have been reading the posts' of tools and actually utilize some of them! i come from a place called america where union busting is rampant. in the factory i worked in the company actually purchased machinery from different countries just to have different size bolts and thread patterns so the millwrights would have to purchase these tools to service them.if they didn't have the tools they could not work. beat a working man down. i was poor. i made my own tools with there supplies. others followed my lead and we became strong back in the 80's and still today!
hopefully i will have some input on tool design/fabrication they may help someone and this is my reason for jumping on the band wagon. thanks

Hi cuyler1, as Ken has said, I would love to see your take on building the wrench that inspired you too. Welcome!
