These poor old vice grips fell out of the tractor while doing snow removal, thought to be lost forever. Just found in the side yard rusted and seized up. A healthy application of WD40 to the rescue.

A similar technique is used on ratchets, saw blades and other tools that may have been exposed to the elements.
