Saturday Self-Challenge: Portray femininity or masculinity
A small sampling of the many tools my husband has in his large tool chest.
This set of screwdrivers were a novelty in a Christmas Cracker. But believe it or not I have used them.

This is a small multi tool that I won in a Christmas cracker once upon a time - without a doubt the most useful thing that ever came out of a cracker. For Macro Mondays 'Tool' theme.
An old hand or "eggbeater" drill. Still use in occasionally for fun and as a reminder of how everything took so much longer back then.
Surprisingly they are still available...
Does loads of stuff. Finger nipping useful.
Many thanks for all views and fav's - particularly comments!
All are greatly appreciated!
Happy Macro Mondays to you all!

More than 21,000 petroglyphs of people, birds, animals, plants, as well as numerous geometric and abstract designs are scattered along a volcanic basalt rock ridge in a valley on the west side of the Sacramento Mountains. The petroglyphs here date to a period between 200-1450 AD and were made by the Jornada Mogollon people using stone tools to remove the dark patina (desert varnish) on the rock exterior. This image of the Bighorn Sheep hit by three arrows is the best known and most photographed at the site.
Hello Valeria, what are you doing?
Uhmm, tooling?
You know what this wheel is for?
Yes, of course, it's for... thingy. You know?
Copying sewing patterns.
That's what I said!
So you're copying your boyfriend?
I... uhmm... he needs new clothes. Yes, totally new clothes, with being nekkid and so.
Yes I see. Can't be running around like that, this being a safe group.
Exactly! Glad you understand!

No sewing pattern copy thingies were harmed in the making of this picture.

Mid 1950's Simplex Automatic
Simplex was founded by Paul Treen (father of United States Congressman and Louisiana Governor David Conner Treen) in New Orleans, Louisiana in the late 1920s with an initial investment of $25.00 Treen had been a dealer in Harley-Davidson motorcycles and had pitched them the idea of making a lightweight motorcycle for young riders. When Harley-Davidson rejected the idea, Treen decided to enter the market himself and designed his Servi-Cycle. The Simplex Servi-Cycle was introduced in 1935.
Although Simplex Manufacturing Corporation produced motorcycles for over 20 years, the last Simplex Automatics looked almost the same as the company's original 1935 Simplex Servi-Cycle motorcycle. Paul Treen would often visit the factory's tool shop and work with the engineers on new ideas himself, resulting in continuous improvements to Simplex products instead of annual new model introductions.
The two-stroke engine had a rotary valve and an "overhung" crankshaft with only one main bearing. A kick-starter was added by 1953.
Western Auto sold Simplex motorcycles under the Wizard brand in the mid-1950s.
Simplex's minimalist philosophy was maintained throughout the company's history, whose designs changed little after 1935. By the 1950s Simplex's designs were primitive, leading to the end of Servi-Cycle and Automatic production in 1960. Simplex continued to make minibikes and karts using proprietary small engines until 1975, when Simplex went out of business. Treen had sold the company three years earlier, in 1972

Todays challenge for the daily shoot was, What tools do you use and appreciate on a daily basis? Make an interesting photo of one such tool today.
Well I considered taking a shot of some of the tools out of my toolbox I keep in my office, but then thought about it, there really for decoration as I do not do hands on tech work any more so when I thought about it I had to get a shot of these, Not sure I appreciate the blackberry, but I am addicted to it and would be lost without my android Nexus one cellphone
Of course beingme I slipped in a little bit of reflection
Update on Dr's visit, it went well, not likely i will need surgery, it sees the problem is something I have had all my life, basically my knees are deformed and my knee cap doesnt sit where it should, so I start on Physical therapy on Monday twice a week for 6 weeks which hopefully will alleviate or ease the issues I have had
