the true racists won't stop it because perpetuating the violence and division keeps them in power.

money machines run day and night counting and printing.

All pipe wrenches have sloppy action or they dont work as pipe wrenches because they wont let go when you go the opposite direction.
the other difference is the handle... much smaller cross section on the old one...
it digs into your hands more than a newer one...

were it my only wrench, id wrap that with alot of tape...
They look nearly identical to me. Handle looks the same width with just the ridges being wider probably to keep the handle from bending. The threading is the same, so the slop is probably the same. They all get sloppier with time.

The new one and the old one look like pretty much every pipe wrench I've ever seen since about 1980. And from what you describe they still work exactly the same. Not sure what 'modern tools' youre talking about taking more adjustments. They dont. Theyre still pipe wrenches.

i was refering to the fact that THIS particular old wrench had FAR MORE SLOP than any of the MORE modern tools im farmiliar with...

in this case,
it allowed me to screw a nipple that crushed due to age and rush WITHOUT having to readjust the mouth each time as the fat vs this profile of the oblonged nipple came around AS the range of size the wrench was able to grip was obvious wider than my aluminum wrench...

i attributed this extra "slop" to design, not wear

using my aluminium pipe wrench id have had to adjusted the mouth every other turn and it would have taken 4 times as long to get that nipple unscrewed.

i dont have a picture to show it but, the cross sections of this old wrenches handle would show much smaller compared to my aluminums

this was noticable when i really had to bear down pulling it and it cut into my fingers in a painful way that i never experienced with my own more recently manufactured tool

I squeezed these pair of pliers one time and they slipped and pinched me.

watched him fall of the stage at the house of blues years back
first thing he doesn
is tell some woman " nice shoes lady

next he stand up and looks at me
i watch his eyes try to focus


"sorry about the band sammy"
he finally spits out


couldnt tell if he was goofing or actually thought i was who i looked like at the moment


he was playing a black acustic guitar
was fucking imaculate

its only embelishment was
one red traffic reflector

stan ridgeway
