Title: Random tool in the mail...
Post by: Magnus on January 20, 2010, 12:16:22 PM
The UPS guy shows up with this yesterday...   no return address.  WTF is it?  And nobody that I know (as far as I can tell) sent it to me...

It's a pipe clamp... The last time I used one it was to hold many pieces of wood together while they glue dried so I could make a striated board.

In a pinch (rim shot!) they make good swords.

When I'm drunk I text booty calls or try to order hookers, not random tools [roll]

Well it depends on how you ask.


Apparently, someone misunterstood something like "I need to get my nut off"

I have a couple and they are great for cabinet/built-in installation as they have rubber jaws and can be operated one handed.

I would have to say that if some-one sent you this as a nice way of telling you to be quite, they would have sent you one much smaller and cheaper. I'd keep it and put it to good use.

How many UPS guys does it take to screw in a lightbulb?











3

1 to break it, 1 to verify the claim, & 1 to deny the claim due to improper packaging. [laugh]

it wasn't even in a box...  someone just wrapped it in clear plastic and slapped a label on it with no return address.  still no clue where it came from.  but the next time i need to glue some wood together, i'm set... 

thanks!
