knots Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Adjustable bending fork fabricated from a derelict monkey wrench. The adjustable feature is very handy when bending forged tapered work pieces, such as snakes and other organic forms. I have two sizes. The on shown is for larger work.

J W Bennett Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 I have made several into nice twisting wrenches from those but never thought of a bending fork. Thanks for the idea. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Hi John - Yes I have three sizes of twisting wrenches for square stock made from old monkey wrenches. They work really well because the wrench face is wider than modern wrenches. At least on mine they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Real handy to have a couple of "Ford" wrenches with the jaws smaller than typical wrenches too---sometimes you just want to grab a small bite! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
