Did you know that there are two kinds of cross-pointed screws and screwdrivers in common use in the United States today?
Chances are, if you own any tools at all, you own some of both.
Reed & Prince and Phillips.
Also, apparently they make toothless, gearless ratchets that work on spring or bearing tension. Cool, huh?
Somebody's Christmas list just got a little longer.
Also, we learned about what is called a Vixen file, which I had never heard of before. It's a deadly dangerous file about the size of a mill file designed for quickly removing soft metals from a structure. Yeesh. Dangeresque.
