Made/ welded some wrench/ socket guys for my boys from my dads tools

[Rob-c]

So when my mom passed 2 yrs ago and when we cleaned out my dads shed completely , I found one of his old tool boxes tucked away . I certainly did not need them , but never the less I couldn’t just get rid of his tools  . So I came up with a idea of making a couple guys for my boys as a keep sake . On Sunday when it was raining I broke out the torches and welder and this is what I ended up with . I’m going to take  them into work and sandblast them , then put  a couple coats of satin clear on . Then wrap em up for Christmas .

Neat idea. The one on the felt looks like the 18mm I can't find..

Well it’s all standard, hence why I really didn’t need them. I’ve got standard wrenches  and  sockets of my own that’s collecting dust .

What a great job you did!!

Knowing where those tools came from, will be extra special to the boys as gifts.
