Jabor posted:is he actually intended-good nah, no way, i'm just being sarcastic as i can't think of a more clear-cut depiction of a monstrous kind of modern person. just a lot of people incapable of appreciating a book (or any media) without assuming that main character is intended good and admirable.

polyester concept posted:the coarse side is meant to only be used to get a very badly abused knife edge full of dents and nicks back to a regular shape. it's very abrasive and removes a lot of material. the fine side is what you use to get the edge. i have a lansky one like that and it gets my knife sharp enough for 90% of kitchen stuff. it's not as sharp as what you see on those insane videos where they go through 20 different grit whetstones because that is absurd. got an example video? id watch 20 whetstones

stanley's still fine in my experience. almost certainly not the same company as used to make the famous planes, and god knows who or what faceless brand management corp owns them now, but the stuff of theirs i've used is still fine. i think i'm gonna get a mitutoyo one to match my other fancy measuring equipment. surprisingly inexpensive

The lock on my Stanley fatmax is a little weak and the tape is only a couple of years old. I have a couple of older Stanley tapes from the 80s that are still fine though.

When I built ships I'd rescue all tools that were going in the bin so I have like 40 000 tape measures, noives, etc. Also some really heavy-duty springs ( ) and cool thermometers. And more expensive zipties than you can shake a penis at.E: they weren't going in the bin because they were bad, but because people are lazy and "I can get a new one from the tool gaol".

zipties go bad once they're opened so i hope you aren't using those expensive zipties on anything expensive!
