Names of Tools

Sometimes in the pits we yell out for tools we need. Some of these tools have their own name.

So far we have:
Stanley = Dead blow hammer
Alfonso = Big pop rivet gun
and Bill = Small pop rivet gun

I was sondering what some of the other teams call their tools and what they actually are.

Re: Names of Tools

Not really tools, but this year we found several heavy chunks of metal in our room. The largest of these chunks had a printed label on it, naming it "The Negotiator."

Re: Names of Tools

The hacksaw is named Sal, the wire stripper is called Shanaynay and the crimper is named Sheniqua. Sheniqua is the older sister of Shanaynay. Also...our angle grinder is named Big Red(it's big and it's red...and dangerous). Friedchickenisha is the jigsaw and our mini hacksaw it's called Ralph.
