View Full Version : I nearly threw it away.

I helped a sister-in-law gather up some scrap iron from her farm they're selling. I threw this and a couple of other big tractor wrenches on the trailer figuring, what would I ever use them for.

I went back later to the trailer to make sure there wasn't anything I could use, just in case. Good thing too.

I cut off the other end, did a little grinding and think I've come up with a cool shifter handle. A pair of these would make a unique pair of headlight mounts too.

Lessons- Check out farm tools, look at things for their design and don't throw anything away.

Lots of good stuff going to the scrap yard with the current high prices being paid.

In good condition, these wrenches are going for $300 on ebay

You're joking right?
