Started working with a brother back in '87. Don't know what happened. Just disappeared. Found another.

Just thinking,,, all those years and I never measured my brother. Might have been only 1.5 O.D. I know my Jr and his homies are responsible for the disapearance. I've enjoyed walking around singing In Constant Sorrow, and saying "I'm going in to watch Oh Brother Where Art Thou again".

I have a similar brother made from solid brass. I use it for a drift. Works good.
 
In the slasher room of the textile mill, a lease rod was damaged (bent bad. Can't say how). It became 3 nice brothers. I do recall I ovaled about 7 inches 1 end in the press so it would swallow the open end of 1&1/4 combination wrench.
 

Mine is the upper tube from a Harley wide glide front end. It's hell for stout.
 
I dont know about a demographic. It's a mechanic thing. Let me get or put my brother on it. He's stronger than I am. Cheater bar is accurate

I use the drive shaft from an old 20 hp merc outboard. Toughest bar I’ve come across.
 
Jeez, I broke so many wrenches with mine that the company that replaced them for free went outta business and the new owners won’t replace them anymore…

Sorry about that
