Mould streatcher, thought He said Mould changer, went into the basement of the factory and woke up a grumpy mold changer, in the middle of the night. He laughed about it. |

... 'get me the left handed monkey wrench' ... ' use the calibrated G clamp' ... when I was office boy I got caught with the proverbial 'nip down to the welders shop they've got a long stand waiting for you'... an hour later welder sez 'haven't you stood long enough ' :lol: ... :Doh: :doh: ... Aaah; the good old days, :clap: :headbang: George. |

About 1950 my dad had a square hole drill bit for use on wood. It was longer than most, triangular, with a sharp point on each corner. It didn't require a special chuck but would just flex enough to make the square hole. I'm pretty sure that it didn't need a pilot square but could be mistaken. I saw it in use roughing out a mortise but don't remember specifics beyond what I've given here. It was used on a Shopsmith set up as a vertical drill press. Alan |

Enough of blue collar industrial humour! What about the white collar stuff: A third party would set up a meeting between two people in Avros and kindley warn each that the other was a bit deaf! Yes in 1974 we had open plan offices!! |
