"Cow tools" arrive ( and gun)

[mhorowit]

Does anyone else remember Gary Larson's ("The Far Side") cartoon featuring "cow tools"? That's what it felt like when I opened the package with rivet gun, bucking bar, (and yes, the long thing turned out to be a hammer!) and the afore mentioned "cow tools", which turn out to be a collection of rivet sets, bizarrre in nature. I'll get with the guy who runs the EAA tool bin and ask him to walk me thru what I have, although a look thru Spruce was instructional - MIke

Be sure to pick up your non-magnetic, stainless steel and brass safety wire scraps...... save a cow!

LOL I grew up with those magnets as toys. Dad was a friend of the Vet and he would bring home ones pulled out from an autopsy ( I did not now where they came from) and my brother and I got years of enjoyment from them. Larry
