How It's Done: Antique-Style Pocket Wrenches
Today we dive deep into the manufacturing of a new size adjustable wrench for sale on my website at www.handtoolrescue.com
This smaller pocket wrench is a new version of the wrench we have been making for years. Every part is now fully machined resulting in much tighter tolerances and a better fit and finish than ever before.
This video is in the style of Season 1 of How It's Made hosted by Canadian Olympic swimming gold-medalist @themarktewksburychannel6647 .
Unsurprisingly, I loved this show and consider it a perfect piece of Canadiana.
Wrenches, screwdrivers, and socket drivers are now for sale at www.handtoolrescue.com

I love how the clear, concise narration of this incredible tool-making process incredibly narrates how clear and concise this tool-making process is.
I found it especially clear and concise.
Oh how the turn tables.
@Hand Tool Rescue I sent this to someone I know at Motion Raceworks and TBM Brakes. If you aren't familiar with them, they build racecar parts (and AN wrenches), they amassed an amazing aray of CNC machinery to build some amazing products. Anyone who works in a machine shop will like this video!
@@michaelreynolds1904 hell yeah brother! 😉
I love to say the word brass……brass brass
For anyone who missed it, Hand Tool Rescue managed to track down the original (not really) Mark Tewksbury turtle neck sweater from his short stint at How It's made for this bit and I really want people to enjoy how hilarious that details is.
Actually took me a long time to find the highest turtleneck I could.
Best how it's made episode ever.
Couldn’t be. The music wasn’t bad enough.
This video truly, truly brought tears to my eyes. Never before was a video filled with such grace and elegance. Just heartwarming
And so clear and concise
The most surprising thing is that the brass adjusters are made of brass. A material made at 100% of brass. Truly an attention of detail rarely seen these days.
"Nobody knows who's face the mill is based off, but historical documents suggest it was your mom." I just spit my cereal out laughing so hard😂 You just had to "slip that in." I love this channel!!
😂😂😂😂
That was a good one!
Agree😂
Subscribed off this little comment alone.
This. I love how it’s made. Throw in a fair amount of hand tool rescue comedy, and this is perfect. I should’ve had to pay to see this.
Hush or we may have to.....😁
It seems based on “how it’s really made” by Huggbees.
THE FLEEB! I'm usually dying of laughter every time you open your mouth on the Fitzall, and i have a chance to breathe when someone interjects... but having your top tier humor refined and concentrated for 5 minutes straight was just too much for my brain and i'm on a laugh cooldown for the next 24 hours
After pushing it through the flumbo 👍
I've had a mini wrench for a little over a year and absolutely love it. I'm a facility director forced to spend too much of my time behind a desk, but my HTR Mini is a "can't go without it" part of my EDC. I use it frequently - this morning I used it to remove a panel on an AC condenser, yesterday I used it to prop up my cell phone for a project meeting. If anyone here still questions the cost after seeing this video, put your money where your mouth is and buy one. You'll quickly change your tune.
I wish you could have spent more time covering how the wrench's turbo encabulator attenuates veeblefetzer flyback and reduces fresnic freen modulation, but this is still great information.
I didn't want to get too technical. Next time.
This video is clearly more of a general overview/introduction, I'm certain the more specific processes you mention will be covered in a more in-depth video in the future.
For crying out loud. Its an turbo encabulator ATTENUATOR veeblefetzer flyback arrangement. Otherwise all other coriolis effect affected wreches never (and there is scientific proof), nerver ever will get even close to any fresnic freen modulation motion damping what so ever. I'm pretty sure, the host was very well aware of this issue.
Not to mention the torqulator accessory..
@@konohh No, David is correct, 'encabulator assisted' produces the flyback result, 'attenuator modified' is a modification deliberately applied to cause the flyback effect to fail over into the 'walk back a bloody long way' state. Your mistake is a common misconception that has been perpetualised by the author Veet Verlgunspart, who misrepresented encabulator resonance displacement when he used it as the main plot element in his best selling novel 'Ah crap it happened again!'. If he'd used graphtoid dissonance theory instead his book would've been factually more accurate but far less smutty, especially that really racey bit on page 92!
My takeaway from this is that you only cut corners to avoid lawsuits. Truly a fly by night operation :P
This is pure genius! I loved every second especially the “where we cut the fleeb” part! Nice throw back meme!
Thought it was "phleeb" 🤔
Fuhllievbee. It's Canadian French
But what about the plumbus?
@@DandelionCollabBénissez-vous
Got my dad one for Christmas last year and he’s been carrying it around ever since. He uses it all the time.
his nuts must be mashed to hell now 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Does he need to tighten his nuts a lot?
This is hilarious! Recycled or fed to children…😂😂😂 We need more of this!
I trust this also includes the 'milk'
@@theofontaine5564 I doubt it... The greedy machines are too busy hogging it all as they make the parts... 😄😁😆😅😂🤣
You cleaned up good for that beginning. More dad jokes/puns per minute than I can count. Dead pan delivery. I am so here for this content.
Hilarious! Beautiful! I laughed, cried, an emotional roller coaster and adventure all in one solid piece. I give it two (2) 👍👍 thumbs. Both left handed.
I loved watching How it's done when I was a child, very cool that you got to be in their show! Didn't recognize the narrator when he was on screen, but it all came together when the presentation of the production process began.
Sensual overload. How It's Made is my second favorite thing to watch, after narrated Hand Tool Rescue videos.
The homage to How It's Made is much appreciated!
The sarcasm is pure canadiana!! Great ad!
My father always told me that the harder a wrench gripped your nuts the better. Over the years he has been proven correct time and time again.
Helps in the wench can do other things ...
Seems like my buddies' wife is a pretty good wrench
@@---Michael--- wait wut?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@---Michael--- That statement needs to be verified 🤔
@@andwjy (I'm not a foreign speaker, it intended it to be a joke about how she has a lot of control over him and does not let him go out with friends and stuff but making it about fucking your friend's wife is also pretty funny lol)
The video started and I thought to myself, “who is this tool?”, but I quickly realized, it’s still the tool we all know and love! What? I was talking about the wrenches, honest!
Never change, Eric. Never change. Sterling documentary.
I just love this classic "How its Made" type of voice over with background music. And all the little jokes! Oh boy are those just the icing on the cake!
UTTER NONSENSE! I love it.
The voice was absolutely perfect!
Here we observe how a wrench reaches maturity in it's natural habitat. Marvelous!
You should consider doing a collab with Huggbees, who does a series "How it's really made". You carried this perfectly (and entertainingly) on your own, but you could both gain subs by introducing his community to yours and vice versa.
Entertaining video. Your sense of humor is on-point, and you make a damn fine wrench too!
Firstly, you have a wonderful announcers voice. Secondly, the deadpan delivery is fantastic.
This may be the greatest thing I've ever seen. You can take down the internets, we have a winner.
Brilliant commentary, you've finally explained so many of the mysteries of wrench production and machining in general 👏👏
This has always been my favourite episode of How it's Made!
2:40 "This is where we cut the Fleeb" omg nailed the tone perfectly
The commentary that every episode of 'How Do They Do That?' so desperately needs. 😁👌👍
I NEED MORE VIDEOS JUST LIKE THIS 🤠❤⚒
So do I. I simply watch this one over and over. And all over again. Until the night closes in. ‘Till the night closes in. No one else can ever make me Feel the way this video does. Oh, so keep on loving the wrench And I'll keep loving it It's easy to see When something's right or something's wrong So stay with hand tool restoration and hold the wrench all night long Show me, show me everything you do. 'Cause baby no one does it quite like you. I love it, need it, oh wrench
that was precious. you have serious talent., and I don`t mean just your tooledness. I REALLY look forward to such videos
Yes! Absolutely more videos just like this one please! I love the how it’s made feel combined with your unique brand of humor.
The music and the tone of your voice made me think I was watching a 1990's training video. Excellent as always!
Ordered 4, finally have a way to keep my friends off my nuts! Thanks HTR!
Count me in good Sir. Your expert narration of all the steps is what I needed to hear. Bravo Sir, Bravo.
So glad to see HTR giving back to the starving children. Very wholesome👍🏻
Most informative! I particularly enjoyed the historical perspective, which gave me perspective on the history.
I feel I now completely understand the process of making a high quality pair of electrician’s pliers! Thanks HTR!
The machining of the fleeb is always my favorite part.
A perfectly perfect proclamation on perfection in precision processing of a perfect tool!
This is art. Thank you for this!
I got mine at a thrift store years ago and I love it
Mills and lathes get all the glory, but it's the tumbler that puts in the hard work!
This is the best episode of "How It's Made" yet!
That was absolute gold!
Dad joke overload. I love it!
I could watch this stuff all day long! Thank you! (From Leduc County, AB)
The 2 reasons I subscribed many moons ago are: 1. The cool things you build. 2. Your awesome humor❗🙂👍
The machine gods will be happy
I'm curious. What's the material used to make the brass adjuster?
I'll ask.
I think the nice narrator man said PVC
@@googi577 I thought he said Bass. Isn't that a fish?
@@danielsahlberg4412 No, that's Paul McCartney. Hey, are these left-handed wrenches????
watching every Hand Tool Rescue video, i am holding my own HTR wrench while, subconsciously, opening and closing the jaws
This is hands down my new favorite episode!!!
Noooo! You can't just drop the loss of that glorious beard on us without any warning! We had no time to mourn! How could you have moved on so quickly!? Did the beard mean nothing to you. You will be missed beard! **Sad funeral trumpets**
Best episode of "What Will They Think of Next? "
This... this is the best video I have ever seen.
The absolute spot on Mark Tewksbury at the start!
Holy crap he shaved the beard 😮
Dear Sir: I am a woman and do not have many nuts that requiring tightening. For my application should I buy the screwdriver product?
Many sizes to choose from!
You just lighted up my day. Thank you for this gem of a video.
This man is an absolute genius
Don't you dare to ever shave again
It's CGI.
@@HandToolRescue Somehow that's even more terrifying
@@HandToolRescue🤣
Dude, that was spectacularly done!
Oh thank you! I'll be re-watching that one periodically for a laugh. You are a gift to the world
I think HTR is looking at an Oscar next year for this “gripping” performance!
Bravo Eric, this was a fantastically written piece of content!
Fantastic video. Loved it. The narration was spot on hilarious. Great job.
One of the best things I’ve seen in years, great narration
10/10 video was smiling from start to finish 😊😊 Narration was as crisp as How it's Made 👌
This made my day. Comedy genius sir.
You are a treasure to the internets
Good to hear your smiling voice to go along with your smiling face. CHEERS!
The music is so on point, really sells it. 🤣🤣
ERIC!!! I just took delivery of my large and regular adjustable wrenches and the 3/8" socket driver and... THEY ARE GORGEOUS!!! ❤ When payday comes, I am definitely going to order the "little guys." You're an awesome fabricator, machinist, and general bodger... and also a decent KZheadr 🙃 Keep the awesome content coming!!! Joe (from Denver)
Love the "How It's Made" style, narration, and background music! Excellent modern take to one of my favorite shows when I was a youngster. Keep up the great work and entertaining videos!
I'd say this was 19 days late, except it's so obviously a serious video explaining the production process with lots of correct technical terms. I look forward to the accompanying screwdriver production video.
The narration was gut-bustingly hilarious, thanks for another awesome video
You are much more believable with a good shave! Good work!
Paying tribute to “how it’s made” is awesome! Thank you for your participation! 😂👍
Perfect play on 'How It's Made' - music, narration, and footage. I felt like going out to my tool box to marvel at the technology and artistry of my HTR wrench and screwdriver
Your brand of humor is epic.
How does he keep from cracking up while HES narrating?! 😂😂😂😂 Priceless!
Someone's been watching too much How It's Made on Discovery...but seriously, your narration...surprisingly nice to listen to.
I still have my original wrench from the first run you ever did. I love it and use it often sometimes when I don't really need to lol
You should switch careers to narration/writing. This was amazingly informative, direct and 100% accurate in every single aspect. I personally thank you.
Excellent work! I really appreciate the amount of effort you put into these.
This is like if Mel Brooks or The Zucker Brothers made tool making videos. Is perfect!
Pure gold and very funny. Thanks for making my day!
every second of this video is PURE GOLD!!
Pure gold! How many puns and dad jokes can you fit in a minute!
So close to 1M. Congrats! ALSO MORE STUFF LIKE THIS!!!! Good sense of humor, dude.
We demand a commercial like this for your screwdrivers as well!
The narration made me buy one 😂
Love it! I got two of each on three sizes on sale and I find myself using them all the time.
How it's made can't hold a candle to this video. Nice work.
