CRANK, Marko, you want a crank, mine has one. OK it's a homemade crank, and it's got yellow coating on it to make it easy to find when my stepson left it laying, but it's a crank, and I use it about once a month to roll the engine over a couple turns. I'll throw the crank in, and let you use my plasma to cut toe roof off the hurse when you arrive to pick it up.

Boilerman- that item has been renomenclatured, it's now the universal Metric/American adjustable wrench. We're trying to make the Europeeontheirshoe people happy you know.

Damn it Uncle Franz........You've always represented your SA200 to be a "creampuff". I'm getting to the point where I may just have to come up there and grab that thing !

"GRAB" = cutting that antique out of the weeds, figuring out how to get it back down to Florida, and actually cranking it up and see if it will run !

Damn it, I'm alway a day late and a dollar short, I wanted to throw in that crescent wrench crack, but boilerman beat me to it! Actually my machine shop teacher would have beat me sense-less (even more so than usual) for calling it that, it's an adjustable jaw wrench, crescent is a brand name like Heliarc. Down here the proper term is Mexican socket set

You probably would still be wearing the 12" adjustable wrench for an earring if he'd have seen you pulling on it in the wrong direction too. I got slapped up with the one I threw one day, in front of my Old Man as he reminded me tools have feelings too, and to use it properly. He damn well figured whaling on me was a proper use of a 10" crecent wrench, and I've still got it hanging on the wall to remind me.

Be nice to your baby brother Doc. Maybe he'll let you codrive the hurse up here. Just don't take him up on any offers to catch a nap in the back.

You never know, Doc....little bro may need to build a steel casket for some dear departed with a weight problem....a big problem.

A bobcat or ranger would do that nicely too......too bad it is a toy and not worthy of the welding world.
