Saved from the Trash
#7
I enjoy saving old tools from the trash too.  It’s always a shame to see a tool with many years of useful life left discarded or left to die because it’s not working well simply due to lack of maintenance.
 
Here’s a large adjustable wrench I saved.  All it took was a about an hour of electrolysis, cleaning in soap and water, disassembly, lubrication with Super Lube and reassembly.  Now it’s good to go for many years and works smooth as silk.
