I've only ever broken (in that manner) one Craftsman tool that I can recall. It was a 36mm socket that I was using to remove the rear axle nut from a Beetle. Put the breaker bar on it. Nothing. Put a pipe on the bar. Nothing. Moved the bar around so it was parallel to the floor and jumped up onto the end of it with both feet. *Crack* That stuff seems like their "breaking feature" has been deleted at the factory. Then I use a 4 foot long pipe as a cheater bar, and "crack" the nut loose. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...87b297a2a2.jpg |

https://www.imperial-newton.com/striking+wrench.htm Used in putting together steam turbines. A sledge hammer was used to tighten the nuts on the studs. Then studs had through holes that then allowed them to be heated with torches or electric heaters, in order to expand (lengthen the bolts). Then the nuts were hammered around so many more flats. See the link for how massive some of these wrenches were (are). |

"An amazing historical photo...this early image showing the early test flights of the F-14 "Tomcat" during the American Civil War.
Some question the authenticity of this photograph, as it is widely known that the 6 pounder 1841 Model Gun, the workhorse of Mexican War, was considered obsolete by Civil War. You be the judge..." https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...6da92e7ecc.jpg |

I have learned, as a result of this thread, that Google is all-knowing...

Yup, it's been 20 years since Chumbawamba released their hit. Tubthumping came out before this year's crop of high school seniors. It's officially an oldie.
Insert Brainey claiming that he was a better drummer in 4th grade. (Skip to 2:10 - 2:45 for especially glaring examples of mediocrity) |
