Went to look for a flat headed screwdriver to open a can of lacquer and after finding 12 Philips head screwdrivers I found a flathead... I swear these things can sense what I need and all run away. |

This is a law of physics.

This is a law of physics. | Either that, or the only flat head around is coated with an inch of hardened paint from the last time you used it  |

Who in their right mind makes a tool that is designed to spin around, and requires that you keep it centered, lest it LEAVES THE THING IT IS SUPPOSED TO TURN BY ESCAPING ITS OWN RECEPTACLE.

| | | | man, tell me about it - I can only seem to find the putty knife when I DON'T need it
whenever I need it, I end up searching for 20 minutes, not finding it, and use a butter knife instead

| | | | Don't feel bad, After just short of turning the house upside down looking, I had to go buy a couple new pipe wrenches the other day. Apparently the 2 I thought I owned grew legs and ran away from home.
As for screwdrivers, these days it pays to keep some JIS drivers in assorted sizes handy.
