I made this for my Jack Ryan costume. I've seen so many people just use a normal pipe wrench when they do Bioshock stuff. I wanted to take it a step farther and do a truly accurate one. A couple of issues I has was the wrench from the game is only 12 inches. I couldn't find a 12 inch pipe wrench so I settled with a 14 thinking most people won't know the difference. The other thing is how much the game wrench is angled. They don't make pipe wrenches angled that much. Other than those two details, It's 100% identical to the game.
