Hand Tool

Salle Alphonse-Desjardins

5BGP5422

Shot for entry in two challenges, but then I realized it didn't meet the requirements for one of them. Oh well.

It's still a good fit for Macro Mondays Cogwheel theme.

Subject

An old hand-drill. I keep it on my boat so that I don't have to rely on battery power in case of emergency. Hand drills have saved my bacon more than once when sailing.

Lighting

It's the Sun. Really, really bright South Florida sunshine!

Lens

SMC PENTAX-FA Macro 100mm F2.8

It's a great lens for macro work, and a darn sharp telephoto to boot.

Garden Pruning Shears

And it feels so right...

For Macro Mondays -theme : Hand Tool

Old Fashioned Hand Drill

Here we see the male Gorilla teaching its young how to capture a Manfrotto Pixi. It's a tough world for these tripods I use as my go to tools. Without them my photos would be a blur.

This week's Macro Mondays effort, on the theme of 'Hand tool' brings us some old Britool sockets. HMM y'all!

Ok, so I've set upon this path of the 365ers. We'll see how it goes. :^/

It says, "pen is mightier than sword"; but, sometimes sword can be mightier than pen!

Korkenzieher / corkscrew

This is an M6 size thread cut with a die. Threads are hand cut using taps or dies : taps cut internal or female threads and dies cut external or male.

In the double sense of the word, and shot for Macro Mondays, theme "Hand Tool"

Fun photos

For Saturday Oct. 19, 2024.

A pair of locking pliers, more commonly called by the near generic name "vice-grips".

Hand tool used to strain or puree fruits and vegetables. Happy Macro Monday!

Nooooo!!!

I've been so busy with a new job role, away from home involving lots of rail travel, that I have not picked up with camera for some great HMM subjects for weeks - hence this week I have to revert to the archive.

Macro Mondays' theme for the 11th June 2018 is 'Handtool' hence today's subject matter.

Can you guess what kind of a handtool was imaged using brand new extension tubes here?

Macro Mondays theme : Hand tool

A tool used to tighten the chuck on a drill press.

ORIGINAL IDEA

GROUP: MACRO MONDAYS

THEME: HAND TOOLS

I used a +2 & a +4 closeup lens, then cropped.

Inspired by Marilyn Manson:

"Wrench is just a household god

But I carry mine with pride

I don't work but I can work with it to split your smile"
