I'm gonna show my age here, but I have a fully functional original
still in one piece, mounted to a post next to my work bench.
Spent 19 years on one support post, 12 on another,
and the last 23 years in my current garage.
Still being used, still puts a clean point on my pencils.
Pencils and woodworking go together.

Giant, circa 1955

Everyone knows this is the insides of a screw blower.

Lysholm twin screw blower

Pencil sharpener.

I wish that you would stop posting fat cows in this thread. It’s not motivational to 90% of us.

Are referring to the fat cows, or the “Fat Cows”?

I call that road building gone wrong. Who had this thought?
“I know just the thing to make this super tight corner work. I’ll build it inside out with the bank on the inside, sloping towards the outside of the corner.”

Engineers….

It’s a forum not a college paper you twat

I know what it is I just don’t care. I live with a person with multiple masters degrees one being language arts(or however that works…never asked )amongst other things. I’m not watching how I say shit on here too.

At home though…

Does this guy you "live with", the person with the special degrees and shit, agree with the mentioned grammatical errors or not?

I have had one for somewhere around 30 plus years,, I love that point it leaves on a pencil,, usually crank 6 or so to get the shop job rolling!!

Regrettably, I left a fine specimen screwed to the wall of the shop I sold with my house. It would not actually point a pencil and I found that to be perfect. It left about a 1/32" cylinder face on a about a 1/16" cylinder. Otherwise, it was a smooth taper. I always considered it an engineering marvel and had owned it from a yard sale in 1980 for the exorbitant price of 25 cents. I most definitely didn't leave it behind on purpose. That one was an APSCO.

I am looking for a replacement.

4 litter, That's a nice size 2 stroke V8 . . a friend of mine had a couple of those ( i think Yamaha factory ? ) Outboard 2-stroke V8's on one of his boats. and it was a fucking badass .

[Bandit320]

That’s a newer sharpener. It doesn’t hold a candle to the one @justin amateur posted above. I have both.

I still have one of these, just like I used in grade school (I guess the Boston Co. was bought out by X-Acto).

But it sharpens like nobody's business!

That Delta Elite is probably older than she is.

Okay, just this one more picture of a boring old pencil sharpener…I mean supercharger blower. This one is in my not climate controlled garage. I had to clean it up before attempting a picture.

Like @justin amateur , I use it all the time. I’m guessing similar vintage based upon design of the base.

And the Delta Elite just makes this one THAT much better.

Seems to think $$$ means your ass can’t get beat. A common misconception of the privileged.

Is anyone gonna tell her not to mount a scope on the handguard......wtf.

Doc

Not until after a good bout between her eye and the scope

It’s a trick question. That’s a bicycle pedal. Just try riding barefoot with these.

Did anyone else notice the rack is not positioned correctly. The base of the triangle is not parallel to the short cushions. Plus it’s way too far forward.

One final thought: Tannerite cue balls

@Dirty D shaken it in a skirt. I don't know why that guy turned him down.

Timely.

I’m heading in to our HR Manager’s office in ~1/2 hour after today’s last synch meeting with my team to drop my 2-week’s notice. Was literally just waiting for today’s stock vesting to drop the mic.

And start my last two weeks vacation! LoL
