      The adjustable wrench was invented for electricians to have a one tool option to fit different size lug bolts. the smooth edged hole is for bending larger gauge conductors so the insulation doesn't get damaged.

      Some people are so closed minded, this would really help on big jobs where there's a shortage of chain vice grips. As boilermakers we could make up as many of these as we needed because there's never a shortage of Cresent wrenches

    The only alteration I've done to a crescent wrench is welding a cut off 1/2" drive socket to the handle. I've always had a 1/2" drive breaker bar and never have to look for a cheater pipe. Works great. Did it in 1996 working on otr trucks. 👍

We even had a bone yard of old worn-out power and machine tools that we would use to build custom job specific power and machine tools. It was a third-generation business; lots of old worn-out tools to tinker with.

    Interesting! The title is misleading because it implies that the hole was intended by the manufacturer for that use. Fabrication of a crescent wrench end into a chain wrench is what actually happened. I as a former mechanic have likewise fabricated tools at times, so kudos to Alva Welding for his creativity. I have used that end of a crescent wrench for increased leverage on a tight bolt by slipping the hole over a jaw of the open end of a combination open end and boxed end wrench. You can also use another wrench to do this by putting the boxed end of it over one of the jaws of the wrench being turned.

    Cool! And to think I’ve been doing it the hard way all these years using a stupid pipe wrench!

    A bigger wrench would do it as the experts point out in comments, but this actually looks very useful for my present problem: getting the nut for the front shock absorber off a strut. Can't use heat, the nut is not of proper shape for a wrench (has some flat surfaces, special tool was meant to be used which i don't have). Definitely going to try this. Might have to weld the chain to the nut.

    チェーントンの代用品ですね。
    ない場合はパイレンでも大丈夫だとほぼ素人の私には全て理解が出来ません。
    発想は素晴らしいですが手工具は大事にしたいと思いますが、参考にさせて頂きます。
