyed watching you bring those old tools back to life over the past year or so.
Glad you like them! It has been a lot of fun doing them. I have plenty more planned and several boxes of tools to restore. As always thanks for watching.
This was the perfect video I needed to watch. I was gonna let my wrench’s soak in CLR. I never thought to use rust remover, and it seems like it works real good. Awesome video.
Glad it helped, James, Evapo Rust is a really good product and it is safe, and no harsh chemicals. I some times use Vinegar it is not quite as good but it does work. Thanks for watching, and good luck.
Those Jamestown Crescent Wrenches were built to last! Excellent job on it Mr. Dale! Good Stuff!
Thanks 👍 I wish I could remember where I got the wrench. It was fun to make usable again. I have just started restoring things and really enjoy it, Thanks for the encouragement.
@@Dalesworkshop keep on keeping on Mr. Dale.. your videos are well done!!
Shop time = Fun time! Great job!!!!
Yes! Thank you! I really appreciate your comment. I have watched your show many time because you have really interesting Content. I have had good response with the restorations. And like you said its a fun Time. Thanks for watching.
Dale I never saw someone take apart a wrench the way you did. Very 1st time. It would be helpful if you expanded you instruction on how to restore these type of tools. Thank you, We The Few continue to learn from fellow pateriot's .... OORAH!!
Nice to meet your channel, sir. Great to watch. Best wishes from Germany
Thanks for watching sir, I hope you will come back again. I have many Dunlap tools from Germany. I did a video on one recently. Great to meet you.
Fun video, thanks for putting it together. Maybe your next restoration should be your vice?
I see what you mean, I did finally anchor it. Thanks for watching,
Upper neck may be from a pipe. Getting thrown around more likely. Fun restore!
Thanks for stopping by, You are probably right that is a common practice and in some cases necessary.
Nice job!
Thank you and thanks for watching.
Great video. You and I have a lot in common.
Glad you like it thanks.Tool restoration is so much fun and rewarding.
Nice relaxing video. Nice vise. I picked up that same model yesterday at a yard sale. Like new, he seldom used it. $10. Thank you .
Very nice! thanks for watching. I wish I could remember where I got that vice, but my shop is small and that vice is perfect. Hope you enjoy your vice.
Looks like brand new!
Thanks, it cleaned up very nice.
Great video, Dad!!! Very impressive!
Thanks Daughter, as always it was a lot of fun do do.
Good Job!👍🏼
Thank you Brian and thanks for watching.
I have one that’s seized I just soaked in wd40 today. Also a Jamestown. I had no idea there’s a removable pin. Thank you
Hey, glad I could help Thad WD40 is great stuff. If I have heavy rust and rust thats hard to get to ,I soak them in Evaporust. Good Stuff. Thanks for the comment and for watching. Not all pins are removable, and some are just plain hard to get out. Fortunately that one was easy.
Very enjoyable. ❤😅
Glad you enjoyed it, These are a lot of fun to do.
I got a few of them Crescent wrenches similar to that
Once I started looking through my tool box, I found several.I have no idea where I got them.
Thank you sir❤
Thank you for watching.
JAMESTOWN, NY IN DA HOUSE!!!!!! They MADE that town!
I appreciate ya, good to know the history.
Dale,been in contact with you about the ratchet spinner. Still would like to know if it's still available. Watched your video on the Crescent wrench, I was born in Jamestown & grew up about 2 1/2 miles from that factory.
Good job, Dale.
Thanks and thank you for watching.
Nicely done.😊
Thank you! 😊
awesome show. thanks
Glad you enjoyed it, I was able to use the tool on a project recently and it performed Great. Thanks for watching.
Nice results.
Thanks! I appreciate you watching.

i think the marks are because another tool was used on it for leverage
Thats a possibility, It looked like the marks were ground in a v shape with some type grinder. Thanks for watching sir.
Nice job I restore tools also and I like what you did I don’t take all the age off either it adds character in my opinion different strokes for different folks
Thanks Don, I appreciate you watching. I checked out your channel, nice job. Looking forward to seeing more.
@@Dalesworkshop thanks I appreciate you also someone has to keep tool history alive and you are doing a fine job thanks for watching I’ll try to do more videos I’m still learning to navigate through the technology side of things and I’m 47 and my kids know more than I do lol
nice restoration. where did you get the brush attachment for your drill?
Thanks for watching, I actually got it where I use to work, but I have seen them on Amazon. Those are soft bristle which I like, you can get them into smaller places.
A good friend just gave me the 12" model of that wrench . Very rusty and siezed up... but think it's newer because it just says made in usa ?
Cool let me know how it turns out when you restore it.
I've seen several the same wrench "restoration" and there was a small spring in there, but not with you and the others did not show (at reassembly) where the spring goes. 🤨🤨🤦♂🤦♂
Actually I did not see one. Not really sure the purpose of one. I will go back to the wrench and check for one and I'll get back to you.
Started on a adjustable wrench like that but the stud that holds the wheel backs out a bit then just spins...any ideas on how to remove it...😩
Without seeing it, it would be hard to give accurate information. I know the one I was working on did the same thing. I took some vice grips and pulled on it till it came out.So much gunk had built up in there and was keeping it from coming out. It also could be a threat has broken off and it cant get a grip to back out. I wish you luck, maybe get a magnifying glass and get a real close look to see what is going on and go from there. Hope that helps. Let me know what you find
The treads are on the bottom , just take a pair of pliers and pull it out. This is quite common with Cresent adj wrenches.
@@oldvet2639 does not come out enough to grab ….
@@setdown2 IF you can drill screw enough to get a eazy out in it, maybe that would work . It may give you enough bite to pull it out.
I just realized the hole where the screw is in a lot of times the wrench is dented as to keep the screw from backing out on its own. You may have th drill those out to get them out of the way so you can back the screw out ..
i need a garage ... sadface
I hope you get one, I kinda wish I had one too, thanks for watching.
Dale,been in contact with you about the ratchet spinner. Still would like to know if it's still available. Watched your video on the Crescent wrench, I was born in Jamestown & grew up about 2 1/2 miles from that factory.
Thats cool about living in Jamestown. I sent you my e mail recently so you could send me your address, and you can send me what ever tool you want, and it was the weird ratchet that looked like a breaker bar wasn't it that you wanted?
@Dalesworkshop Dale, been busy throughout the holidays. About time to get back to you. My address is Rick Widlund 3017 Terry rd Sinclairville, NY 14782.
