Thank you Lynn. Some of us handy men have used a lot of tools. I would have gotten the correction film and the pipe wrench. I have several sized of those pipe wrenches. Well here is another tool to make us feel old. I even used one today. What is this?

Reminds me of some of the stands we used for holding glassware and such in chem lab in high school and college.

Oh crap! Did I say that out loud?

Yes you did. Stand yes but not for glassware. It's much bigger than that.

We have a winner! Yes it's a 1920's vintage bike repair stand. The one I used is a little newer. PM sent.

I didn't expect that to be an ice pick. I wish I'd said it.

Gordon and Donald said the first two things I thought of for the previous one.
