Good stuff. When is MeFi going to introduce a 'Tool of the Week' feature? posted by Abiezer at 4:17 AM on August 26, 2009

Well, there's MeTa...
You can see way, WAY cooler tools than these, with authentic grime, at a flea market near you every week. Of course, they don't have any identification and the guy behind the table speaks only in Grunt from behind a 6 foot beard so you'll have to figure out what the tools are yourself... posted by DU at 4:42 AM on August 26, 2009
Considering this guy's worship of tools, I'd love to see his expression when we slip a 6' long pipe over the end of a wrench to increase leverage when trying to loosen a nut that refuses to budge. After he's pleading for us to stop, we'll fiendishly grind down the outside of a socket that's a little too big to go into the area surrounding the head of a bolt. And for good measure, we'll weld someone's initials onto the side of a wrench so no one can steal it. posted by digsrus at 5:41 AM on August 26, 2009 [2 favorites]
If this locking adjustable wrench actually worked it would be awesome. I'm guessing lack of a modern version means better in theory than practise. posted by Mitheral at 2:03 PM on August 26, 2009
