| Doesn't look that much better in the picture but all the rust is gone and the steel surface is clean. The steel that this wrench is made of is somewhat "soft" and the wire brush tends to stain the surface. This wrench was stamped out so one side had a pretty sharp deformed edge. Used the grinder wheel and sander to take the edge off and smooth the edges. Now it's nice to hold but the picture doesn't show the difference much. |

| I've used these Corona brand gardening shears for about 20 years without too much maintenance. The picture below shows it after a cleaning of the metal surfaces and greasing/oiling. Now they work very smoothly. I'm kinda looking forward to using them, even though I don't enjoy gardening... |

| Bought this small bag/brief case a few months ago. Cleaned, colored and polished it. Now it looks very nice. It's a high quality bag (Italian made) and looks to have been used as a small medical travel bag in the past (found a tongue depressor and a ear exam cone inside...). It's also unusual in that it has a latched compartment on both side of the case. One side has a large hinged opening so it's very easy to get inside to access. The other side (with the initials on the flap) is a much smaller compartment and is mainly good for thin sheaths of paper or a thin book. |

| Bought this replacement luggage handle to see if I can use it as a replacement for a small tool box handle. It might just work... |

| The bicycle phone mount on my daily rider broke at the base (the plastic cracked & separated). Bought this replacement mount from Amazon... |
