Fred B. La Crosse, WI DRILL PRESS: A tall upright machine useful for suddenly snatching flat met al bar stock out of your hands so that it smacks you in the chest and flin gs your beer across the room, denting the freshly painted project which yo u had carefully set in the corner where nothing could get to it. WIRE WHEEL: Cleans paint off bolts and then throws them somewhere under th e workbench with the speed of light. Also removes fingerprints and hard ea rned calluses from fingers in about the time it takes you to say, =98Oh sh =94 =98 ELECTRIC HAND DRILL: Normally used for spinning pop rivets in their holes until you die of old age. SKILL SAW: A portable cutting tool used to make studs too short. PLIERS: Used to round off bolt heads. Sometimes used in the creation of bl ood-blisters. BELT SANDER:An electric sanding tool commonly used to convert minor touch- up jobs into major refinishing jobs. HACKSAW: One of a family of cutting tools built on the Ouija board princip le. It transforms human energy into a crooked, unpredictable motion, and the more you attempt to influence its course, the more dismal your future becomes. VICE-GRIPS: Generally used after pliers to round off bolt heads entirely. If nothing else is available, they can also be used to transfer intense welding heat to the palm of your hand. OXYACETYLENE TORCH: Used almost entirely for lighting various flammable ob jects in your shop on fire. Also handy for igniting the grease inside the wheel hub out of which you want to remove a bearing race. TABLE SAW: A large stationary power tool commonly used to launch wood proj ectiles for testing wall integrity. (And the inside of my garage can prove it.) HYDRAULIC FLOOR JACK: Used for lowering an automobile to the ground after you have installed your new brake shoes, trapping the jack handle firmly under the bumper. BAND SAW: A large stationary power saw primarily used by most shops to cut good aluminum sheet into smaller pieces that more easily fit into the tra sh can after you cut on the inside of the line instead of the outside edge .. TWO-TON ENGINE HOIST: A tool for testing the maximum tensile strength of everything you forgot to disconnect. PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER: Normally used to stab the vacuum seals under lids or for opening old-style paper-and-tin oil cans and splashing oil on your sh irt; but can also be used, as the name implies, to strip out Phillips scre w heads. STRAIGHT SCREWDRIVER: A tool for opening paint cans. Sometimes used to con vert common slotted screws into non-removable screws and butchering your palms. PRY BAR: A tool used to crumple the metal surrounding that clip or bracket you needed to remove in order to replace a 50=C2=A2 part. HOSE CUTTER: A tool used to make hoses too short. HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is use d as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent th e object you are trying to hit. UTILITY KNIFE: Used to open and slice through the contents of cardboard ca rtons delivered to your front door; works particularly well on contents su ch as seats, liquids in plastic bottles, collector magazines, refund check s, and rubber or plastic parts. Especially useful for slicing work clothes , but only while in use. DAMM-IT TOOL: Any handy tool that you grab and throw across the garage whi le yelling =98DAMM-IT=99 at the top of your lungs. It is also, most often, the next tool that you will need. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 01:13:22 PM PST US From: Doug Dever Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: Covering question - drain grommets If you want more of a venturi effect use the seaplane grommets.
