My Dad (being the hobbyist machinist that he is) would be horrified at seeing that pic.

Seeing a tool used in a horrific way instantly reminded me of a time when I was a small boy of about 14. I had a leather hole punch putting some holes in a piece of leather and was doing it on a surface plate. My grand-dad was watching me the whole time as I did the process about 6 times laughing each time until my Dad saw what I was doing and promptly gave me a clip round the back of my head and explained why.

Not once did my Grand-dad stop me to tell me what I was doing wrong, simply laughed... He was always a nasty spiteful horrible old bastard, good riddance to him he never made it to 100! [tonguewink] [tonguewink]

I think your grandad was just doing his job[emoji12]

My dad will do the same thing, until I see what’s going on and then yell and scream whilst he sits in the corner giggling with a beer in hand
Then tells me how much of a little **** I was at the same age and it’s payback [emoji848]
