They didn't work how I intended them to work for the application I thought I could use them for...like screwdrivers and pry bars or chisels, hammers as scrapers, Crescent wrenches for all bolts and nuts, etc.
There'* enough tools in my lake to fill a tool chest. You can also have all the swear words tat come with them....there still handing in the air over my place after I unleashed them with the tools.

And you know after 40 years, to this day I find myself letting a worn pair of Channel Locks do this to me. Great Thread Todd!

Or when I have to do something really STUPID to do something easy. Like remove the alternator to change one spark plug on a grand caravan, or remove a stud on a motor mount to change a supercharger belt.

I've avoided that so far....knock on wood. I was leaning over my 79 Camaro'* fender and adjusting the distributor while the car was running. Came in contact with a plug/wire combo with my nuts against fender. Thought I got kicked in the junk by a Clydesdale.....those swear words are still hanging in the air at my old place.

Now I'm laughing, not at you, will, ok, ya I'm laughing at you. When I was in school for automotive I had a timing light, and couldn't get a good angle. I touched the high voltage lead and it shorted in to the metal gun, which I had in my hand, I pulled back, and hit myself in the face. I then stood up saying a few choice words only to hit my head on the hood. I didn't like that car any more.
