Ingenuity in iron


A variety of so-called "bicycle wrenches."  It's interesting how different tool designers incorporated the various jaw sizes into one tool.

I pick up rusty old wrenches for various welding projects, usually sculptures for my wife's gardens. I keep them in a big pail. I was digging through them recently and rediscovered these old stamped wrenches.   I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with them but in the meantime I thought they made a nice photographic montage.

I'd like to see some garden pics of said sculptures.
