That is pretty cool looking. Looks like it should be in a museum.

It looks like he has a CD player in the saw for a dash board too. Pretty cool!

Neat piece.

The wrench shape is "as supplied" in the old days. I have several hanging on the shop wall given to me by a 85 year old neighbor about 30 years ago. They are affectionately referred to as "knuckle busters". Here's a pic, you can see them right hand side of the left window behind the Goop dispenser.
