Like a normal axe, but slightly safer.

Chugging alone slowly. Working on gas and electrical currently.

I was wondering about the limited tools thing... Then I watched you drill a hole with a wrench. Yep. That's pretty damn limited. Well played

handtoolrescue

We couldn't believe the wrench actually gripped that tightly. To cut the groove in the handle, we filed teething into the grinding disc on the angle grinder...

Has part 2 been posted yet?

This reminds of that time in my early teens that Me and a buddy rebuilt a rust bucket motorcycle with tools I rigged up from my mother’s “picture hanging” toolkit. Good times. Id bet a weeks pay that bike is still polluting the planet on the road somewhere.

I remember the winter and the guy in that coat in Saskatoon; then I see the guy here with the shoes, white shorts and fancy power tools and they can't be the same person. So where's HTR? Remind me to tell everyone about the joke about Saskatoon some day.

handtoolrescue

Hahaha. I escaped the cold that day, it was glorious.

Felix

ah yes. Sharpening axe with hand file and sandpaper. Done that .

Just a question like that, does Italy has free healthcare for tourists ?

handtoolrescue

Haha, I think so, but I got some extra insurance anyways.

I know you like the Evapo-Rust for, well, evaporating rust. But what do you favour as a chemical paint stripper?

handtoolrescue

Honestly and unfortunately, just find the most potent and heavy duty paint stripper available. These old finishes are tough.

Dan Johnston

Thanks, bud. I'm likely dealing with lead paint, and so don't want to agitate it with a 3M disk...

Chuck Kirchner

Those stones look familiar. Are you doing this at the Colosseum?
