I’ve customized too many tools to count in my life, but they usually involve wrenches or pliers of some kind that I’ve ground on, made shorter, or welding something else to. The most common mods are usually on end wrenches that need to be thinner to fit somewhere, or bent in some weird way to reach a fastener, etc. You never know when you are going to have to customize a wrench so I have a drawer of relatively cheap ones that I don’t feel bad modifying for my needs. But what about customizing ratchets and stuff. Do you guys do that in your garage?
In the video below you’ll see the Last Best Tool channel on YouTube where a Harbor Freight Pittsburgh ratchet is getting some love so it has more joints and reach different places. Since I have a love hate relationship with ratchets that have a flex or bending handle, I question whether this one is handy or would just drive me nuts to use. Maybe both.
Watch the video and let us know what you think.
