Small adjustable wrench


 Seen at the Beaumont Mills antique market,  a small simple unnamed adjustable wrench, Wrenches of this type were known as bicycle wrenches in the late 19th C.

    Sometimes I think these wrenches saw more use as hammers than actual wrenches.

    This was 4-5 inches long. I should make more effort to show scale in images.

    I think it was designed to be a shop project for machine shop students.

    That is certainly a possibility.
