Congratulations Mook - your Ratchet Tap Wrench is the Homemade Tool of the Month for October 2025!

Tough month to win, and definitely not the first homemade tap wrench we have seen over the years. However, this is one of the best designs, especially considering Mook's followup Refined Design Ratchet Tap Wrench.

And that makes two Homemade Tool of the Month wins for Mook, after his Work Support from last August.
