Cue the Soup ****!!!!

This was the way I was taught.

I have used an automatic center punch for many years to do that. If the hit is too light, then hit it on 4 sides. Better than any liquid thread locker you can name. Yet the nut can be removed by tools.

Hey it worked! I tried to video it to post but it took two hands. I had to hold one string tight and to the right, while pulling on the other to unzip it. I didn't have a third hand to document it. :laughing: So... no YouTube for you!

You have teeth don't you ?

My Dentist says never use your teeth as tools!!!

Guess I won't be locking anymore threads with my teeth .

Teeth are the ultimate survival tool....!

On the topic of "threads"...

When pressed, the tailor, a material witness in the suit came apart at the seams. His altered testimony completely unraveled. The tale he had woven had been a complete fabrication...!

This thread has only a thimbleful of humor . It's shear madness. Let's cut it out. Time to find a new pattern. Now I'm gonna bolt...!

You're welcome!

Now someone explain to me the trick to getting a sack open, such as one has been stitched at the top like a bag of lump charcoal or briquettes. I 'seam' to remember it was as simple as pulling a 'rip' cord. I can't figure out how it's done now. :confused3: :mur:

Yeah, maybe this belongs in the 'you know your'e getting older thread' :laughing:

Single thread towards you, start from the left. Double thread towards you, start from the right.
