Thought for the day:

"Every tool has a hammer side"

Reminds me of the time when the Navy instituted a tool control program Navy-wide in the mid-60's due to the number of FOD accidents related to tools left behind on aircraft. A great deal of training went into tool accountability and senior enlisted personnel were put in charge of tool rooms.

As the story goes, "Hey Chief, gimme a wrench!"

Chief replies "Son, you've had all the training so tell me what wrench you need."

Young Airman exclaims "I don't care, make it a big one. I'm gonna use it as a hammer anyway."

I recently found out that some of those plastic handled crowbar/chisel tools can be used for installing and removing screws! What a crazy world.

Eric O. is a great guy and I've spent a lot of time watching his videos and learning.
