The Useless Tools Thread

this - photos from about.com, that's not me.

All righty then.......I wasn't gonna say it but.....I know I work with some useless TOOLS!....they even spent money on buying a Engineering Degree! Just because you have the document...

 

These things, in particular these ones, you cant get any leverage on them, so you have to use a pair of pliers aswell. Then the damn black part fell out the end of a few of em now. Best getting the slightly larger ones with the rubber grip handles.

 

^^^^^^I have a set of these....only one of them has any value. Fits the screws in my glasses perfectly!

 

Sounds like my first BJ when I was 16.

 

This is a good thought to keep in the back of your mind... Thanks for the idea!

 

any of these or anything like them, they are usually sold in infomercials where the guy is throwing wrenches and sockets everywhere,out of the drawer, get some real tools lol.

 

Or my ex wife

 

I use the head band style probably twice a week. i work in sewer systems they work pretty good.

 

That would be 15mm!

 

I like those headlights too, I've been doing a lot of wiring under my dash and they sure come in handy,waiting for the bass fishermen to chime in about the headlights, I know several people who are up at 4 am getting the boat ready to go in the water, and they own a pile of those

 

I have the hat style. Hardly ever use it woring on a car but all the time when plugging stuff into the back of my antique under desk tower computer.

I'm thinking of buying both the crank up light and the cyclops headlight, combining them and then I would have a crank up headlight for the ultimate in fashion statement!

 

Drill Doctors...Theres two of them sumbitches laying in the woods behind my shop..Flung that first sucker shortly after trying to sharpen a boxfull of dull bits...only made em duller

Like a dumass ,went out and bought the SuperDeLuxe Overdrive 6speed neutron powered Drill Doctor...ruined the rest of the dull drill bits..so flung that puppy right down there in the woods next to its buddy

Found its a lot cheaper just to buy new bits

 

The headlamps are pretty handy up here .I use one all winter long .We get down to a couple of hours of day light up here so anytime I leave the house I make sure I have my Head lamp.

 

Those hat-lamps are also great for finding your treestand at 5:30 AM. Tree branches to the face aren't as fun as they sound.

I have the headband version also. It was issued to me, and it made working inside a pitch-black AC-130 Gunship easier, especially when you needed to use both hands. I have one in the glovebox of all my vehicles, never know when I'll need to change a tire or replace a slung fan belt in the dark on the side of the road by myself...

 

She probably didn't use it on her back!
