Impulse bought these at Advance Auto Parts today.

Powerbilt screw extractor pliers and Titan Tools mini bit driver ratchet




However, the Powerbilt I'd been eyeing for months to adjust tools with knurled screws and other non-standard fasteners.  Engineer/Vampliers are likely better, and at $20 this was a little much for a pretty low grade China made tool. But, it does the job.

The Titan is Taiwanese made and really nice for $15. Bought it to EDC.

I got to play with my new toy out in the snow just now! We’re suppose to get up to 12” and I went out now because I had to clean a space for the kid to park because we’re in a state of emergency so he can’t park on the street or else you get ticketed, that and the one sidewalk was like 4” of sludge, like applesauce, it’s suppose to drop onto the 20’s tonight  so knowing my luck it would freeze and I’d be out there with a pick breaking everything up, anyway I must say this little guys a tank! Total power, shot everything long distance, and the blades turn so good it pretty much pulls it’s self!

Did ReamerPunch's mini ratchet review entice you to buy the Titan?
I have purposely avoided reading his reviews for the time being because I know it will make me buy one or more even though I already have 3   :whistle:   :D

Went to Wally World, yesterday, and picked up a couple of the Christmas gift sets, from Mossy Oak,  for $5.00 each.

Cheap knives at a cheaper price, but I WAS looking for another skeleton knife to wrap in paracord, so win-win.

KK, is the character something you came up with or is it supposed to be you or someone I'm unaware of?  I've wondered this but neglected to ask for some reason.


Mmmmm candies.

Many, many moons ago my High School Drama Club, of which I was a member, built a Mirror Dinghy during the summer holidays  :D

We named it Moloko Plus  :dunno: :whistle:

I've only seen the film once many years ago (and found it mighty disturbing  :ahhh) but I cannot for the life of me place the reference sorry  :oops:

Yup! The same film. We had a very "progressive" drama teacher.

We saw a lot of films that were banned (in the UK) and in their un-edited NSFW (or school) version.

He said "if you censor films it's a slippery road that leads to book burning"
The 80's were a great time to be a teenager  :tu: and he was a brilliant teacher  :drink:

Freaks is a classic  :tu:

70s/80s were a fabulous time to be young.  Thank you for the CWO figure.  I saw the film a long time ago.

Well teachers 'nowadays' (the 00s) are still reported, just not for cool reasons. My math teacher was a paedophile and my chemistry teacher/form leader was arrested for a dealer level weed farm, and the only film I remember being shown in class with any clarity was Kes  :facepalm:
