Thats stopping crank ballancers or other big round objects like bigger than 6 inch round objects that are very tight but them 19" channel locks are mighty handy for lots of things

      @@crabtrap Your Mistaken I'm retired but I bought a chain wrench off of a tool truck in thousand oaks, ca in '98. I don't know what bike tools are you talking about you must have brain damage so I will just ignore you for being to young to know when to shutup. I think this wrench was for twisting pipes up to 10". Around our shop we used tools like this to turn motors over or to lock them when tightening crank nuts or VW gland nuts to 400lbs. As an there were special factory tools that could do the same job but they cost even more and only worked for one application. If you want to really learn about tools instead of just shooting your mouth off get a job at a heavy equipment shop and see what tools the men have.
      However I would never have messed up that adjustable wrench the was Indian guy did but those guys are different they use cutting torches and arc weld with thongs on.

      I immediately went to the comments to see if anyone else was thinking ‘destroy a perfectly good cresent wrench?’
      Perhaps this is an ok idea. But finding a bike chain is more effort than going to HD to but the right tool.
      Buying a bike chain, negates having to look for one, but probably costs around the same as buying the actual tool.
      Ruining one of the last remaining USA made C wrenches is a terrible idea. Even F’ing up a crappy Chinese one is still more work than it’s worth.
      But if you have a broken bike and the chain is already trashed, your wrenches are junky HF stuff and you’re needing to get this exact same thing accomplished, this might just be the best plan ever.

      Might as well take an adjustable wrench and open it to just the right size for a particular nut you want to tighten or loosen and weld it shut just there.
      No need for pesky exact sized wrenches when you can just modify an adjustable wrench to the perfect fit.

    Just open up the spanner, and with a wet piece of rag, put it on the fitting, you may need to fold the rag a few time's and then just adjust the spanner to fit and the wet rag will take up the slack. Oh and the hole at the end of this 10 inch or 12 inch spanner is to tighten any water mains spindle that might have an old washer in it.

    That’s not a secret of that tool. It’s not meant to have that function. Nothing you have to modify is a secret until after it’s been modified and even then it’s only a secret until the modifications reaches social media. That would be like me calling the crescent wrench I grinded down to make an adjustable skinny wrench to fit between the nuts on a bmx hub a secret. Not a secret, just a modification.
    So, up until this video was posted, the only secret about this whole thing was your idea to modify a crescent wrench to add another function to it. And a great idea it is, imo.
    However, you can achieve the same, what I call, “vise wrench” with a sturdy 2x2 piece of wood, a back chain and a couple nails or screws. There are many other things that can be used to make one, but the materials I just listed are the bare minimum to get you through a project or two. I made one out of a bolt cutter handle and i can almost unscrew myself when I get myself into an undesirable position that usually comes right after I open my mouth and insert foot.
    Good job thinking outside the box.
