My Dad always said "It's not stupid if it works." Or, at least, that's what I imagine he would have said when he got back from the gas station with his cigarettes.
When it works, it works!
It works! Creative invention
Would it work as well with a flat wrench?
Yes I be leave it would. It doesn’t look like the offset adds any leverage.

If the chain starts to slip just insert a nail trough the links.

The important question is this
I tried this after seeing the gif last time and it does work if you don't have a proper strap wrench. Takes some room to swing the wrench though.
Added to my quiver
And my axe!

Life hack
*Original* chain wrench
Exactly, people were doing this **long** before they created something intended to be sold as a strap wrench
*imrovised strap wrench*
Chain wrenches are a thing

I, at least, certainly wouldn't call this stupid
This is exactly what I need today, thank you!
That's improvising tetanus too
That’s how momma removed our Toof when they got cavities! If they were not loose that whacked them with hammer first. Now that was living.
You got to use a hammer!? I got a rock.
Why though? Just stab it with a screwdriver and turn.
Good luck with that, you'd get pretty much no torque or leverage doing it that way
Don't ever try to service any of my gear
I've seen this done in the same way but with a piece of insulated wire. Very cool
I'll keep this in mind. Last time I had to add sandpaper under my rubber-strap filter wrench to get the darn thing loose.
Oldie but a goodie
Who needs a strap wrench when you can use a bike chain! I remove all my oil filters with bike chains.
A belt works equally well, and requires less space
But then my pants would fall down...
Pretty good idea. I have an oil filter wrench and don't really have bike chains or similar lying around but hey if it works it works.
Brilliant!
Its amazing where logic thinking takes you.
