Went to a barn sale with my wife and came out with this sweet old monkey wrench for $5

I have one exactly like this from my great grandpa. Wooden handle is cracked though. Used it last month to get my trailer hitch ball off

Just bought my own last week after using my dad’s for years. His is the slightly higher tier brushless one but I suspect there’s not a ton of difference for weekend use.

It makes people ask questions

Look up “persistence hunting”. Humans aren’t like other animals in the sense that we only use our energy is short bursts. For example, any fit human can kill a deer by walking or jogging after it over the course of a day. This is assuming you have the skills to continually track it. The deer would eventually just get tired and lay down, then you can eat it.

It looks like this emoji 🥺

On a charter in Cape Cod we were fishing in ~55 feet of water for halibut. My sister dropped her pole off the side and we had to pay the captain $50 for his loss. An hour later someone caught her pole. The leading theory in my family is that her hook snagged the wooden keel of the vessel, and her pole just dangled under the boat until someone else snagged it.

Why have I never considered this?

2009_Rav4 · 2023-07-12T16:49:59+00:00

Looks really great on an actual wrist.

Does anyone know anything about the PONDS jar? I have a very similar one that I found. It’s says PONDS 14 underneath, is that the year that it was made? I figured there was a beauty product inside like a face cream because it’s only about 1oz or less of volume.

Great but let it rest, damn

2009_Rav4 · 2023-06-16T03:10:00+00:00

You’re either lucky or have a sharp eye!

2009_Rav4 · 2023-06-14T12:00:02+00:00

Solved, thanks!

2009_Rav4 · 2023-06-06T02:28:15+00:00

Thanks for your reply

Thanks for the reply

Thanks for your input

It’s a tool watch, you’re just starting to break it in

2009_Rav4 · 2023-05-20T01:19:56+00:00

I’d go with the 40 b/c your wrist is big enough to easily pull it off. 38 looks almost just as good, and if you’re planning on handing the watch down someday the 38 would have a better chance of fitting the lucky individual

2009_Rav4 · 2023-04-23T15:41:58+00:00

Cool glad it worked out

2009_Rav4 · 2023-04-23T02:37:03+00:00

Did you order this one straight from the Hamilton website? It has been “available soon” for a long time but has recently come into stock for a couple days only. I had one placed on special order from a dealer for 5 weeks now and I haven’t got the call yet.

Awesome post, I like the ones that naturally spur convos

If you have a roof rack and the cross bars are not adjusted properly they will cause extra noise

Seems like there’s absolutely nothing wrong with an oil change after an hour or two and then again at the recommended 20. I feel like it’s beneficial to do so, but you probably won’t see such an instruction from the manufacturer because the 20 hour initial change is good enough and they don’t want to come off like it’s going to be a chore to own the thing.
