A quality handsaw beats most

A top burton is rove in the same manner as a luff-tackle purchase; the only difference is, that the upper block of the burton is a fiddle block, while that of the luff is a double one.

Sorry, no cigar, we ain't talking literature..

From my childhood I seem to remember, "Wodya mean - can't shift it? Where's me Bentley 'alf shaft". I think the man's name was Ham Stilson.

I would suggest that a good anvil takes a bit of beating.

Is that a pun or what? :-))

No, a pun is a play on words. An anvil is a large piece of iron that you put things on when you want to hit them :-)

Sense of humour not your strong point then?

Actually yes, but try and keep it musical..

Ah well an emmission tester may enter the top ten then.

I used a make-shift anvil to fix my laptop's power pack once.

It is best to work apun the anvil, if you try holding things beneath it's quite awkard to get a good swing going.

What about the brain. Is that a high fidelity tool?

Only when it has been carefully adjusted by the skilled application of a Stilson... ;-)

It just struck me that'd hurt.

AKA water pump pliers? I've got a set specifically as nutcrackers.
