    This antique rusty tool restoration video is of an adjustable spanner generally described as a French wrench. Whilst this isn't a very rare wrench it certainly does have all the characteristics of a what might be described as a classic vintage tool. The mechanism is very easy to operate with only three working parts. This adjustable spanner is simplicity itself, all that's required to move the jaws to the correct dimension of the nut is a turn of the handle.
    We hope this practical demonstration of how to repair and restore a vintage tool will help to teach you all the processes involved in a restoration project, help to learn new skills and give you the confidence to practice them yourself.
    Many thanks go out to Ben from the Tool Addict UA-cam channel who not only kindly supplied the rusty wrench for this video but also donated a sticker for the blast cabinet. Another big thank you goes out to our friend across the pond, Mr Robert J Foust for also sending a sticker for the cabinet, please support both their great channels,

    I have an identical wrench to the one you have there, but the one I have is about 5 inches overall length. While trying to identify a vintage monkey-style wrench I have, I came across a picture of my little wrench labelled a "bicycle wrench" I guess this one is small enough to do spokes and a lot of the nuts/bolts on a bike. Just some useless information. Oh, and the old monkey wrench turned out to be a double-jawed wrench patented in Canada in 1827!
