Travisher Tool: Innovative Adjustable Ratcheting Wrench | TOOLS by Design

Introducing the Travisher Tool

The Travisher is an innovative new ratcheting wrench designed by Travis from the YouTube channel TOOLS by Design. This versatile tool aims to make difficult mechanical jobs easier and more efficient for both professional mechanics and DIY enthusiasts.

Travisher Tool Overview

The Travisher ratcheting wrench features an adjustable head that pivots and locks at multiple angles. This allows users to fit the wrench into tight spaces and apply torque from many different positions. The head adjusts in 7.5 degree increments, providing a high level of precision and control.

In his demonstration video, Travis shows how the Travisher's flexibility makes it easier to loosen or tighten bolts and nuts in difficult locations. For example, he loosens a nut located deep within the recessed area of a machine part. With a standard wrench, accessing this nut would require removing other components first. But the Travisher reaches it with ease thanks to the head's 90-degree rotation capability.

Unique Ratcheting Mechanism

What really sets the Travisher wrench apart is its unique bidirectional ratcheting mechanism. It uses a clever pawl and gear system to allow tightening or loosening nuts/bolts without having to reposition the tool. So unlike normal ratcheting wrenches, it does not matter which direction you turn the handle.

This makes the Travisher extremely quick and convenient to use. You can attack nuts and bolts from awkward angles and drive them out efficiently. The ratcheting mechanism has 72 precisely machined teeth for smooth, precise movement with no slop or play.

Sturdy, Durable Construction

Travis demonstrates the strength of the Travisher by standing on the handle while it is locked onto a bolt. Despite over 200 lbs of weight, the wrench and adjustable head show no signs of bending, slipping, or breaking.

The Travisher achieves this impressive durability through careful construction. It features a rugged chrome alloy steel frame with heat treated gears. Both the head and handle also undergo special hardening processes. This allows the tool to withstand up to 1,100 ft-lbs of torque force.

Use Cases

Based on user feedback, here are some of the most popular use cases for the versatile Travisher tool:

Auto Repair

Mechanics often need to access bolts and nuts in extremely tight engine compartments. The Travisher's compact, pivoting head excels at reaching into nooks & crannies. And its bidirectional ratcheting function speeds up repairs by eliminating wrench repositioning.

Machinery Maintenance

Industrial machinery poses some of the toughest bolt-access challenges. The Travisher allows maintenance crews to service recessed fasteners without disassembling other components first. This minimizes downtime and labor costs.

Home/Farm Projects

For homeowners and farmers, the Travisher brings pro-level convenience to DIY jobs. Tackling tasks like equipment/vehicle repair, demolished structures, gardening tools, and more is faster with the tool's flexibility and strength.

Reviews/Impressions

Based on Travis' demonstration and initial feedback, professionals and hobbyists alike are excited about the Travisher's capabilities. They love how it can fit into tight spaces other wrenches cannot. And its bidirectional ratcheting function is an enormous time saver.

Many mechanics see the Travisher becoming their go-to wrench for most repair jobs. They feel it outperforms normal ratcheting wrenches thanks to more working angles and better torque/leverage. Home DIYers are also huge fans - calling it an "essential" addition to any tool collection.

Availability

As of December 2023, the inventive Travisher Adjustable Ratcheting Wrench remains in development with TOOLS by Design. Travis continues testing and tweaking the patented tool. Once finalized, he plans to gauge public interest for a potential commercial launch.

For now, the Travisher is only available as a one-off custom l creation. But based on overwhelmingly enthusiastic early feedback, a consumer version could become available soon. So mechanics and DIYers should stay tuned to TOOLS by Design for future Travisher updates!

FAQs

What are the main features of the Travisher tool?

The main features are the adjustable pivoting head that rotates 90 degrees, the bidirectional ratcheting mechanism that eliminates wrench repositioning, and the durable chrome alloy steel construction.

What types of tasks is the Travisher tool good for?

It excels at auto repair, machinery maintenance, home/farm DIY projects, and any application requiring access to bolts in tight spaces or frequent ratcheting action.

How does the ratcheting mechanism work?

It uses a 72-tooth gear system that engages with a switchable pawl to enable bidirectional tightening/loosening without needing to reorient the wrench.

When will the Travisher be commercially available?

As of late 2023 it remains in development and testing. But if interest is strong, TOOLS by Design may release a consumer version soon.
