    That's cool, just saw that on one of the fb pages I follow. I think either wonderful engineering or steampunk tendencies

    I’ve got a good start anyway, last time I checked I had about 30 identical monster single-ended crescent wrenches. They came as part of 5 tons of stuff from a NYC ship chandler. All the hardware a merchant ship of the 40’s thru 60’s needed was in there in quantities: fids, marlin spikes, sail needles, sail palms, tank sounding tapes, oilers, wrenches, marline, caulking tool sets, handcuffs, leg irons, line throwing cannons, a deep sea diving air compressor, waterproof cans for distress flares marked with the names of liberty ships, brass cotter pins 1”-6”, compasses, and hundreds of other items.

    Most is still in storage. We sold some on Eboo but it didn’t do as well as our military stuff so we put the nautical aside and focused on military until liberal Eboo was taking it down as soon as we put it up, so we moved to the various gun auction sites. The company’s military stuff is now mostly on gunbroker dot com under the name “cannonmn.”

    I’m thinking of having an auctioneer come in to liquidate that stuff, one that does local and online auctions simultaneously.

    It wouldn't fit into my personal style, but I can see someone positively pouncing on that if it came up for sale. Coolest thing ever for a gearhead's man cave.

    I think it's great! Makes me wish I'd learned to weld. (I assume that's how it's assembled)

    Looks like. The only other way would be to put them in a frame and add epoxy, but it wouldn't look nearly as cool.
