Disgusting title. DISGUSTING.

I always kind of chuckled at the names of plumbing parts and tools, are names so old they came before slang. That's relatively modern rusty pipe wrench, my family passes down tools like some family's do photo albums

We have an 8 inch "BusyBee" jointer in our shop that looks like a twin for your powermatic jointer . Works very well.

I haven't seen a true Monkey wrench for years. Grandfather had one, last one I've actually handled. Probably still in his old tool kit that somebody inherited.

Reminds me of the time we sent the new apprentice down to the tool room to get a "left handed monkey wrench". An hour later he showed up with two wrenches he said "I found them on the back of the shelf. Had the classic wooden handles; one had LH carved into it and the other RH. He said "I brought them both in case you changed your mind. Looked like fresh carving. He had the last laugh.

And yet you clicked on the thread anyway...

Something you care to confess to?

I did not know that. I will be sure to tell him. Thank you for the head up - coldsteelva.

Production of such a 'weapon' is actually covered under the NFA as an 'Other Dangerous Weapon' and can be a serious federal offense if he gets caught and/or injures himself or someone else - especially with a metal pipe.

Can you find a link to support that? I've found a bunch of links that report they are not illegal as far as the feds are concerned, but local and state laws do apply in many places.

Did he pass the background check necessary to possess the potato?

Whatever - even if I have to tell a "little white one" - I like this "kid" and will tell him he could, possibly, be looking at serious trouble with LEO.

Potatoes - pretty sure we are OK there. Never ending supply comes from our neighbor to the East - Idaho.

You know - if he could tone it down a bit. New way to plant spuds without any tillage required.
