Show Us a Tool

Here it is in action holding my broken battery bracket.
It took forever to get all the hands holding.
You'd attach one and another would pop off.
I screwed it to a block of wood as a base.

I removed the "lead" from a pencil (graphite) and shaved it into a powder then sprinkled it into Crazy Glue to mend the break.

I put in over 3000 km since the mend and it still looks good,..

No I ended up sandwiching it with glue traps

Never thought of doing that... How'd it taste?

That is some Mc Gyver stuff man ^.

I have a simple vise. It's very handy.

My vise is bigger than your vise.

I Put in a plastic garbage bag for disposal.
Probably taste like chicken nuggets

I don't use my vise that often. One of the uses is for unseating beads on my Eddy Current tires. Stans sealant for some reason glues the tire beads to the rims and it's difficult to remove when I perform tubeless sealant refresh.

Kraft Slices and butter work great as a gluing agent.
They stick to feet.
butter brings the into the
The rats willingly join the sandwich.

That's not how you make them. You need a panini press or the rat squirts out of the bread the first chance it gets.

I had a girlfriend in the 90's that had a pet rat.
That rat was cool !!

We could have easily posed it for a sandwich picture, especially if we gave it cheese and peanut butter.

About a year later, my girlfriend and I went fishing and we caught a fish with the hook caught in deep.
I ended up with a big drop of fish blood on my shorts.

We got home and I was playing with the rat and it Went FRICKEN NUTS !!!

It Attacked the blood spot on my shorts! I pushed it off my lap a half dozen times.

When it was all over, the rat calmed down and I had a hole in my shorts where the rat ate the entire blood spot and material.
Fricken 's

I think 's are a lot like 's ??

They can be great friends, but you don't want to chum the water.

I've got WAY bigger vices than that. Just ask my wife.

 

[Rexlion]

Need a drink to wash that sandwich down...

I decided to buy new battery brackets.

My bottom battery bracket was completely smashed.

What a piece of junk.
They use crappy plastic.
They should be made out of nylon.

The new one is going to be junk too, so I'm going to reinforce it from the backside with glue and graphite.

some of the tool I used to make.

 

[PCeBiker]

It's a piece of junk!!

I screwed my third hand to my work bench.
I haven't tried it yet, but I think that it will work better now.

I burned my fingers holding a plug yesterday while I soldered it, so I thought I'd give it another try.

I'm throwing it out if it's still an annoying piece of crap.

Or you can keep it and let it hold your spliff while you work.

I'd need something bigger to hold my spliffs.
I grow really big plants so I roll really big joints.

I was going to make some hash brownies and leave them out for but my plant isn't ready yet.

I made an e-bike flipping tool,..

I was flipping my e-bike by grabbing it in the middle at the down tube and seat tube and flipping in the air to turn it over.
It still weighs ~70 pounds without the battery and tool bag.

I remember seeing a guy flip his bike upside down by holding the rear brake and pulling up and back on the handlebars to roll it over onto the seat.

I tried it last year, but my rear fender hit the ground and I would have crunched it.
So,...

I strapped a 2x4 to my rack that sticks out further than the fender,..

It works great. Way less effort.

It rolls over easy now.
I don't have to lift it to flip it.

It pivots from the tire to the 2x4 to the seat.
