A million and one uses (emphasis on the one).

As a footnote, I happen to rather like Scotch 33.



(Scotch 23 and 69 also have their uses).

Oh, I'm well past the million mark in uses!!! There are some very important top-of-the-list ones though, and no I'm not listing them ALL! he he

Duct tape, WD40, a big hammer, a big screwdriver, vice grips...... the main tools in my tool box! :-)

No circuit tester and meter? Couldn't be without them.

I've got a Square D tester (old, but still works a treat) and a rather cheap multimeter - been promising myself a Fluke for far too long now.




Talking of Fluke. I was rather amused the other day, whilst watching the last episode (series one) of the new Battlestar Galactica, to find the marooned personnel using a "sensory device" that appeared to be little more than a Fluke Scopemeter . . .






I'm not entirely sure which model was used, but they do at least look the part, which is something that could not be said of the hair drier once use in Space 1999.

MORE SALIVATION, and I'll throw in a SLUUUUUUUUUUURP for good measure!!!

Do you know that you can use the bottles for hammers when you have finished drinking the sweet nectar inside?

Use them very, very carefully of course!
